Lmao had chance of chocolate one at weekend for 50 quid out of working stock,
-
I reared him for couple of years, sold when I quit hunting for a while but getting back at it always wondered how he got on
-
Don't know where he is ,I use to own him just seeing if he is still about
-
Anybody seen this dog in Ireland?
-
Happened to our russell dog during a dig when we broke through he just stopped and collapsed luckily he came round, took him to vets and diagnosed a heart murmur retired him after that, shame but not worth loosing a good dog over
-
I go to the vet mate don't think you can go wrong with that, no doubt someone will come along and say im wrong though lol
-
AGREED
-
I had one, hunted her for 11 seasons absolute clinker of a wee bitch, used her for digging and bolting, she was probably the best terrier i ever had very hard though
-
Can't post them here if you get me
-
Yeah they have a broken course coat similar coat to a parson russell
-
Atb with them mate, the wheaten x pat should make for a good earthdog, a couple of my old digging buddies have our bull wheaten x pat dogs at the minute all i can say is they are absolute maniacs they leave very little (if any) work for our drawing dogs ;-)
-
Going by that I would say first cross would be ideal size. beauty is the wheaten isn't chesty like Stafford. we used first cross bull Russell's they were 15tts but very chesty But where unreal earth dogs
-
Have you an idea of the size of both pat and wheaten, i bred wheaten staff 21inchs over tiny pat bitch 10 inches to shoulder and got good size terriers in round 15 inches to shoulder. A few years ago
-
Depends on size of wheaten and type of terrier, I had wheaten x Irish staff but he was too big to do earth work, he was used to draw quarry after it was dug, hard as hell. Never heard a whimper outta him when he was on his quarry the wheaten sire was a good 26 inches to shoulder
-
Picked that up wrong I was thinking of the first grey deben box my bad
-
Seen on on gumtree 65 quid

Stil dnt get the jist of what ur trying to say jimmy are you another disbeleiver in a Kerry blue working? If that is the case meet me and I will show you videos of him working quarry. 16-18lb ????? Im not talking about a shih Tzu the KB we had was 22 inches to shoulder and was close on 30kg. When you talk about top class Kerry man does he breed them to crufts standards to line his pockets or does he breed a proper top class KB to work which was the initial question, we had one, he worked, want another one,why i asked on here. I wudnt be looking for another if i didn't see him work not in the
-
No right or wrong way I would prefer using a stick myself as our JRT literally will bite the hand that feeds him if you try and take him off his quarry
-
Does this man work them or maybe there are more disbelievers questioning a Kerry blue doing what it was bred for
-
In my opinion first crosses are a bit too hard for their own good, I agree with snoz though first crosses I had where too chesty had to dig a stuck terrier out on a few occasions
-
Oh yes some days he even wore a blue ribbon, do you know this mad man at all, does he work it, think there is a touch of madness in most blue owners
-
Dogs have been bred for hundreds of years for specific purposes Rottieler guard dog american Bulldog to bait bulls Pit bulls for dog fighting Shih Zhu fanny lickers Patterdale terriers for going to ground real shame to see a patterdale being used for rabbits don't know who to to hit with spade first the dog or the owner for wasting a very good ground dog
