toolebox 1,388 Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 The foxy side tempers the beagle side down quite alot ,I like to view the cross in this way ,I find that a foxy is a better rabbit catcher than a beagle but a beagle is a better rabbit finder than a foxy ,so this cross can give the best of both breeds .They generaly have a better nose than a straight foxy and are quicker than a straight beagle & not as "pigheaded ".

Tozer 385 Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 I was looking at foxp terriers in the, but it seems there aren't many working anymore. There is I think a place for a trainable leggy terrier. There is a lot more to go at your side of the world. Some of the Australian hunting looks epic (I know it's no where near NZ) Quote Link to post
Tozer 385 Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 (edited) This is my old dog (Rip) in my avatar, I have no idea of her breeding, she came out of a JRT, we took her in because she was in a state, bone poking out the end of her tail, mange, only 8 weeks old. She turned out to be one of the gamest, inteligent dogs I have had. Didn't go to ground, but put some foxes out of stacks of bales etc. The other is a collie/ESS, bloody useless dog.
