Used to be Russell's, then border lakies then fells, then cross breeds, nobody had "Patts' till the 80s, then chocs, then black cos  they are the dbs.

Good terriers are exactly that, no matter the breed.

There are still working borders out there.

I recon there are still some out there with good working Lakeland, Fell types. Few and far between though, compared to black dogs.

Maybe there is a good reason that lads are using black dogs and not the other breeds.

There could very well be. But I think money was the killer for them, as the borders and lakeys I seen and dug over didn't lack in the minerals department and were on a par with top black dogs so my guess is pure and simple the doe ray me

Keeper friend has two border cross lakes, sore on the eye but stay until jobs done, what more can you ask,  i like my black uns and know what I’m getting when I have a litter from them, consistent workers, too much shite nowadays 

[jossa 963]

My borders and lakelands have never failed me, stay till the jobs done. Also plenty other lads out there with genuine working lakeys.
