Night Hawk 1 Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 Hi all i bought a pure beddy two weeks ago mother/father top all rounders.I only paid 150 euro for him at eleven months old.The guy i bought this dog of kept him in a shed full of shit with f**k all light.The dog was very nervous and i bought him more out of pity as no dog should be treated this way.When i got him home i chained him to the kennel as otherwise id have to chase him round the pen making him worse.Anyway one week later he was all lively tail waggling so i decided to give him a lamp with my lurcher two rabbits were caught he shook both well for first time in a field.Two days later i brought him hunting for his very first hunt with my lurcher he flew through ditches after rabbits then he bolted four deer giving great tongue.I was delighted then on way back to the car calling it a day he and my lurcher got on a fox he gave great tongue again.THIS IS MY FIRST BEDDY can annyone who have some give me advice on when to enter on charlie much appreciated Quote Link to post
morton 5,368 Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 Treat it the same as you would any other terrier,Bedlingtons make excellent bushing dogs,working below just take your time,there,s no rush,its still a pup.If its K.C. bred id be extremely surprised if its bred out of allround workers,if you,ve no paperwork with it and its bred out of grafters id say it will most likely be an hybrid.An hybrid Bedlington is a better prospect as an earth dog.Keep it working and post its progress,best of luck.

mc145 15 Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 Similar story to my border, he was around 4 month old and a nervous wreck, I felt sorry for him so I bought him,think he'd had some hammer hes around 11-12 month now and with a lot of patience hes really come out of his shell. Cant wait to see how he gets on below Quote Link to post
