Good sensible comments lads... I know for a fact, that certain coursing Studs can command a high price for their services, and any resulting pups will not be sold cheap. Obviously, when a br

Aggression is often confused with gameness imo. I've seen plenty of gassy aggressive dogs' arse fall out when things get real.

Gn stopped his Kc kennel prefix rillington in approx 1984 plus his lakelands were the same prefix. After this his dogs were not registered and he was outcrossing and breeding from these. He did back in the day use a few gutchcommon dogs and a eakring bitch lady lena owned by j piggin in a breeding. Some people have carried the breeding from these original dogs in their lines to this day. The bedlington gene pool is a small one.

Gutchcommon had better coats I was told but bigger than rillington dogs ,my uncul gave george Kelly a gutchcommon pup yrs ago that produced few good lurchers ,Darbo do you have any edrd mags with gn dogs in ,looking to get back copy's but don't no what numbers to ask 4 ,

19" and 28lbs, kind of sums up the enigma that is/was the working Bedlington. It would take a brave and dedicated man with a long term plan to use a dog of such a size with the intension of producing working terriers. A better prospect for producing lurchers, but the risk being that such a large dog had much smaller ones in it's make up.

I know that they were famous dogs in the kennel of one the most respected  terrier men of all time, just find Bedlingtons an odd/fascinating breed.
