Bryan 1,361 Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 I know one old man that's going to be in the book. Unfortunately his health is failing him at the moment as is his memory. He started out with foundation dogs from Bert Gripton and and the best of working terrier blood in Ireland at the time in the early 1960's. Dogs bred down from this stuff are still working to a very high standard and not sold, but kept among tight circles. there are not many lines of working white dogs about and his knowledge might be of interest to some. This old guy would have hunted with Terriers,been at the trials and a digging friend of the Staff Geronimo's owner, hunted beagles, Harriers, Foxhounds and Otterhounds. I don't think people on here should be offended about him telling his stories. Or concern themselves about him selling pups, it's not going to happen. Don't like the author or books on hunting ? don't buy it or read it. Bryan. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
