I don't remember anything decent coming off him. There was nothing related to henry to breed too either way . There was a big price tag for a service off him aswell which was f***ing wrong which only inflated his owner's ego henry was too hard for his size he made life hard on himself.

He was alright.........your old dog

Don't think theres much about off vinny left. One very good dog in tipp with his blood in him and throwing workers aswell but that's all I know of really. Vinny was a good one.

Exactly. The ones I've seen have been mental in kennels. You wouldn't even have known this boy was in the place and his father is a right c**t in the kennel I believe

Some fine working dogs lads. I wouldn't know much about the ac line being honest all mine are from the previous line we were on about but a couple of seasons ago a young dog was given to me who needed work he was a soldier grandson. I didn't need the dog in any way shape or form but I had seen him work from the start and liked the dog and the man that offered him to me was my father in law so I took him on. He was the easiest dog to kennel and just lived to be worked the dog was lost to ground in his 3rd season and had dug a lot of game up to that point working everything in style. A credit to

I never saw Tyson work but my digging partner saw him lots of times. Very good animal a bit too game for his own good. What did the rest of that litter turn out like?

Cissy was some operator. A late starter who many wouldn't have given the chance but soon made up for lost time. Shes in every one of my terriers today and the line still throws late starters. Which is no harm at all in my book. Great thread and photos lads

If I was a newbie I wouldn't bother with terriers

I think it was just plain old af sam. Booth only claimed him in later years. Even claimed he bred him i believe.

I saw the dog alright but didn't see him working....supposed to have been a handy dog I believe

Keep your circle tight and your dogs tight and hear say wont enter the equation. You wouldn't need to rely on it.Theres probably 2 or 3 fellas in the country who's word I would take for gospel no questions asked. If they said a dog was doing it then that dog was doing the business. My dogs go back to some of the fore mentioned dogs and are now throwing a greater number of workers than ever before but believe me I've bred some useless dogs too some of which would really have you scratching your head but every one does. Sometimes the mating just doesn't click even within a line. Just cut that b

That's the spike mushray is on about alrite Chesney. He was Sammy's father.Not sure if that's him in the photo tho hes gone a long time now.
-
I mentioned it on here before that that line has produced very well for people who have gone there own direction with it. It's a fair testament to the original dogs and what was in them
-
All very capable dogs mentioned there pal. And producers too in fairness. A nice number of terriers still producing well today with those names behind them. ?

Rum and misty were very good terriers. Rum is back in nearly all of mine.

I knew fogartys sam as black sam. That's what I asked earlier incase I was talking about the wrong dog altogether. Apache the son of sam we had was a baying type but there wouldn't be an inch between him and his game he used to get bitten everywhere. The dog got through tons of work. Whereas most of the grandsons were hard animals but did steady with work
-
I only his sons and daughters and there offspring working. Never saw Sam himself working one son in particular off him was an outstanding dog I'd have a space in my kennels for him anytime
-
Is that af's black Sam? Good few dogs down this way with his blood in them.

Black family turning red

My terriers produce 90 % black the rest are chocolate. The chocolate come mostly with dark eyes but some come with light almost bluey eyes for some reason. Theres no difference size wise between the blacks and chocs though I've never seen a line produce smaller of one colour than the other in my experience anyway. -
A legend of a man. Great company in the field or in the pub after hunting. Always a gentleman one of the last of a dying breed
