  1. What lurcher and terrier shows are left go in Scotland?
  2. it is legal and humane to let a bird catch and kill which in my opinion would be a slower and more painful death than with a dog. And anyone with chickens lambs etc cannot dig them on there land! it is only so the the big money makers can protect there big money on there estates. Favouritism!! The countries a fcucking joke!!!
  3. I can see the point here. I love coursing but the one thing I hate about it is killing hares! If I could let everyone go after it's caught i would.
  4. how do youse get it out the den once yous have dug down or out of the net without it having a go at you
  5. well there is where im going wrong already . thanks for the advice
  6. Exeter devon mate to far mate, shame i like the sound of that breeding and the look af the dam. atb with the pups
  7. taking it out stock breaking and getting it used to scents in my eyes is a must. being new to the terrier game i am just wondering what can wisen the pup up.things like ragging a tail or carcass and watching digs. i was told get them to rats when there adult teeth are in then others say rats and rabbits ruin fox dogs. whats your opinions?
  8. Nice looking dog mate what age is he? How many do you work?
  9. Thanks guys, that's the kind if thing I'm talking about ie ragging the tail and stuff. The clay pidgin club is a good idea to as I will use him for beating aswell
  10. Has anyone got any tips for bringing a pup on from an early age? I know you should let a pup b a pup but what can I include in there play to help bring there instinct out and give them better chance to hone there skills for when the time comes to enter.
  11. Is there any books out there solely about working border terriers, there seems to be ones for jrt bedlingtons, fells, lakelands etc?
  12. the pups coming on a treat!

  13. does anyone know if the working border terrier club is still up and running? i think it was started by jonny bluck. i could be wrong tho
  14. Ok fair point, the argument was whats harder to catch. I was saying to catch a fox properly I would say that a neck or shoulder bit takes more skill and technique than catching a rabbit anywhere although the rabbits are faster
  15. So no discussing anything relevant to the topic then or that makes you a fanny??
  16. I'm talking about ones that grab by the shoulders or neck not ones that grab the back end and shake from there. What I'm saying mate is in my opinion I like a dog to grab it's fox top end and take the least amount of punishment, that's what takes more skill n technique. Hey they not all do it and if your happy with the way your dog does it good for you.
  17. So a good fox dog grabs anywhere and gets bit to fcuk?? Not my idea if a good fox dog then!
  18. But I would say fox is harder to catch and dispatch
  19. Some rabbits that have been lamped lots are like mini rockets, seen some take off at amazing speeds. The dog needs quicker reactions at a faster speed and to strike anywhere will do whereas on foxes the dog slows down a good bit to time his strike and it has to b placed precicely orvits a sore face for him.Different techniques are needed for both. But both as exciting as the other
  20. I thought there would b alot more said about them, I wonder what percentage of the terriermen use them compared to other breeds and what makes the other breeds better then?
