if you can get it sorted mate good on you and the offer of funding i think you might have to go cap in hand eat humble pie whatever on the campsie thread they might just turn out to be your allies -- all ready got a show in place that needs a boost by the sound of it but the 2 could work hand in hand ...

The lad,is the Master of the Renfrewshire,Still Whips in for them an in his 60s now ,Ex Police inspecter to boot.

I think He knows abit about hunting an digging,employes a VERY knowledgeable man to do his digging for him Now!,Best Just join his Organisation an give them your money or the umpteen other clubs already in existince,Strathclyde,Brig O Lea,Scottish,Kelvin,Neilston,ETC... :friends:

brown nose or what.so because hes ex copper we should join them fuk off.the other clubs mentioned are all about shows,not rescueing dogs in trouble.and what i remember they are all cliques.go up to scone and watch that fife mob in action fkn brilliant all the trophys ,food etc gets dished out between themselves.how can fmwtc be any good when you can never get hold of someone when you need them ,and yes i was a member.look between all the shows sorry clubs mentioned get your finger out and do something about it.

I don't think he's brown nosing, just stating facts. If you're not happy with the fmwtc in you're area then you should start you're own rescue club. Look forward to seing how you get on

"you should start your own rescue club" isnt that what the lad said in the 1st place.

Obviously you have'nt seen Neilston Working Dog Association Display boards that show we promote terrier rescues or that were' members of the "NWTF" or have read a news article in a local paper here! where members of the NWDA rescued a member of the publics terrier that went to ground and got stuck! as for cliques at show's? Neilston pride themselves in being hospitable to everyone, strangers and friends Members at Neilston also don't enter their own dogs in class's therefore cant win trophy's at their own show unless there's a members only class which there was'nt this year!!

i have to agree that the working terrier scene is very fragmented in scotland. the fmwtc is poorly supported. and a lot of the clubs are close knit affairs. a sign of the times i suppose. what happened to the club that was having meetings to form a comittee any rescue service is welcome. new or old.

 

edited to add.pm for my support.

Not trying to sound like a jerk but why would a working terrier need to be rescued if they are not making the grade, or they are crap bred for the pet trade? Do the breed a favor an jus put em down. If you really want to do something for working terriers you might consider taking the funds you planned to put toward a rescue and make a donation to a hunt club that is fighting against anti hunting ligislation? Your generousity is deeply appreciated.
