Working Lakeland breeders stateside?

[Peteg 0]

Hello all,

I live in Denver Colorado, and am seeking advice on lakeland breeders stateside. There are a lot of patterdale and jrt breeders about, but I haven't seen much on lakelands. Do you know of any you could point me to?

I have enjoyed reading your forums, good news that hunting hasn't died under the ban. I went to school for a time in Ireland where I remember seeing a lot more game terriers then here in Denver. (Limerick - Mary Immaculate 13yrs ago) I currently own a working Airedale, and am interested in finding a digger to run with him. I would prefer a bitch, especially one that has a saddle - crosses ok too. Thanks

Pete

You will find very few Lakey types in the states.....I know of only a few that are from a line of legitimate workers......Black coated, white coated and Jagds are the majority of workers here.

In kennel Sow's Ear Farm (JRTCA) there are red working lakelands and the breeder had a website of "Banded Mountain terriers", which are - to my understanding - working Lakeland x Jack Russell crosses, but for some reason the link ( www.bandedmountainterrier.com ) does not work anymore.

 

More about the lakeland at Sow's Ear Farm: http://www.sowsearfarm.com/fells_lakelands.htm

You may contact Karen McCarthy (Sow's Ear Farm), she will surely be able to help you.

I don't know if this helps, but back in the late 70's - early 's a few Lakelands (Middleton's old lines) were sent to the states by M.D.

One of the dogs was called Flint (blue/tan dog) the same lines as the dog and bitch in the pictures below. He was a very well tested dog.

If memory serves me well, I think that the dogs were sent down south, for raccoons and other quarry.

Thanks for the help. Those last pics are what I am talking about. Sweet looking dog. You fellers know of any working Airedales out there across the pond. There is a small but strong group out here. Here is a link to some that you might be interested in.http://workingairedale.ERFujikolp;'/index.cgi?

One more question. It looks like the bigger terriers in use out there are pit bulls and wheaten terriers. The only wheatens around here are 100% show dogs that don't strike me as real hunters. Am I correct?

I will try the two links and see what I come up with, feel free to send along more info if you have any.
