forest of dean redneck 11,679 Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 i had to go to the first page to reread the question,what is the point of crossing patterdales with staffs.in dorset when my grandad was alive the country village pub he used,the old time locals talked of small staffs or fighting dogs as they were called being used as draw dogs at end of fox and badger digs.they crossed too improve gameness and head quality in the terriers.it was to be honest also used if they wanted pups and didnt have or afford a stud terrier this is mainly jrs,or mixed breed terriers. where i live now there was a dog like poachers old terrier 3 yrs ago. first x jr/staff it got a rep as a cat mangler and either the family moved or the dog vanished.

Pipey Magregor 0 Posted June 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Anyone got any more pics of Staff/Patt crosses? I've seen a couple but I am interested in seeing some more. How is it best to cross them would you say if there is any difference at all? Bitch Staff or Bitch Patterdale ? Quote Link to post

terrierman taunton vale 82 Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 I dont think there's any point in it if you've got the right stuff to start with,and if you have'nt got the right stuff dont breed it with anything.I dont think Buck or Breay ever used bull terrier blood in their lines. maybe i was misinformed (SP) on buck or breay using a bull blooded terrier very early on in the breeding program they had, but i was only told this, and also that they used this dog as a seizure dog at the end of a dig, but then maybe i was told wrong again???? all i do know is that they only bred from the gamest /best working terriers that they had or could use,,, not like nowa days where the dogs are churned out for profit,, with hardly a thought about working abilaty(SP sorry),, buck and breay did use bull blood in there breeding as white socks were common in there dogs through the years and this is a sign of bool blood. cheers Jamie Quote Link to post
