Jagd terriers and bigger game hunting
sionnach99 replied to Scheme_Lakeland's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
A few year ago there seemed to be a craze going of importing ‘hard as nails’ jagd terriers going on here in Ireland on fb and on here ,some of them selling for massive money. Them same jagd terriers are nowhere to be seen now and any serious digging men are still using the same old black dogs that they have always been digging too. Tells you a lot really. Lads will keep whatever works the best and that’s the black dogs. For me a terriers job is for earthwork nothing else. -
Nice type of dog you keep and breed , all look in great condition a real credit to you. Atb sionnach.

I’d be wary of a lot of posts on here. I have yet too hear of a polish man called Martin??? Maybe I’m wrong but just be careful lads. A lot of cu*ts out there…

Nice dog him. What age is he ?

Not sure if he’s taking the piss or not, not too worried either. I’m the one feeding them and picking up their shites?

That’s a terrier pup at the front. One at the back is a lurcher

Terriers how many digs in a single season
sionnach99 replied to Fox dog's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
Are they still down off the old stuff you had that you used to dig to? Not many working borders about nowadays . Some of those Levi Oakes terriers looked handy animals in there day. Atb sionnach -
Working wheatean terriers any about
sionnach99 replied to Daviddavies's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
For me a bull grey with a touch of collie suits my needs perfectly. There are men in this country using collie bull greys and I would really like to see someone who kills more foxs than them. I know of 60+ a season single handed dogs. I doubt there are many Irish terrier crosses or Kerry blues that would hack it. -

sionnach99 replied to Daviddavies's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
Maybe there is a few good ones about but personally I think there are far better crosses that are tried and tested. Why would anyone get a kerryblue cross when there are bull crosses about?? Each to their own I guess. People will keep what works and what produces. Maybe u could get a one hit wonder Irish terrier or Kerry blue cross but I don’t hear of many lads keeping the type and breeding them with much success ?? Again just my opinion -

Correct me if I’m wrong maybe one or two did , but the vast majority of them are SHITE, sugar coat it whatever way you like. Do you know of any ???? -

Do you still keep borders? -
I’d imagine there’s very few genuine first crosses about. Proper ones anyways.

sionnach99 replied to Fox dog's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
U can’t put a number on how many digs another mans dog should have. It Depends on there working style. Whoever owns the dog will know how they work and will know how much he can and would like to get out of it in the season. U can only dig them when there fit to be dug. -
Tough going today, first dig of the season for me to a second season bitch. Done very well in a big spot. Tried a couple nothing at home, decided we would try one more before we headed home. Dropped her and she was on quickly. Got a mark in the middle of 10 foot high briars under neath a fallen ivy tree. Took a good while to get in and get the place cleared. It was only about a metre so we Started to dig in the lashing rain and hit layers of shingle rock. Could only chip a layer out with the graft and scoop out the loose stuff. Broke through about 2 hrs later . Back to my mates house for dinne
