    thanks for the feedback skycat. thinki.ve got my choice of next dog sorted. will be in a few years though still got a pair of borders that do me proud at the moment. finding a well breed pup will be the prob i think. how do you find this cross for retrieving and being soft or hard mouthed?

    Hi all, just a quick one. Been ferreting for a good couple of years without a locator. Never lost a ferret by the way. just spent a lot of time sitting waiting. Well took the plunge this year and bought a mk3 . Problem is the locator collars keep on catching on the nets as the ferrets pass through and messing them up..Any tips to stop this happening would be much apprecitiated. Thanks all

    What are your views on breeding true to type. Worker to worker is the only way forward so why do so many of us stay breed specific. I'm as guilty as anyone but am now questioning it. What does it matter what it looks like as long as it does what you want. if working ability is all we are looking for wont types come and go as we strive for a better and better working terrier. All views and input more than welcome. Thanks

    i'm not on about when a dog gets knocked about a bit on a dig i'm talking about if a dog needed some expesive veterinary treatment. good dogs are hard to come by . you think the time and money you spend on a good dog. where do you draw the line are you gonna let a good bitch die if she needs a c section. or a dog suffer with a bust up leg. was just asking to see if anyone did insure thier working terriers.looks like most don't.
  22. border man
    having just spent £300 on my bitch and no pups either was wondering if it was worth getting insurance in future on all my working terriers would cost a bit each month . have never really had to spend out in the past only antibiotics and jabs.do any working terrier boys insure thier dogs.thanks
