manchester terrier crosses????

[solostoke 1]

its a blast from the past mate,my grandad had 1 when i was a kid,it was a right tough little fecker,it was a awesome worker rats rabbit,did charlie for fun and lived to a ripe old age of 11,sadly tho i think theyve gone the same way as a lot of other working terrier breeds,either ruined by the crufts lot or sadly no longer exist,i hope you find some working strain out there cos if my grandads dog is owt go by they were very handy dogs

 

how an earth would crufts ruin a breed ? lol its a show where the dogs are breed to the absolute best quality with years of pedigree generations , if anything it promotes the breed to the very best of what it is ,

have you tryed looking for a pure manchester terrier ?

here you go mate all the best

yeh i suppose youre right,the lakies that enter crufts look the absolute best quality,i bet they could work allday everyday :crazy:

 

 

so a dog thats shown has no ability to work and no basic instinct to hunt ?

 

no, but they breed best looker to best looker whereas we breed best worker to best worker. what do you think will work best???

let me know if you get one im considering it myself lol

 

im not, jus got space for the 1 dog. but my mates dog would be up for stud!!!

 

Maybe it`s a good idea, perhaps you could post a pic of the dog, and tell us more about it, i.e. height, weight, and what type of work it`s done....

Crufts HAS ruined many breeds of dogs !!! That is why the BBC, Pedigree Petfoods, the RSPC and The Dogs Trust have all pulled out of supporting Crufts !!

Crufts is just a show,!!!! Fashion, poor breed standards, and peoples interpritation of those breeds standards is whats ruined many pedigree breeds.

its a blast from the past mate,my grandad had 1 when i was a kid,it was a right tough little fecker,it was a awesome worker rats rabbit,did charlie for fun and lived to a ripe old age of 11,sadly tho i think theyve gone the same way as a lot of other working terrier breeds,either ruined by the crufts lot or sadly no longer exist,i hope you find some working strain out there cos if my grandads dog is owt go by they were very handy dogs

 

how an earth would crufts ruin a breed ? lol its a show where the dogs are breed to the absolute best quality with years of pedigree generations , if anything it promotes the breed to the very best of what it is ,

Crufts could improve the breed quality and health of many spoilt breeds, such as King Charles Spaniels, English Bulldogs, Bassetts, etc., simply by refusing such breeds entry to their show, until the breeds improved in health and confomation.

Cheers.
