great honest post, need more ppl like you on here rather than the my dog this my dog that!! in this game you will never stop learning and anyone who thinks they know it all knows feck all.

Off to BnQ tommorrow to get me one of them green fox sheds!!!

most people on here are here for a reason,( the love of working dogs i hope) so why do some people go out their way to shoot others in the foot? its a great website set up for country sports people who all have the same passion for hunting etc i bet the anti brigade love coming on here to read about us all doing all the wrong things! have a think before you post ffs. all the best laner

bit of a no brainer really; yeh you can take a chance and get a pup off any old tom dick or harry without knowing any history about it or them and prob save a few ££ but the time you are gonna put into it bringing it on etc may well and prob will backfire on you in the end. i will always buy from proven parents or at least from people who i know work their terriers. people have put years n years of hard work and patience into getting their dogs to work to their best of their ability (time n patience that i haven't im affraid) i have let them do all the hard work for me. iv had terriers an

They look just like a perfectly legal fox trap to me!! of course you need bait to catch them

the invention of the locator was a great thing but i also think its made poor terriers look good and great terriers look average,

had a 15lb rainbow on a hand line while the lady i was doing an extention for was out walking her dogs!! river itchen ran thru her garden and i just had to do it lol

the back of the plate is stamped in black CAULDON with England written smaller underneath. there is also a large stamped black 6. Finally, in red it says L 6742 B the dog sure has some ragged ears. Looks like a worker. I wonder if it's a specific dog or more of a generalization? I think you will find that the ears are pinscher, just like the doberman pinscher, a bit like tail docking but done a few weeks later. all the best on finding out the history of the dog and i would love to hear about it. sure beats my socks n a bottle of old spice!!!

Got bit good n proper on the hand by a fox shot DEAD in a net with a 410, My god the pain was unbelievable, it was actually gnawing on me as if to say "have some of that" That was 20 years ago and i aint been bit since, lesson learnt the hard way!! Been bit by a hound since while i was trying to free it from a fence it was caught in but that was nothing compared to the pain of charlie!!!

Totally agree mate, years ago before i moved to not so sunny somerset i had 20 thousand acres of land in hampshire but only ever found in a few remote locations. its not the acres you have i think its more how the land is made up,

Whenever i obtained new ground i would always look for anywhere a bit higher ie banks hills etc, anywhere water wont settle and make the earth ( well lets just say not so cosy ) Im not saying you wont find them in wet horrid places but think like a fox and you will normally come up trumps. Be prepared for many a mile walking thru thick n thin dragging your kit n terriers but dont give in. Or you can be a lazy git like me and let 30 hounds and a landrover do the work for you!! Thinking back to the old times i think it was a better test of man n dog before i got involved with the hunt, Its

Hi Gerry, im not knocking you or anything but pedigree n papers for a terrier! Maybe im just old school but in all my years involved with hunting and terriers i have never come across a terrier with papers ( apart from the daily star in its kennel as bedding ) My papers n pedigree about a pup have always been a look at parents and as much info about them as you can obtain. all the best laner Hi there yes you are absolutely correctin in what you say, i have kept working dogs on and off for 50years never had papers, but this is a different situation, when there have been a few more replie
