Due to injury I had to give up working terriers a couple of years back. I lived in hope that I'd be fit enough to get back at it, but that just isn't going to happen. I have a bit of gear to sell off... Aluminium top loading triple terrier quad box and matching 42 inch tool box, a black plastic front opening Dog Transport triple terrier box, a red Mammut Barryvox locator, a BCA Tracker 3 locator, 2 Bellman collars with magnets and chargers, 2 terrier stakes, chain and quality Biothane/brass collars, a bag of high quality fox nets and aluminium pegs. All in used but perfect working order. Ideal

Only if we run with that attitude. It would be completely different. They've learned the loopholes and closed every one of them in this proposal. English and Scottish MPs have already come out to say they're watching with interest because if this is passed it would make it easier to bring the rest of the UK in line.

As some will know we're up against it again in Northern Ireland with an Alliance minister putting forward a proposal for banning the hunting of mammals with dogs. Essentially they've taken the principles of the Blair ban and closed every loophole in it. If it goes through it will be illegal to even hunt a rabbit with a spaniel. No terrier work, no lurcher work, not even trail hunting. There is a public consultation currently running that needs 60% vote in favour for the bill to be considered. The usual antis have been casting it wide and far for support. Please take a moment to complete it to

Thank you? I do have a picture of the sire but he's not mine so wouldn't share without the man's permission.

Thanks? Yeah, I kept a dog pup back for myself. Hoping he will continue in the footsteps of his mother.

My old lass. She's getting on now and has been a real hard working and reliable sort. A pleasure to own. I've just had a litter out of her before it was too late and hopefully her son will graft as much as she has. The ad for the last three pups is in the classifieds if anyone is looking for a decent pup.

Hit or miss with rifle... That's laughable. My whole point was, that is not the case with modern technology available. Even with only a lamp and a retard behind the trigger, you've another few rounds in the magazine and a couple of hundred meters to follow up. That chap that took 501 evidenced every single fox so gave no reason not to believe it. I wouldn't have posted it otherwise. Sitting round cover with shotguns on every viable exit is as bad as rifling them in my opinion. There's a 50/50 chance with a lurcher and if the terriers are as shite as your saying, sure the fox will never be dug.

I'd love to meet the cover man and his dog that took 501 foxes in a year like the individual and his rifle I posted before. You are saying the rifle men are only trying to stay legal. Running foxes with a lurcher is legal in Ireland, shooting less than 60 feet from the centre of a public highway is not. Neither is it legal to discharge a firearm on ground you do not have permission to do so. A big number of rifle men are operating on the wrong side of the law so don't try and preach that.

This is just the tip of the iceberg lads. There are few on that site that took under 100 last year. Here's one from the UK to give an idea of what I'm on about. They're keeping skulls and having them measured for medals... just to add to the boasting rights.

Saying there will be breeding stock where these lads can't reach is foolish. There is nowhere they can't reach now. They drive for hours in country they know nobody, never have to put a lamp on and shoot anything they see. All thermal spotters and night vision scopes. If there's anywhere they can't see into, they turn on their call boxes that have every call possible from squealing rabbit to vixen in heat. The latest trend is to set up feeding stations and just sit and wait for the foxes to roll in for an handy dinner. With prey numbers down it's an easy gig. There's a few who have genuine rea

That's just one Irish lads post from either side of Christmas.

There's a seriously noticeable decline in the numbers over the last few years up North since the rifle technology has hit the market at working man's prices. Lads on a lamping foxes FB page at Christmas crying about only getting a couple for the month of December when he had 30 last year and 80 the year before. The same lad that posted pictures of milky vixens and cubs shot at the mouth of the den. What hope is there? Another lad on from down Dublin way that shot over 100 in December alone! Where's the sport in plugging an animal from 200 yrds away that hasn't a notion you're there because of

The chaps on here, take it up with him and quit spouting the same rhetoric over and over. Username 1of1. He just posted one of his dogs registered on the website in show us your paterdales topic. It wasn't difficult to make the connection! Dogs going for stupid money with all sorts of ridiculous pedigrees attached is not limited to Paterdales or working terriers. If there's stupid buyers with more money than sense, you'll find sellers willing to take it off their hands. A suggestion would be to build a bridge and get over it, worry about what's in your kennel and not what others are doing.

I have one here you can have. Drop me a PM with where to post it to.

Have a search of Car Cane Mobility Aid on Google. There's a few types between Argos and EBay. Handy contraption to give another handle to getting on and out.

As the saying goes... better looking at it than looking for it. A hacksaw would soon sort your length issue. It was the shape that makes them ideal for the job, better hold in any ground than a round peg. Cheers.
