working terriers are not pets simple reason being they mess up and they gotta go you can like a working terrier but you can never love one you never no what will happen when your mouching about :big_boss:

Ditto here, I would be shelled big style if I quoted the "pet" names she calls my pack LOL

the terriers we breed wouldnt be suitable for pet homes. i agree with carraghsGem on this. atb mrs A.R.D

Our two Nuttal terriers lived in.... the photos above remind me of them...they were hard as nails but soft in the house.

Just cos your mates dog is like that it doesnt mean every terrier thats kept for digging (which in my opinion most should be) is of the same temperement. My lakie x pats are equally at home in the ken

built for groundwork maybe, un-naturally cuddly with badgers definately.

fish what do you do when the badger gets older do you leave it around the dogs because surley it cant be fully tame

it lives out now and comes back some times for food.

All my dogs have to be workers and I like to keep them outside, and when im away to work my wife will bring 1 or 2 in and they are the wife and kids pets, i disagree entirely that they cant be both, a dogs working ability is in its genes not in wether they live in or out the house and wether they get fussed over or not.

depends of the breed + what work they are bred for, a lot of terriers bred for hard graft below ground dont make good pets, there is probably the occasional exception to this however.

 

my "pet" parson russel bitch has however turned into a good bushing terrier and only started hunting at the grand old age of 6 and a half, tbh, i didnt think she had it in her, shes 8 now and very handy when i go ferreting with the lurcher

Thats about right, my two Russels live in but they only go Rabbiting, my mate on the other hand goes digging and has got a lakeyxpat and i wouldnt let it near the bloody house its evil!
