  1. i think you can blame "wizard of oz" "something about mary", tv adverts and soaps. there turning up on tv more and more now
  2. yeah i work her, she does everything i ask her and would love a litter from her but i was just wary of the risks with [bANNED TEXT] people told me but your right who in there right mind would breed a genuine worker at 2 or 3?
  3. i am looking for advice from experienced terrier breeders, is 4 to old to take a first litter from a border terrier. i have heard that the age should b 3 max and this could lead to problem pregnancies. thanks in advance
  4. yeah i know what you mean, i love them to and in my experience with them they are great for exactly what i do. i would breed my own bitch but she is four now and they say that there is more likely to b problems for a first litter at this age. as she is irreplacable im not taking the chance.
  5. does anyone have or know anyone with a litter of working border terrier pups or will have some shortly?
  6. I would go for it mate, if it's from decent stuff and the cross that you want right enough. I got a dog at a year and a half that was chasing sheep, wouldn't jump and was really spooky but it was from good stuff and I saw potential in it so I took a chance and spent the summer working on it, come the autumn, the spookiness was gone, it was jumping great and stock broken. Add that into it that it was catching nearly everything it chased. If you put the time in and persevere with the problems they can b worked out in my opinion.
  7. yeah its not bad, just to broaden the horizons a bit more thats all
  8. is there anymore running dog forums on the net?
