jawn 449 Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 jawn-That could be the worst barbwire cut I have ever seen! I hope she pulls thru... Take care. It just hit me Doc. I ain't all that bright so you'll have to forgive me. I haven't ever hunted dogs like y'all do up there, so it took me a minute. I'm sure barbwire is a nightmare for what you do. One of these days I'll get with someone who drops running dogs on coyote. Looks like as much fun as one man can have. Quote Link to post

Stabs would be the man to ask. http://www.ratting.c...ml/history.html Billy was a bulldog cross bull & terrier and considered the progenitor of the Manchester Terrier, despite being a white dog. The Manchester Terrier claim means he often gets mistaken for a black and tan dog called Tiny who was also a terror of the rat pits Quote Link to post
