IMO YOU CAN ONLY BE A MARKSMAN OR A DOGMAN AND NOT BOTH. Anyone who claims to enjoy both equally is full of cock and bull. If you have a couple of descent lurchers you'll want to be testing them on the lamp regular and i know it breaks my heart to see the fox shot by these absolute morons with these rifles. The popularity of these rifles has got to beyond a joke now and lads are driving through places they have absolutely no right to be picking of foxes at ease. The dogman marksman row will always continue. Wish them no luck whatsoever and will be more than happy to meet them on the country ro

Entering young terriers
Black Dog Enthusiast replied to lurcher330's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
Good reply! Would you say that terriers that are on the larger size are harder started? You no what i mean?less room to move,having to push himself into the hole? I think its down to the mentality of the terrier,you'll see some that are tearing the sod of to get goin and others have to begently coaxed along.A large type will struggle to go in a small earth if it has no experience,where as a small one can travel through the tubes easy enough without having to push on or dig its way up to its quarry.We always try to pick the right earths to start entering a young dog,somewhere they will ha -

Once at the most twice is all that i would show a young dog. Too much can have the dog pick up a bad habit. -
24th ANNUAL ALL IRELAND CHAMPIONSHIPS
Black Dog Enthusiast replied to AlbertJ's topic in Gamefairs, Meet Up's and Events
Well we will agree to disagree, there will be a lot of black dogs entered in this dog/bitch class. There could be in excess of 25 dogs entered therefore i feel it would only be fair that the category be split into dog and bitch class. -
24th ANNUAL ALL IRELAND CHAMPIONSHIPS
Black Dog Enthusiast replied to AlbertJ's topic in Gamefairs, Meet Up's and Events
Nice too see a working terrier class in the line up. As for the other classes should dogs and bitches be judged in the same class? Me thinks not as if it was me judging it would take a mighty fine bitch to beat a dog therefore think bitches should have a class of their own. Maybe just in the more popular classes such as the black dogs. -
LURCHER & TERRIER EVENTS
Black Dog Enthusiast replied to poacherslad22's topic in Gamefairs, Meet Up's and Events
Will fair play too you, for genuine people are few and far between. The bickering and bitching surrounding these shows is unreal, you just have too look at the above posts too see what i mean DannyBoi. Im not a fan of the shows and never show dogs but have been at plenty in my time and its the same faces at different places that are winning these. In some cases their dogs wholely deserve it but, unfortunately not in a lot of cases. -
LURCHER & TERRIER EVENTS
Black Dog Enthusiast replied to poacherslad22's topic in Gamefairs, Meet Up's and Events
Why is there certain lads taking this so badly, the game shows are only a bit of craic to meet up with like minded people and have a run through the previous season and the one forthcoming. Too a lot of people this is their season as they don't work dogs just show them so just let them at it as there will always be that degree of favouritism in the ring no matter what. If you are an unknown with a cracking lurcher/terrier you will not be in the top three come the end so no point dwelling on it. Its just the way things are. -
VERY WELL SAID. APPLY'S TO A LOT OF LADS ON THIS SITE...

middleton bred lakeys
Black Dog Enthusiast replied to !tony!'s topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
Working Lakelands are few and far between in modern ages. There are lads on here that keep there own line of working lakeland and fair play to them but if you go to a show in Eire you will find that there is more Lakelands being showed at shows than any other breed and there is no doubt the majority of these dogs have never been dug too. The lads that have them will talk about GM Lines and how there dogs are bred but they've spent more time with the Hairdryer over the top of them than in the ground with lads digging over the top of them. Shame too see as they use to be a very useful worker and -

I was made aware a while ago that there were large gangs up my way with hounds and lurchers and they were cutting holes in sheep wire were ever they needed to get hounds through. They were on the ground without permission. On sunday past i met with a local farmer and he took me up the field and showed me a hole in the fence 600x600mm for dogs to get through. Lambing season is upon us and he has to fix the fences in question too keep sheep in. There is suspicions off who it is but IF ANYONE ON HERE KNOWS ABOUT THIS LET THEM KNOW IT WON'T BE TOLERATED. I will put a picture up later of the damage

If its a working terrier show what would be the point in having a plummer class. Why not have a fanny licking class and they can enter that.

Gav22 are you saying that with this bitch being that hard you get more digs in a day with this same bitch??? I find this very hard to believe as usually a hard dog will only get one dig any given day as they usually get themselves in such a state that they won't be able to come out of the sick bay for a few weeks. You say she kills without taking much damage, Would love to dig a few foxes up your way as i certainly don't get that where i am.

Earthdogs with Bull blood
Black Dog Enthusiast replied to Black Dog Enthusiast's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
Very true Spiderpig but in a lot of lines of russells i've seen work the odd dog can be hard and the bitches can be out and out sounders and thats were a bit of bull can enhance the line. It would only need done every so often. I personally don't own any white dogs and don't intend too but there is some very tidy lines of white dogs with a bit of bull in them. Note i say 'bit of bull' as thats all thats needed. Don't see the point in these doggs that are the closest thing to a bull they can get, defeats the purpose imo. But maybe i know f**k all either spiderpig Uru, nice looking type tha -

Black Dog Enthusiast replied to Black Dog Enthusiast's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
Will agree with you in that there are some good russells with bull blood in them. Gives them that wee bit of 'go' that they need. -

For a place with so many so called experts theres not one reply to this thread. Hard to believe. -
Opinions on the above. Can work with the right line, can also prove to be a disaster.
