One of my pups is 15 tts and 23 pounds at 8 months, i was starting to think he was getting too big but by the sounds of it i neednt worry too much :thumbs:

 

all depends what you need it to do for you. i was a sporting hunter and spent many hour waiting for my big uns to dig upto a fox that a little could have sorted in aq tenth of the time. my main aim was to get out and enjoy working my terriers. results where more a bonus than a nessesity.cs

spot on cleanspade f*****g spot on

Tools in the bag I think is the word, well maybe not tool, but handy dogs for different situations.

More people should think what they need for the places they work their dogs.

ie bi places, tight places and type of ground, just like a lurchers work as well, you wouldnt choose a saluki to bush with, dogs for jobs.

Just like the 10 minute wonder, worth their weight to a lot, then you get others who would waste their time.

Something like that could actually save trying to dig an undiggable place if you were to enter a dog that was a stayer, whereby would save you from the chance of loosing a decent dog.

I hope this make sense, im not pissed, and am sure the more experienced lads can see where im coming from.
