Hello all I live just on the outskirts of Stranraer and very interested in Rabbiting (Lurchers, terriers and ferrets) and Ratting (although not experienced in both sports) is there any like minded people in the area, if so or you know of anybody could they please contact me on here or via my email- scottdr64@aol.com Cheers Scott

Na what people are saying on here I doubt it also. But if you dont ask you will never find out

Cheers mate, much appreciated I think i will probably go with a Bedlington. As said earlier I done a little when I was a kid and now 44 retiring soon(ish) and always been interested in field sports. So I will spare time on my hands (and it will keep me from the boozer). I live in the country now (in Scotland) so I will be looking at this site for tips and advice.

Look fella ye dont have to be an expert to know the manchester terrier is bolloxed as a working breed dont belive everything ye read in a dog breeds book ye buy from a local book shop,if ye want a working terrier get one from working parents that are doing the job you would like the pup to do ie if ye want a dog for ratting buy it from decent ratting stock if ye want it for bushing buy it from folks that bush there terriers and so on,do not waste your time buying an over priced k.c registered show dog or pet that has about as much working ability as a bag of walkers crisps either 2 things will

Cheers mate, thats what I needed to hear. The Mr.s liked the look of one for a pet and I wondered if they were still any good (altho they look fragile). Looked at some sites and didnt get much info. Thats why I asked on here.

Thanks for the excellent replies, just wish I was an expert like you lot.

I used to ferret years ago with a friend of mine in Newcastle, I am now living in South West Scotland (near Stranraer) and looking to get back into it, is anyone in that area or does anyone know of anyone ferreting Cheers

Hello all I a looking at getting a Manchester terrier as a working dog, has anyone any thoughts on this or opinions?
