number of litters

[Guest eastmids]

right lads i dont have a great deal of ground to go at so can get by with a couple of dogs in a season and buy a pup every now n then.

but some lads on here have bred 5,6, litters of terriers in the last 5 years,that i know.and i dare say the same lads will have another litter on the ground next year..

what i want to know is is it nessessary??

These would be the same people who say " i have only bred them to keep one, the other five, six or seven are for sale"

and then its £150 per pup and then the comments of "if only etc etc"

As you know i only keep dogs so its not a problem but when i did have a bitch or two i found that

it takes them a good three months of full time care to get back into shape after whelping

That taken out of a six month season is a right nuisance, so the ones you see advertised can only be for the money IMHO

I have just got another pup, no charge just the offer of a service if he makes the grade, you still give something as it costs money to raise a litter right

but that's just a bit of common decency

 

That's the way it should be , but the reality is E-pupz at £300, grandparents from working lines, patter-jacks, stud dogs at a year old and all the rest of the insane bollocks that goes with poor b*****ds chasing a shilling

 

by the way hope your well !

well i imagine the genuine lads who have been at it years and have a lot to go at will have had to put a good number of litters down in there lifes to maintain there digging stuff..but a litter or two a year fucks sake..

i lost that young dog the other week, just have its yoyo litter mate and the old dog to be getting on with,now otherwise alls well

Sorry to hear that mate, i still have my one, hes just got over a little tussle that left him a bit worse for wear

i'll send you some pics of the pup once i take some

 

all the best
