Put a pic up.I know someone who had a litter last year and one pup was born with a very short tail in fact it was the length of a decent dock. to be honest pal i dont know what happend to his tail, the lad said his dad had docked them for foxing ? its down to his arse, there only bit of fluff round his arse end, like i said he was a chav so he must have had one 2 many white lightning ciders and decided he could dock tails, i'll try and sort a pic out. keeps saying the picture is too big to put on Quote Link to post

donnyc 1,203 Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 Shame they are a dying breed in the working side Why dont they add bull to the breed, like they do to patts. Or cross to some top patterdale. Didnt paterdales come from crossing border with black and tan working lakeland. Why put bull in them????? Quote Link to post
