fireman 11,033 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 I haven't seen anyone ever say they have "digging" plummers,what i have and what i have seen is we/they have plummers that can have a dig when the oppertunity arises.I've never called my plummers good or "the real deal" what i have done is stick up for the breed when the "real deal men" just mock at us that are giving them a go,just like the "wonder boys" jibe.I like i say would have come down to have a day just to show you a plummer having a go,nothing more,nothing less as unlike these "real terriers" where every lines a winner my plummer that i can have a dig with has her faults,but how could i when you think like that of me already and i've never met or spoken to you ever?.Do you ever put up a deer stalking for pricks only offer? and like i say thanks but no thanks.

FightTheBan 1,147 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 They are a joke terrier. I would place them in the same category as glen of immal, sporting lucas etc. Yes the occasional one may do a spell underground, but you would have better odds getting a tit wank off cheryl cole.

FTB you obviously have never seen a glen in action ..As foxes are all its legal to dig -how good does a dog have to be - fucks sake ive seen yorkies that worked foxes fairly well..Are there really that many shit dogs out there? Theres good and bad in every breed-even in every litter some are going to be a lot better than others...mine are working to ground ( i only keep them for digging mainly) ,as did their dam as did her parents--this is my point -people were breeding good terriers before literacy,education etc. were generally available to the population.worker to worker wont go far wrong,,rather than breeding for the right colour,size etc. and hoping they work..

Moll. 1,770 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 the dog in the pic was about twice the weight of the plummer terriers you see today. This is only my opinion, but based on my experiences. When the plummers were first around, they were bred to hopefully be digging dogs. Hence the shape/size they were. When the hunting ban came in certain breeders (not all) have changed the look of the terrier, after first promoting the dog as an earth dog they changed tact as they believed at first digging was banned, then realised that the general public would find the thought of a dog killing fox less appealing than a dog killing horrible nasty vermin, so the current plummers you see are skinny long legged, now promoted as ratting dogs...why...MONEY.

tinytiger 851 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 ive seen yorkies that worked foxes fairly well.. :laugh:about 20 years ago now,she was k.c registered and all..Just an example ,are the foxes in the u.k on steroids or something.

FightTheBan 1,147 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Talk is cheap tiny tiger. If you do indeed have what you say you have, you are in the minority(massively). The type is still fecked as a genuine digging terrier. FTB Quote Link to post

The type is still fecked as a genuine digging terrier. FTB if you are ever over this side of the pond give me a shout for a dig. Id be inclined to agree with you about the breed in general though (from what ive heard).. try and bring cheryl cole with you for the tit wank as well Edited January 27, 2011 by tinytiger Quote Link to post
MOO 730 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 You have to have a chuckle when you read plummer threads plummer owners are always a bit touchy http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/182163-another-dig-this-morning/page__st__45 Funny how no plummer owners have taken foxdropper up on his offer?????

Rey27 83 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Plummer threads ALWAYS turn into arguments either from the people who like them or the people who hate them! why cant we just accept the fact that eveyone likes different things in a dog and looks for different things from his own dog. yes the breed is more o' less fecked but atleast there are people out there still trying to work it and breed away from the S H I T E!
