[John.s 4]

There has never been a goood terrier or terrierman south of Staffordshire fact

thats easy the one and only down south

[superfurryanimal 91]

Alright lads we've all heard of the great terrier men of the north from years gone by. But was wondering was there any from the south?

 

 

No mate, no terriermen at all in the South not even one, so, no terriermen obviously means no 'great' terriermen, however you might judge 'great'. Us soft southerners would be afraid to put a terrier down a hole and anyway we'd be too weak to dig one out and our hands would get all blistered and mucky if we tried so we wouldn't want to anyway. We leave terrier work to hard northern types and to welshies - at least when they can get their eyes off the sheep for long enough. Just out of curiosity, what do you mean by 'great' does great just mean well known or a prolific breeder of teriers or what?

oi ! leave us welshies out of this !

Eddie Chapman :whistling:

 

 

if you like him or not you must admit that he is a great terrierman.

 

 

I admire the fact that he WAS a great terrierman but I hate the fact that he has sold his soul for ££££

 

Nowt wrong with Eddie but as with most he started the businness side of terriers

 

Have entered alot for Eddie a few years ago and found the old whiskey drinking fart a good blunt arrogant typical welshman

 

a man of his calibre being slated

Just my opinion mate he was a great terrierman but you know as well as I that he has sold out I know for a pup he sold to a daft keeper this year with a mouth so bad it should have been pts if it isnt about the £ then why sell that pup and that isnt the only instance

Dave Allibone a very good Terriermen he had some good lakelands and Border and like to cross them dig a few time to his dogs his lakelands were G M line Dave was a true and honest man

What about Nick Stevens ?

He must be a great terrier-man as everyone with a brown dog claims it is Stevens bred

and then Darcy wrote a book about him

All this must at least equal greatness

And, there ain't too many men about like that.....
