starting out wanting to get first terrier

[fenman1# 724]

depends what you want it for mate

 

if you want a earth dog a patterdale or lakeland

 

or if you want a bushing dog id go for a springer russell something with springer/cocker or beagle in it

 

but if you can find your self a good jack russell your laughing

but i think patterdales and lakeland are no good for bushing well i dont think i no they have no nose there just game to tell you the truth i wouldnt have one in my yard get your self a 3/4 jack russel 1/4 springer or beagle and you will have a gooden

i am wanting it for earth so do you think a patt or is the right dog for me

[fenman1# 724]

depends if you want a dog with a face or not i got a bitch sent to me last year shes a 3/4 russel 1/4 springer and i can dig to her everyday of the week and you wouldnt even no shes bin out the kennel

 

if you want a sounder i wouldnt get a patterdale there a hardy dog they get destroyed i no a few old fellas in irland proper hunts men there dogs earn there kennell and they wouldnt even put a patterdale in there dog box and you get people saying they hunt cover you might get the odd one but they need a nose to hunt cover

 

i have a pup 2 pups comeing over here there mother is a springer/russell x bull/russell and the father is a beagle/russell x bull/russell

the parents are in irland and there doing the business above and below ground if your interested in a pup she should be the right one

 

good luck with finding a pup tho mate

Not all fells/patterdales are hard , some might start that way but end up been sensible & some start the other way round . overall these dogs are very tenasious thats why they are popular dogs . ps these dogs have an exelent nose in my experience .

out of all of this you can still get a good dog out of every breed,i have only ever owned one patterdale and it was no good so have stayed clear of them and stayed with lakelands and russells.having a hard dog can be handy at times but not in most situations!it is all judged on personnal experiences.

ALL BLACK FELLS ARE NOT YOUR WORDS NOT MINE HARD, THEY SEEM TO HAVE A GREATER URGE TO MIX IT LETS SAY, IVE SEEN ALL TYPES MIX IT , AND STAY THERE SEEMS TO BE A ALL BLACK TYPES ARE ONLY CAPABLE OF EARTH WORK ISSUE , LIKE ANY STAIN OF TERRIER GIVE THEM EARTH WORK AND ONLY EARTH WORK AND THEY WILL ETHER EXCEL OR FAIL NONE ARE GUARANTEED ,I KNOW MEN WHO PREFER CHOCS , AS BEING GUTSY WHEN THE NEED ARISES , BUT GETTING BACK TO THE ORIGINAL THREAD , THE LAD WANTED INFO ON A TERRIER TYPE , ANY TYPE OFF TRUE WORKING STOCK WOULD BE MY CHOICE IF YOU STAY IN TERRIERS YOU WILL FIND YOUR OWN FAVORITE TYPE , BUT IN THE MEAN TIME GOOD LUCK

didnt mean black n tan that all blacks are hard,just that having a hard dog in general can be handy at times but most of the time i want a dog i can work most weekends.this lad wanting advice just needs to find a good pup from a decent working strain to give you the best chance possible for it to work.hope fully he can find a bloke with some experiance to show him the ropes.any way mate best of luck with getting started,dont rush into the first pup you find take your time looking around.
