    buetifull fish, wish i could afford to go there! but grayling and bass do for me fine. It can be expensive to fish for Bones, but it is worth the money, they go like stink, down to the backing in seconds and they are such a cracking looking fish. I like to catch Grayling too. My friend has a boat on the Solent and regularly fishes for Bass; we were supposed to fish for them last year but he said that the poor weather in May would have produced poor results, so it never happened. We hope to have a bash this May.

    Who said they were slow to enter???

    Surely not Borders that young? As I said earlier, there's may Border experts on here but I'm not sure if they have ever had a dog successfully enter at all. Plummer's books should help you, although his field of expertise wasn't really earth-dogs.

    If it's a true Border (ie. not pure black), he's far too young to work; they are 'notoriously slow to enter', but it appears that so many people who post on here know that, perhaps they could offer some real, hardcore, no-nonsense advice.

    But if they were sold as Borders, irrespective of what you paid, you was still conned; plenty of people on here knock the KC registration scheme and - admittedly - it has been, and can be, abused, but at least the breed standard helps to preserve the breed. One good thing Daleboy, if it isn't a true Border, at least you won't have a long wait for it to enter. Notwithstanding, if it was a pure Border, what would have been Border money? £500? £400? Unpapered - £200? £150? Now it's not a Border, what's it worth? £10? The irony here is, if Daleboy had paid £500 and it was a true bre

    I'm probably gonna get slagged for this, from the KC Standard: 'Colour Red, wheaten, grizzle and tan, or blue and tan.'

    Taking a well-earned rest after a dig. From nearly 25 years ago - when I had hair. My old warrior, now pretty much retired.

    I know Plummer was an expert on working terriers; hell, he wrote the books to prove it, great reads, I love fiction. Anyway, I know many here have a down on Borders - such is life - but the breed standard for a Border starts: 'Essentially a working terrier'; the Parson has a similar clause. I couldn't see anything like this in Plummer's own Breed Standard. Does that tell us anything? Over to you Keeps...
