ratattack 111 Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Hi guys, new to the forum and looking into getting a jagdterrier. I currently work a 5yr old JRT for rats, rabbits and in the beating line and am looking for a hunting companion for him. I can't find any info on UK working/ or breeders. Plenty info from on the continent tho. Any suggestions, i don't want to import one if i can help it due to costs! Quote Link to post

wexford Pa 84 Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 I seriously looked into importing these dogs from a breeder in Poland (working and had money at the time) but it costs a bomb n he wont come over with just 1, he'l come with at least a pair and the breeder brings them to your door himself.. And these dogs are serious dogs and come with a warning tag.. There very headstrong and need constant work to fill there need for activity.. They would be far too hard for fox work, they would be just in and crush not just kill.. These are bred for bigger badder game.. The plus side is there good workers and loyal.. Personally id love to put a jagd line into a lurcher, i bet theyd make serious lurchers.. all the best.. Pa Quote Link to post

Pa Making Lurchers? some jadgs never stop barking, in the kennel,on a lead, in the car, in the field, not sure you need that in a lurcher. They are bred to drop In it's habits, the jadgs seems more like a teagle than a terrier and in Europe they seem to be less used for digging than patts or russels. They are first and foremost a pig/wild boar driving dog rather than a digging dog. Eric,vermin dog and a few more on here have access to the best ones in Europe but they don't want them or use them for digging, that has to tell you something? Bryan Quote Link to post
Waz 4,262 Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Bit of a generalisation, but they are a super crazy dog, absolutely bouncing of the walls. Their prey drive is of off the scale. Good for foxing but not for digging. I dig with a few lads who keep them, they will only bring them if we are foxing or coypu clearing. A good friend has 4, all have electronic collars for in the kennel, he has vowed never to keep another, we have tried one of his a few times on something stronger and it was emotional.

Guest MADRA DUBH Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Very few Jadg lines are worth keeping as digging dogs jmo . Quote Link to post
waidmann 105 Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 if you look at the thread a couple of weeks ago you will see that the jagd IS bred from fox terrier,manchester terrier and some other stuff( bred by the german fox terrier club breakaway). they are bred as multi task dogs. in germany most do not dig but bolt. they are not bred as big game dogs( yes they are used on grizzly,boar,elephant tracking etc) they are bred as terrier( latin earth dog). the prey drive is immense making them good tracking dogs. i have personnally seen a jagd spend two days with a raccoon to ground( losing his chin) and when we got to him he still wanted more.sound like a digging dog?
