Any terrier that is worked consistently will get marked. I have a russell bitch that is a out and out bayer, but she still gets marked. If it is not being marked at all, it is too far away from the sharp end, which may be ok in your situation, i cant really comment.

Let me guess.....you think a terrier covered in scars, missing ears and lips makes it a good dog???

 

That dog is doing what a terrier is meant to do....bay! It's not all about getting a dog mashed up :wallbash:

The dog is still young and will no doubt gain a bit bravado and get a few marks but thats a good dog he has there i feel :thumbs:

If dog stays till dug and every time you break through dog and quarry are their i,d say you have a decent dog that can be used week in week out through the season. Hard dogs do a job but if you only have one dog to work you mates dog sounds like the right tool for the job :thumbs:
