mick the fish 9 Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 FECKIN UNBELIEVABLE!!!I,ve just had my 13 week Beddy pup down the local park, I was strolling along minding my own business (alright I was hoping to bump into some hot women walking their dogs) when this couple came towards me with 4 show type "Bedlingtons"??? - anyway they asked me what lines my dog had in him - so I told them Rillington & Gutchcommon. They looked at me as if I was friggin mad and said never heard of them. Then the woman starts running her hands through my pups coat and procceds to tell me that he's "too wiry". and "a bit too dark" - OH YEAH I says of course they should be nearly white like yours eh?? I tried to explain about working types etc but they just didnt get it. Its twats like that who nearly killed this breed but theres no point in trying to explain that to them as they just dont get it. i had some body come up to me the other day and say "ive never seen a black beddy before" and to tell you the truth until about 2 years ago when i started hunting with dogs. had the beddy because it was somthing different you dont see many about especially the working lines 90% of the ones ive seen have been white,wooly and skinny. why change a breed so much. i can see no point Cheers mick Quote Link to post

She's my only dog that I have at the moment workwise, (terrier work) I have Eva the lurcher and Tag the pup... Barney is my Brothers I just pick him up when I go out... Milly gets lots of photo's taken coz she's alway with me, the lurcher doesn't come out with hounds... And aye she's not a bad little bitch Quote Link to post

david2363 42 Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 Bedlington fanciers may be interested in these pics of my pup Spike - 14 weeks old, obviously working him is a long way off but he is shaping up well - uses his nose well and takes no shit even at this age. Time will tell! Quote Link to post
Guest oscar Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 cracking wee pup fella,who bred the little terror,ive got room in my kennels for a beddie of that stamp,all the best with him Quote Link to post
david2363 42 Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 Just been out for a stroll with the pup - round the outskirts of the local landfill. The little fella was taking in the sights (and the smells ) with great interest. To be honest I didnt want to flush any rats out for him as he's way too young yet but he marked a piece of corrugated iron in the grass next to the track - tail going, and getting very excited - so I flipped it over and about half a dozen mice scattered in all directions. T o cut a long story short, the pup shot after the only one which tried to run across the track and I thought he'd lost it in the grass on the other side until I heard a squeeeeek! So there you go - first kill at 16 weeks old. I know its only a mouse but you've got to start somewhere. Quote Link to post
swanseajack 227 Posted October 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 let's hope he progresses to bigger and better things... Nice pup Dave ... Quote Link to post
