hedz31 1,308 Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Its just a terrier mate it dont matter if its lakeyxrussell, fell ,pattxlakey , etc etc if its from a working line look at the dogs its bred from dont be so specific in whats others of this cross are like, if the dog bred from good honest workers thats what ye should be looking at and thats half the battle in getting a decent terrier then theres your part in how ye enter it,the rest is up to the dog itself some simply dont make it no matter how they are bred, to many folks look at breeds and crosses in terriers instead of just simply looking at the line a pup has come from hope the pup works out for ye fella 5 Quote Link to post

oohmydog 82 Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 Crossbred terriers bred from grafter to grafter they seem to work and live forever you wont win any rosettes but your shovel will be well used Quote Link to post
lloyd-holmes 15 Posted August 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 i like them mate should make good dogs if u put the work in to them what they need what do you mean put the work into them that they need ? ......i dont mean this question to sound brain dead but i was just wondering if you mean correct entering methods or more work than other breeds in order to make a good worker ?? sorry about the questions Quote Link to post
