Only Richards work dogs sore. thing I don’t like about the baying terrier is on educated game they have a tendency to let game pass then creating a running match around an earth and I find a lot of them get bored and come away can’t finish the job 

I totally agree about pure baying dogs mate and the notion that one can dig educated stuff with it seems odd ,either that or the dog sits back so you have to trench on .The stuff dosnt have to be educated to produce good dogs either but just my opinion .

Could it be that the term, Educated game = average dog.

A bad dog will make the worst of them look good and a good dog will make the best of them look average

I’ve learnt that ‘educated game’ can earn that title because the lads that dig them have dogs that will take hold and work hard. Last season I’ve seen some dogs come off very worse for wear and we’ve all agreed that the game must be very educated. We’ve then tipped a steady dog in which knows the score just baying away nothing stupid, and we’ve dug the game without a scratch on the dog. Now if you keep hard dogs and you come across game which won’t submit your gunna call that game educated as you will see the outcome with the dogs wounds but there’s every much chance you will dig it with a steady dog which doesn’t overpressure the game. I’ve seen it a few times this season. There’s a lot of hard dogs in Ireland and you claim there’s a lot of educated game. Coincidence? I don’t know where this thing of educated quarry is only in wales and Ireland. The nastiest lot I’ve seen have been in the north of England where they’re sparse and you meet them frequent. 

Great post mate.

lol... was just thinking very same thing myself... the foxes over there must have no teeth ffs...

Educated stuff should mean the one thing to all but it clearly doesn't. Some people are a mile of which is a blessing thank god.
