If thats what you think tommy then you obviously have not seen a good dog work badger {pre ban of course}.
A good terrier wont let a badger run past it but if a badger really really wanted to get through he would!
Not if the dog in front of it was bred the right way and able to up the gears when push comes to shove,its the last few min of any dig that tests a terrier,the break through,thats when they need that extra gear imo,all back in the good old days when it was all legal,will we ever see them days again or will the polliticions kill our sport forever.
No we wont Donie,the cowboys
