My last days hunting with him, he was as good as they say with both terrier and spade..............his people skills needed work though ?

I no longer post to this site, however I watch. I saw Smithy several times at work, he was a  very big lump of a dog. Not kept at a sporting weight as he was always kennelled,  tall as yr knees. I saw

Late 90's granddaughter of smithy most of my stuff is down from her.

me also intrested pablo but only in the truth .. i dont for one miniute belive he killed evry badger he was dug to.. and i dont see why anyone whuld be digging a dog as big as that regular to fox pre ban... then thers the holding back of his breeding by mr gould witch was said to be a cleaver marketing trick by his best mate stig.... sounds like ther was a load of old bollox surrounding the dog to be honest ... how big was he 17" a dog what learns to kil a fox early can do it reguarly with no stick regardless of size its a nack what can be learned..... am sorry but the legend smiffy dont suck me in dont care how he was bread and dont care for the glory storys surrounding him my opinion is he was only a dog a big hard dog who was marketed a good way by a dog dealer and bread to that many bitches he produced some decent dogs who got in the hands of good lads that made the most of them

I cant remember Ken claiming smithy killed every badger he seen, it was said he killed every fox he could get to

Lol,it would be some terrier that could finish every Badger it was put to pre-ban and anyone that would even think that knows f**k all about diging.

i cannot even think ken would say it killed every badger smitty met , hes not like that .smitty was a bloody big old mutt & any fox would only last a few minutes , but for a terrier to kill old brock lets be sensible :hmm:

The next big debate Was it ever possible old men? haha

I have heard a few lads say pre-ban that there terrier finished badger to ground,but imho in reality i reckon that 99% of this happening is due to the animal smothering due to pushing up so tight it blocks of itself for air and is then dug to but dead where then the owner and his terrier take the credit,it probably did happen on occasion but never consistently.
