I think everyone has a different opinion on what is called a hard terrier.Some will call a terrier that can kill fox to ground on a regular basis hard where others will say the dog just has a nack for

Mute dog would not keep it I like the sound of sounding under my feet to much most of what I come across is educated stuff and I dig them with bayer mixer types I have no need for hard dog just my opi

Have to disagree as some places can be layered maybe 3-4 different levels spread over a wide area and a fox moving about in front of a terrier will leave scent all over the place leaving it very hard

I cant be doing with speed diggers either, dog in, box on , minute it stops dig like fck, seems like theyre worried dog will walk, maybe a bit of time will would do dog good. A very well known dog that was hard as they come was dropped in a spot on an invite that was always handy, anyway went to about fourteen foot, hard going, took a good while but the dog was baying by the end, this was the making of the dog, and I know of plenty of other dogs that done similar, in fact most of the best dogs ive seen have been mute for a season or two then start baying. I have a bitch here just started baying this year and its her third season, I was delighted last week to hear her baying, give them a bit of time, let them learn there trade, if they cut out for it they will bay, if not they'll walk and youll know what you have.

Sometimes you haven't got the luxury to sit about all day and let your dog work....

Legal or illegal ignore the hard terrier at your peril without him the fire will soon go out on all working terriers,men that decry the hard dog or are slaves to the law usually have some other motive perhaps it suits there kennel of yappers perhaps it brings££££ from the sales of there second rate white dogs perhaps some men have to much pride history or love for there game little dogs just to simply throw it all away on the whim of some socialising traitor government.

sat back and watched with post long enough now,as a few will know ive bred a lot of decent dogs over the years and my take is you dont put hard dogs in the mix you might aswell breed shite,dug with many a good terrierman over the years and seen many lines fxxxed up because they bred these baying dogs,you need a dog to stay with his quarry in close and tight baying dogs dont do this,,dont get me wrong seen plenty good baying dogs but keep crossing them you will end that line keep adding strong hot headed dog in and the line will keep strong thats my take on the matter

Each to their own but my heart lies with the H type and even tho times are changing and it may be the end of them in time to come maybe not to far away, as this world grows extremely one sided, all odds against them even terriermen in great numbers see no use for these little gladiators. I will do my best by them and honour there courage and give them the respect they deserve.
