andrewp35 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 nice one,but i think their in the wrong post.This is about Cuileog bred dogs. maybe should be in the SBT section [bANNED TEXT]. Quote Link to post
dog fox 16 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 yes i no that mate thats why i posted it here, the father to my dog was over from ireland and his name was culli as we new him but could that have been cuileog pronounced in the right way ,this is what i was asking ,as he made all the SBT around me look small cheers anyway Quote Link to post
AKA-BRINDLE 879 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Allways makes me shake my head when dogs get talked about as being this way or that way bred and then when you look at the ped you see these 'names' appear once or twice way way back in the ped and are probably of little significance...in my opinion this chaseing of names on pedigrees is helping bring about the decline in the stafford as a working animal...breeders should be taking a very close look at the temperament and abilitys of the parents and grand parents first and foremost and worrying about the paper work second (but i suppose its names on peds that sell pups)...the previously mentioned 'socks' dog is a good example of what iam talking about for starters he was only 1/2 cuileog bred and i would guess he was simply bred worker to worker/best to best and not for fancy paperwork... andrewp35 i think 'sylus' answerd your original question at the start of this thread Quote Link to post
bolio 49 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 They were actually show bred dogs that ended up in the hands of working terrier men. The short and dumpy shape is what the show orientated breeders were looking for and it wasn't much of a handicap for the trialling game. Some of todays fanciers seem to be mixing up the term "working" staff as related to trialling, with another form of work which was a much more accurate test of a game dog. A lot of these trials dogs were no use at other forms of work. Quote Link to post
andrewp35 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Aka Brindle i dont think anyone is chasing names just wanted to see if their was anything tightly bred down from these lines as i am looking at adding a pup to the family in the near future.Regarding everything else i couldnt agree more with you and yes sylus, i think has answered my question in the first place.but Interesting read though dont you think?you cant beat a little History lesson can you? especially if you wernt around at the time.
