well believe it or believe it not any dog alive today that is worked to a high standard has a lot too be grate full for as reguards bull blood it might of been added too some breeds 20 years ago and s

im aware of that mate im talking people that half cross staff to say a patt or russel if they feel the need to add bull to there terriers maybe they should look at the terriers there using my opinion

yip i tend too agree that some try and use it too make a bad terrier produce something thats better wrong way too go but its also been used on good well bred lines of terrier but through tight breedin

shes does what we want goes in and kills no waiting about for the dog to settle there fore we get alot more digs in a day than we would with a patt and she dosnt take much damage so shes ready to go anytime

 

Gav22 are you saying that with this bitch being that hard you get more digs in a day with this same bitch???

I find this very hard to believe as usually a hard dog will only get one dig any given day as they usually get themselves in such a state that they won't be able to come out of the sick bay for a few weeks. You say she kills without taking much damage, Would love to dig a few foxes up your way as i certainly don't get that where i am.

they put the bull in to make them gamer and at the end of the day bulls were intentionaly bred for drawing and baiting so a bit of bully goes a long way look at the wheeler types there as game as you like and a bit of bull in a russell dosent do any harm my mate had a bull russell and it could fand just as easy as your other types and far supassed your other types for gameness that dog could take some stick the morral of the story is dont put a type of dog down until you have ownd one or seem one work for yourself

Iagree with you here in eire 30 to 40 year ago there was a lot of bullxrussell then the black dogs came on the scene everyone wanted one and the bullx got left behind by most men where im from you could pick a russell type of the street back them and bring it out and it would work and im not talking fox pity the way its gone cause theres far more black shit about than bullxs

Yeah, we all know if you put abit of bull in there gonna be game, thats pretty obvious. :blink: But a working terrier shouldn't just be about gameness. Cyril breay and frank Buck bred for nose, working ability and cunning to work without getting badly mauled or damaged. A working terrier shouldn't just be a miniature pitbull!! :wallbash: It's more about hunting ability, brains, nose, cunning and of course

they've gotta be hard. Just adding bull you loose many of the other attributes. Most patts i see have far to much bull in them!! Is it to look tough, with loads of scars on the dogs...i think so!!! :thumbdown: Yeah anything with bull in it will make a kill, but hunting is about more than that....isn't it? :yes:

That's a v good reply and what I think a terrier should be

I dont like to see a terrier cut up either but i like to get the dog with 1 dig seen too many dogs get pushed just as your about to break through i dont put bull in just to look hard or macho its there for a reason its proper workin bull not just any shit our staff bitch has been tried and tested and we have dug her when need be she has excellent nose and will find and stay no prob she is not one of these big show shit im not saying every terrier needs it or every man shud do it but we like it an it works for us yis

dont forget that you also get hard dogs without any bull in them, i know a fela and he had little border crosses,they wernt much bigger than a rabbit but they were mental,too hard for there own good.it comes down to what stuff is in them,bull or not.

that nonsense gav proper digging dogs are not mute hard they need too work there quarry with brains i ve owned hard dogs and there s two in kennnells at moment one has eventually settled down after nearly 3 seasons work the other is still very hard and sometimes the hard dog can make a mess of a straight forward dig by spooking the quarry and not letting it settle the addition of bull blood should not be for aggression as bogger says if your terrier lacks courage then all the bull blood in the world wont help its time too look a better strain of terrier the bull will only benifit the good proper working strains but has too be used at right time by people who know what there doing

that bitch has yet to bark the ony thing we ever hear is her growling

so what gav she has nt barked drop her into a big place were she s going too have too stay and work for a few hours till you s break through too her and you ll see whats she s really made off i ve seen hard dogs get dug regualar in there first season in nice straight forward earths then second season when the eaths got harder and they had too stay they were in and out standing wrecked not wanting back after less than an hour so a young dog with 15 digs has still a long way too go yet and you ll find with enough work she ll soon learn too bark .

well il let ya know when she starts barking

fair play you do that gav hopefully sooner rather than later as she ll be twice the animal when she learns to give voice instead of taking punishiment keep her at it :thumbs:

Amen to that Dee
