Querried it ,New guy taken over ,not Appropiate..? this is in a BOOK Shop that you could access anything from Anal sex to Murdering your Granny !!!! sometimes it's not the chain but the STOCK guy/Girl just not ordering them in ...Antis get into positions were they can F**K things up ..like a 5th column.. :cray: Hunters on the other hand tend to Keep the Head Down and Mouth shut ..well most :icon_redface:

    Had a couple of borders down through the years with full tails,never stoped them from working and they were never in any discomfort,not tail wise anyway,lol,but gun dogs are different,Springers,Cockers with long tails are a pitiful looking site after a hard days beating cover plus they also work in places where drains and such are full of bacteria so an open wound on the end of the tail is not very healthy for the dog imo.A spaniel with a nice docked tail will fare a lot better.

    exactly fat man i have worked a few borders and have one now and it does them no harm at all having a long tail

    Would you not Agree the way a Borders tail is "SET" gives it abit more leeway...maybe not seen alot of Borders..the Working ones ,I have seem to me when Tails are wagging are low and to the Rear of them ....not up and above ,like most other breeds.. that would be constricted in a tight tube with the tail rubbing the Top :hmm: maybe wrong in my conclusion..The " SET "of the tail is what will effect a "Working" terrier rather than length..

    J777 statements ....he never mis- frased it Wrong ..Just got it TOTALLY WRONG.... :nono: an as for BRIAN...He has filled so many YOUNG heads with sh**.he has undone what he, as a TEACHER should have being doing ...EDUCATING..All who have taken onboard his "WISDOM" that I have come across..SEEM only Interested with FAME & FORTUNE..,but dont have his "CHARISMA/SHOWMANSHIP" he was the Master of SELF-Interest..

    KJ.. no one was Making any Judgement on yourself ....If you had READ my post ,it was a QUESTION on your Change of Position,from having Previously Docked your Plummers and your Decision Not to NOW ..."Dog From Scotland" Question Answered..!

    I never Implied you had Anything against DOCKING ...the guy is not getting "STICK" for having not Docked Dogs....It is for his "BARBARIC PRACTICE "quote..for someone to work Terriers ..and come out with that :huh: ...Beggers Belief..Bear is more than welome to take up his offer ...I would be looking over my shoulder .If that is his ATTITUDE.. Sounds like some Modern day ,HOBSON.... ;)

    All these SMALL CONSESSIONS lead to bigger controls... I.M.O. the welfare was never an issue ,Regarding Docking .....It was about " IDENTIFICATION " who worked their dogs and who never ! one look and you could tell Who the Bad guys were ..bit like the old Forest laws, who the plebs were...

    Ps. It is NOT ILLEGAL to own a Docked dog in Scotland...the U.K. is joined for the most part ,so nothing stopping anyone up here HAVING or giving Docked dogs BACK down to ENGLAND... ;)

    KEITH J.....I think Johnny 7up. brought that responce on HIMSELF..Tail Docking BARBARIC...iI believe he quoted!!! now if he BELIEVES this and not on a "Windup" then ,what is his Opinion of TERRIERWORK going to be :icon_eek: His FELLOW :hmm: Terriermen ....Barbarians ...The Border keeps getting mentioned,for example of a Terrier with a Tail "Working " The Old style Border & Xs' have and Had the Supple back to turn in a Tight space .I.M.O. not hindering them ,a Coby new type "Show" will find it harder I believe..Not alot of them ,going to ground ....

    You have Jumped to the Guys Defence..Admirable,for and unusual for a "PLUMMER" owner..your position changing on TAIL DOCKING ,hasn't got anything to Do with your Choosen breed going down the K.C. route and being not allowed to show & sell docked Stock ,would it ?

     

    The Distance in which the GENERAL public is from STOCKMANSHIP ,animal Welfare is VAST !!

    they have lost sight or have never seen Practices that are Both HARMLESS to new born stock And for their WELFARE ..most Stockmen are by NATURE not Oggres ,that Carry out Duties for the Hell of it ....THERE IS USUALLY GROUNDS and GOOD ones at that for their decisions.... :yes:

    The ATTITUDE towards certain practice in Terrierwork...is I.M.O. WHY certain BREEDS never get of the GROUND & get Worked ,full of folk Bending to the whims of Antis' & the K.C. following suit ..Give an INCH or two ,you Give a MILE .......

    in Earthdogs & Working Terriers

    Posted · Edited by Tam O'Void

    your dog could be in a tiny run but get out for 4 long rubs per day sonebody else could have a great big kennel run but the dog never gets out the condition of the dog won't lie so if RSPCA say he's in good nick that's good enough

    That's BOLLOX mate......When did they BECOME the Guardians/Enforcement agency, of the Dog world :hmm: Show them the door..

    THEY ARE A F*****N CHARITY when are folk going to get their HEADS round this ...NO POWERS.....yes they Can make things difficult ,BUT you can MAKE things DIFFICULT for them... :wallbash:

    Dog Gifted...It's Yours .IMO.. If it didn't work out for You..then he gets first offer of a Return..if it's going elsewhere..

    No way should he be expecting a RETURN..where you BABYSITTING it for Him !!!! Rank out of order....But with Dogs anything goes with some folk !
