heart of wales 19 Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 Hi all iv been to shows in wales england and now scotland and i must say the quality of lurcher and terrier is better in wales why do you think that is?also shows in scotland are thin on the ground in the summer why is that? We hold our Game Fair in August and other shows throughout the Year and several people have commented on the standard of Dogs,We were chuffed to bits with the numbers and quality,there are huge numbers of terrier and lurchers in the South Wales valleys perhaps its a numbers thing. We got the dogs and people we just aint got the weather Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ive never heard of anyone PTS because the dog didnt win a show . The lads that would PTS would do so because it walked of the job and not for what it looks like .

socks 32,253 Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 (edited) its because the welsh are the best dogmen .. they understand the qualitys that are needed to make a dog into a worker that is a cut above the rest ... and if they look good at the same time then thats a bonus ... but in the valleys where there is f**k all to do bar work your dog you havnt time to keep shit so over the generations the weaker dogs have been sent to the rainbow bridge and the best put back to the best which is why wales has a good amount of quality dogs ..... HEART OF WALES big mal wont be happy with his picture being up on here with his wellies ... his street cred will be shot to bits ..........

heart of wales 19 Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 We have been very fortunate over the last two years to enlist the help of some cracking judges, judges who have been there and done it,are still doing it.We try and keep it as entertaining as possible as well Digging competition Simulated Coursing, Racing,even a rabbit hunt with the exellent Ryeford Chase Griffon Vendeen Hounds.
