If you think you need to add strong dog to your terriers...then I would be looking at a different line of digging dogs personally...I would sooner put black to white,at least you be digging them the n

Ai like I have to with my missus ? 

I wouldn't personally kennel anything with that Wheaton...no matter how much you think you can trust it?... especially that young Russell bitch...good luck,which ever way you go?

I've always preferred a nice strong Bayer who knows when to mix it been out with plenty who think they have a good dog because it gets a facefull then laid up for weeks I just don't see the point really 

I don't see the point in it myself mate ? I won't be breeding these as head bangers they will be half Russel,  they will then be 3/4 Russel ? but I have to start somewhere..

Dug over a couple 20 plus years ago, big lumps of things they were that couldn't be dug everywhere and were no harder than many of the black dogs I've seen since.

I know a lad that has wheaten in his line of black dogs and no better terriers a man would ever need. 

Think the late RW had Wheaton in his digging stuff too

Could there have been a splash in them too then? You get the odd fluffy one with that blood?

I have thought that a few times mate I have also seen border type features in young Wheatons and the ones I seen it in stayed smallish compared to others I seen

I had a wheaten X Russel,years back,great bitch to work but very intense,I was about to put her to a good Russel dog in the end of her third season but she died in ground before she broke down,had her sister too but at 15 months old ,pulled a cat off her kennel wall and ate most of it,dead 2 days later ,....had their dam here,she was a savage,parted with here as all she wanted was to kill my other dogs,good in the country though...

How was her work style in the ground mate, was she just mute?

How would you rate them to a hard black dog?
