shepp 2,285 Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) I think they have the best nose of any terrier, they are very scent orientated. I read they have otter hound in their makeup. Mine certainly barks like one, although she is silent when working. Edited May 4, 2015 by shepp Quote Link to post

Will1234 17 Posted May 6, 2015 Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 Morton if beddys were so good why so few working them? Because there no good that's why. I have 2 spaniels and they would wipe the floor with your lamb dogs. Been out with beddys in my eyes never seen a good one. Spaniel or spaniel cross leave the beddy at home in your birds handbag Quote Link to post
brenner 772 Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 had a bedlington for bushing. he was a demon to smash cover but was mute as you might expect , great nose.great wheather proof coat but that nose carried him off up the field like a fox hound and no amount of training could reel him back in. maybe a better man would have got a handle on him but for the life of me i couldnt get any sort of recall on him. just my experience with the one i owned. he might have suited different ground than i hunt better Quote Link to post

morton 5,367 Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 I have a litter of good old school bedlingtons if anyone is interested have a couple spare cracking dogs in cover "cracking dogs in cover" makes me think they are not as old school as you would have us believe,old school were bred to enter below then work cover as part of their versatility.What graft have the parents seen in the dark?,i allready know your going to lie.Good luck with the sale of another litter of useless Bedlingtons.
