you got a nice pup there mate ,and dont be listerning to what anyone else tells you ,you should have told her to f@@koff and take her mongral somewere else ,and if she breeds them ,then thats the point a lot of people on this site are going on about all the time .

av spoke to the lad that bred them and he said thares no beddy what so ever in them her litter sister is tottaly diffrent and so is the rest of the litter thats my point bud if they were line bred they would all be the same stamp of terrier and look the same ,and more so work the same or a better percentage would and you dont have to weed out all the faults and the dogs that wont do the job............. nice terrier there hepher looks a proper black dog to me and thats the point i was trying to make

dog scratching his ears constantly
dog fox replied to stick's topic in Working Dog Health & Training Talk

the pulse box and pieps box both have the multi burials features ,which i use .if you have 2 dogs collared up up stand over first dog and it will say mark on the screen ,when the second dog is located after being entered into a earth it will do the same ,once you locate the dog and screen says mark thats bang on the dog ,and is abit better than just reading the numbers which it doe,s if only one collar is used ,plus it save,s on keep turning collars on and off and changing from dog to dog ,dont think many people have picked up on this so i thought i,d give it a mention ,dont, no if the orto do
