If there were any sent out then it would have been to the 2 outer islands which have introduced fox populations. Apart from those there are no foxes in the Falklands...plenty of rats though!

 

Being such a small place we did enquire with those who have terriers (there are a couple of borders, a yorkie and a few JR) but all of these are neutered/spayed pampered pets! Terriers aren't really thoguht of as working dogs here as the mentality is for sheep dogs only (and much of what is considered the signs of a good working dog comes from a load of old wives' tales)!

some collies can be decent ratters, worth a try anyway

As forest said not just terriers will kill rats .. But why not go to the uk and just go buy a pair of terrier pups off some good stuff save all this asking for pups on here.

to terrierman:

a) you cannot import a dog to the islands uner 12 months old

for your info we've had some great helpful people give plenty of good advice from on here

c) if it was all theat simple I wouldn't have posted on here in the first place

 

to Gonetoearth:

exactly...the advice offered on these forums has mostly been great. Cheers for all your help, you're a star!

 

To anyone else reading this:

This thread had actually been pretty much put out to pasture, but I thought it would be only polite for me to answer the question about foxes in the islands. Hence why I replied and unfortunately refreshed an old post!

"promote differnt types of hunting", what in fucks creation ar you waffling on about? what has this got to do with a person trying to get a terrier for rats?

Didnt read your above thread as iv seen it in the wanted section looking for a dog ...

[forest of dean redneck 11,530]

all was trying to say was instead of going to expence of importing in ,

try whats to hand

 

some farm dogs collies etc self enter and even a terrier thats been a pet for years can wake up when given the chance.

 

just because its a pet or neutured doesnt mean it cant start ratting if encouraged.
