After a somewhat lengthy Hiatus and myself wondering if I should once again contribute to any of the particular posts, I must admit I was somewhat apprehensive in doing so. "Don't forget I was accused of being (Johnny Bluck) at every opportunity, which of course was very silly indeed. I have an idea of why it happened, but I will keep it to myself. It is deplorable in activity when we have so much hassle with the (antis) and the pressure will get worse if we don't stand and do something within our powers, especially the one thing we have far in front of the animal lunatics, we actually know what we are talking about.

I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. "I just await and see of what the New Year brings on the hunting life forum for 2018. However, I plan when the time permits I will read certain topics, but i've never been the type to virtually live on such a forum, and I don't mean that in a derogatory form or intend for anyone in particular. For example some people may be confined to their houses and gather great fun within the hunting forum and their interests. I sincerely hope everyone is ok and like I stated I was rather reluctant to contribute. However, I will read certain articles of interest when I get the time.            .           

                                                                                           Merry Christmas and a Happy New year. Regards, Lutra Lutra........

Good to see you back Stephen and I hope you'll keep on board and contribute now and again and give David my apologies as he wrote me a long letter a while back which I meant to sit down and reply to (on paper, I hate writing long PMs as they usually disappear on me) over the Christmas but never got around too.

Take care.

      Stop End!
      By Oshea
      Hello lads, merry Christmas and all that. I’ve got a terrier in my kennels that starting to test my patience. 
       
      Great dog, keen as mustard and all that but time and time again I’ve broken through to her steadily baying away only to find she’s sat with something mid tube on one occasion I broke though and there was nothing there however last week I said to myself if I break through I’ll clear the tubes up and pop her back in to make sure it isn’t my fault rather than blame her. Lo and behold it was sat about a meter back from the open end of the tube and eventually bolted itself - Happy says, a nice morning out (I only dig on my own and keep it private).
       
      However today we popped over to seasoned place, in she went, which was an incredibly large earth with multiple holes spanning across a bracken bank. Straight away she sat at 2.4 baying away well, too many entrances to net I kept an eye out for the bolt but nothing was to be seen. For the next hour maybe two she barley surfaced and worked the entire earth sitting and baying on occasion but shortly moving on and covering a great distance. Eventually on one occasion when she popped out, nose down looking for the next way in I picked her up and sat her back in the truck as I didn’t want to be sat there for another hour trying to get a mark. 
       
      my question is simple, what am I doing wrong? Or is the bitch at fault for not working her quarry to a stop end and staying. She isn’t massively experienced however for what’s she’s done I’ve found she’s intelligent and very safe often comes away without a mark. Please don’t recommend PTS or moving her on, I understand many terriermen wouldn’t tolerate this however for the times I have dug to her successfully it has been a great pleasure. I’ve had a conversation with a lad local to me and his response was “she’s not hard enough to hold them” which made me think one man’s preference may not be another’s. 
       
      all the best & happy new year

      Sealyham or Sealyham X
      By TheGrafter
      Morning lads,
      so I’ve always had black fell terriers and work them to ground. But for a few years I’ve noticed people starting work slightly broken coated very short coupled terriers that are little savages. I never really get a clear answer to what’s in them but I really like the look of them.
       
      one chap told me he’d crossed his Sealyham with a Russel and it turned out a good little worker. Just wondering if anyone else has had any experience with this breeding specifically for earth work? 
       
      thanks

      How to get our terrier into ratting
      By Liz123
      We’re keen to introduce our 2 year old Jack Russell to ratting.
      We’re based in East Devon. Are there any local groups or anyone that can teach us / her the ropes?
