You never saw terriers grab an let go an grab an in an out doing the hokey pokey I don’t breed so I wouldn’t but no I wouldn’t have a pup off such dogs

Yes and I wouldn't think about breeding them tbh. 

A fella I knew had a stunning looking Lakey type, if looks could kill it would be a winner. 

Well put ratting it was squealing like a cut pig when bitten and picking it's spots, thanks but no thanks.

Ah but there’s a difference there as it depends on what the dog has done that day. If this was rat number 50 then yep I’m with you. But if it’s rat number 500 when the dog is completely chin strapped then it’s fair enough.

It's funny how when it comes to pure sighthounds like saluki, greyhounds it don't mater if their working or not, but if it's a lurcher it has to have so many years of work behind them.

I got a terrier here its no exaggeration hes killed more on hes own and seen more variety than alot of lurchers fetches to me land or water trust him fully will not even entertain a hole ive watched things drop in on hes nose. Obviously dont encourage the hole thing as i dont keep him For that.

thats what i`m saying graft made the bloodlines if 5/6 generations down one or both parents hav`nt grafted should/would it matter that much , no guarantee any dog will work but if its in the genes/blood  more chance it will . 

I agree mate but the thing is who in their right mind would buy a pup off tested stock, never work it and then decide to breed it?

Deffo an if it’s a young dog same applies, but it’s still a funny thing to watch an it’s surprised who starts doing it tho

One thing you can say about Nuttall, he used to take jackers back and offer you another dog.

Never been into breeding dogs just love working em, most important thing for me is putting quarry in front of the dog regardless of bloodlines and bullshit, atb

Bloodlines ain’t bull shit sweet cheeks just look at any animal breeding in any species. Scatter bred you might get lucky, but you tip tings in your favour if you breed them right.

Absolutely you should never push a dog to its end point but sometimes in the heat of battle so to speak you take your eye off the ball …….

The age thing is about staying sound as well.

Also know a dog that has developed funny turns/fits, wouldn't want a pup off that

My opinion is worker to worker bred out of honest dogs that can do what’s required with a bit of age on there side preferably I don’t know if it’s write or wrong but works for me.

good on him but -- how many owners make  a jacker --- 

How long is a piece of string pal. 

He has bred cold dogs though, which breeder hasn't.

That's true but it's about stacking the deck in your favour. 

 

Your using the same blood both ways so the decks pretty much stacked the same.
