lurcher330 2,301 Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 i got a phone call off a lad last night ,he has a working staff bitch ,she works more so as a strong dog but she has been dug to aswell but she is a bit too big to be classed as a digging dog but anywhere she can fit she will go ,but anyway he was thinking about breeding her during her next season and was thinking could he use my lakeland dog ,they would not be what i would like as a ground dog and i dont really have a problem with him using my dog as a stud because i know the bitch is not a complete w"anker and the pups could come good ,but has anyone else had this type or ever see 1 working before and have any pics,this breeding never crossed my mind before but it sounds interesting Quote Link to post

Strong Stuff 2,171 Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 Will he be culling the ones he doesn't keep or home? The last place you'd want to see them is on the free ads I'm sure. Quote Link to post
lurcher330 2,301 Posted December 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 well his plan is to keep a couple back for his own use and maybe give what ever else out to mates and my self if they are wanted,not doing it to make a few quid ,he just wants something back from his bitch he can dig with,and he has no problem with culling anything thats not gona be wanted Quote Link to post

liamdelaney 2,587 Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 First cross are usually very hard.Second cross(quarter)should not be as hard(i have two of them.Third cross(1 eight)are game little dogs.If he wants to go down that road if he crosses i eight back to 1 eight they he should be good little dogs.This is what a lot of old timers done years ago I worked loads of them most were little killers.Some came to greaf on badger but they could kill foxes all day long.
