Nah keep them, they could well make useful dogs. They will be racey enough to do the business and the terrier will give em plenty of pluck.

 

Where you at?

I've seen a couple of litters like that in c/w over past few weeks. I know someone who is looking for a bitch bred like taht but I'm sorry to say that they won't travel, which is annoying.

 

One of the guys i spoke to who had a litter and bred them intentionally for bushing dogs and was keeping back pick of litter for himself.

 

I would say that enopugh people on here are interested then keep em.

im sure i could travel to were people are regarding the will take care of the pup(s) , how many average would this sort of size dogs produce? .. im not going to be looking for large amount of capital for the pups either ,

I'd keep them,

 

I used to have a Lakeland x Whippet which was an accidental mating and he turned into one of the best dogs we ever owned. Obviously not a dog for coursing hares, but fantastic for ferreting, hunting cover and ratting, real allrounder.

 

I'd buy one off you myself but I'm in Ireland.

the thing is i dont go near rats ect , i mainly lamp rabbits , fox , now i dont think they would be usefull for fox but rabbits ? .. wat u think? .. i do ferret though :-)

[pointer28 1]

I used mine for lamping rabbits and he was grand, caught a good few for us, not as fast as some crosses but he was extremely intelligent, and he came from a very game line of Lakelands so he had no fear of foxes, although he was a bit light to kill one on his own when lamping.

 

Like I said, I thought he was a great dog, I'm looking for something similar at the moment but can't find anything suitable. I want something small and quick, but it needs to be tough, that's where the Lakeland blood was so good.

thanks for [bANNED TEXT] comments on this , ive decided to let her have the pups , maybe they will make game workers maybe they wont , still desrve to be somebodys pet atleast , i hope they make a grade in some working abilty wether its lamping or bushing , i dont care im sure they should be usefull for something

harvest is no respector of weekends. I will try get hold of my mate and see if he will take one. I don't think you will have any bother finding homes for them. Glad to hear you are letting her keep them
