    Ever since I've had him I've noticed his legs shaking when he's stood up.It's not very often it happens and it can be either the front or the rear legs but not both at the same time. Usually it's when he's stood facing a rabbit or something catchable,but I've seen it happen when we are visiting freinds who he knows,off field. I doubt it's fear as he's a tough little fekker and as bold as they go. If i grab hold of his legs it stops for a moment but when I let go it starts all over again. The vets don't seem to know what it is as I mention each time. Any of you guys experienced this?.

    Fortunately for me my property backs onto an Auction Mart,when I first got my fell terrier he was always nipping through to the mart even when stock was being overnited in there.He's sort of grew up with them and been no bother at all. Cats,rabbits and anything 'catchable' is another matter.

    Yep got there in the end Mick.I suppose patience is a virtue. I don't understand the sudden change after all this time,we've been out doing the same round since he was 12 weeks old. He's chessed them but always gives up when they go to ground. Took him out this morning and again he was at it,he's showing a real natural ability.Late developer?.

    Took 'the lad' out early this morning for the usual 3 mile rabbit chessing session with no result.He's a 3y.o. fell terrier btw. I called him over to hook him up to go back home but he seemed preoccupied in the hedgerow.He had his head down a rabbit burrow and started to dig.He showed a keenness I've never seen in him before,soon the earth was flying and he was snapping the roots with his jaws.After about 15 minutes,and much encouragement from me, a loud squeal was heard followed by the violent shaking of his head and the first young rabbit was thrown out dead.I turned round and punched the

    reading this thread with great interest. My 'lad' is a 3yo fell terrier from Cartmell Fell in Cumbria sired by a Middleton strain dog.He's a hard little bugger ,frightened of nothing,runs all day.Good rabbiter and ratter,not tried him on foxes yet.
