    The day I became an honorary member of Nez de Cuir. Hubert Coipel, master of Nez de Cuir, offered me one of his best tools. Very proud.

    Long handled round mouths ? Its usual here, I've some short ones too. When it's deep, we dig large holes. No problem with long handle round mouths.

    In France we have different ways of hunting. And we love dogs. But we love laws and rules too... I think you have more freedom.

    Badger season is closed. But if some are building their set in wrong places, we are allowed to work.

    Thanks to Google ! I just find this link to a canadian club and his Master Earthdog. I'm not teasing... http://www.rideauterrier.com/earth-dog.html Master Earthdog (ME) Master Earthdog is the ultimate title an earthdog can obtain. To achieve this title, two dogs are drawn at random. As a brace, the dogs hunt for the tunnel entrance from a distance of 100 to 300 yd (91 to 270 m). They must actively indicate where the tunnel entrance is located. Then, one at a time, the dogs move through the tunnel passing obstacles that simulate roots and constrictions in the tunnel. The maste

    I don't know concerning Master Earth Terrier, may be to far ffrom realities. If some use artificial sets, I prefer to look at the work in a natural set. According my way : Ability to search, going far and deep, engagement to hunt and push the prey, barks qualities (strong and regular, durable for long time), tenacity (don't come out during the hunt, never leave the prey), ability to face an attack (no retreat, just a little), ability to stop a fight without retreat, ability to work without too much nervousness. And for the end, ability to do all the job without too much injuries.

    Why does the French terrierman like a big dug hole? Because he always digs with a pickaxe and so he needs a big place. On the other hand, he spots the dog with a bar. It's not always very precise. A large hole reduces the risk of digging in the wrong place. Moreover, he isn't hurry and he isn't alone in digging. Over here, a very good dug hole is : rectangular, straight walls, sharp angles, broken behind the dog or just above. The best is flat bottom at the bottom of the gallery before taking the dog. One search, one dog, one badger. Honestly, We don't dig like this ea
