irishdogs 48 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 I wouldn't dig without one. A 300quid locator is alot cheaper than replacing a good digging terrier, good terriers are few and far between although you can never ever guarantee that a terrier will be breathing by the time you break in,locator or no locator but would Definatly help towards a more positive outcome 1 Quote Link to post
jamie mc 168 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 Post locators the boy's would have had the skills to find a dog.But in this day and age there's no excuse for not having one it's the most important thing in my tool box expert from the dog of course.my advice is to find someone willing to show you Fox control because any one can put a dog in the ground it's knowing what to do when you get there.atb Jamie 1 Quote Link to post

Britishbull24 131 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 It's Law. The Terrier must always be fitted with an electronic locator. 1 Quote Link to post
