Tekels,earth dogs?

[weasle 1,119]

been out withol.,/['= these dog's dont rate them my self too big in the chest not what i would call a earth dog

not bad for bushing Rabbit old man's dog tbh they work like robots in a pack

 

 

 

you do get teckel that are "big in the chest" as with alot of terrier breeds.

most are bred to standard(spanable) and will work individually ( not just in pack.this is a part of the trials for breeding selection and so not breed typical) on all game/vermin. as i have said before they are the smallest hounds limited only by short legs( bred down to slow the chase of deer and boar).

i'm afraid i don't know anyone who breeds them in the uk you could try "teckelclub1888e.v." (german teckel club e-mail address).

Earths around here can run very tight,would need to be spanable.In germany are just standards working fox or are the minutures used as well?

the standard for the three types(discounting hair) is very clear that they should be of certain size and weight.

 

standard,dwarf,and rabbit.

standard and dwarf have to work fox the wee ones obviously rabbit to ground( they are tiny)to be passed for breeding.

if a fox can get in so can a well bred teckel/terrier(although its very surprising HOW the fox sometimes gets in :icon_eek: ).

p.s. the name stems from the words "dachs"= badger and hund=dog( teckel is a nickname for the working dachshound,meaning from tecklenburg).

Nice to see some pictures of the dogs working,Helps convince the wife we do actually have room for another dog(cute little sausage dogs)!Are there any names that you should be looking for in breeding of the dog,ie Stud dogs that throw working pups, any particaler kennels renound for workers, or to advoid.Thanks
