swanseajack 227 Posted January 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 update on the diddy dogs (Bedlington cross hounds)... they've been working well, holding good line and giving tongue like they should.. last weekend saw them having one on top, I though it about time they saw the sharp end and see what they made of it so helped them out, wasn't a clean shot and couldn't get another one into it before they caught up... the dog hound was ragging the carcass whilst the bitch hound was running around making as much noise as her lungs would allow, then something must have clicked in her head, red mist and bang she was in at the sharp end and not letting go for love nor money... Whoop Whoop... Coco the bedlington pup still hadn't clicked and thought it better to latch on to the dog hound's arse... :ranting2: full on riot then ensued between me and Coco.. I think I swore a bit... Anyway that was their first proper introduction into what they've been hunting.. perhaps concentrate their efforts onto the red fellas instead of treeing cats... went out today, just took Tag, and the two diddies.......... Well they picked at a line in a pine forest, then started opening up, with me and Tag in hot pursuit, fecking hard work when you're on your own and not knowing where they are going.. after about ten minutes they were speaking in a big bramble bush, having worked this spot before I knew there was an earth in here, surely it couldn't have gone in.... tried the first couple of easy ones I could get too but nothing, then realised they were more interested in the ones deeper in the cover, yapping around the top of them but no proper mark... dropped Tag in the cleaner of the two holes and away he went.. it wasn't deep so I knew if he started speeaking they would hear him... ten minutes went past ... nothing.. got down on me hands and knees had a listen couldn't exactly hear much, I knew that there were only two holes so I waited a bit longer before getting the knocker box out, I could hear something up to my right in the brambles, the kind of something you don't want to hear if you aint got it covered, then Ben the dog hound was away into the bush and giving it what for... the fecker had bolted out of a third hole about 15ft in, you know the one that you always miss... waaaaaaaaargh!!! and away they went, couldn't go after them, not with a dog to ground, so made my way in to where it had bolted and after a bit out popped Tag.... Got the hounds back after a search, they hadn't marked to ground again, lost him I guess.. Good sport good hunting, if only I had ..... you can write the rest.. Quote Link to post

Any more pics of him, how old was he in the pic, what was his work style like ?? think the dog was about six year at the time of picture ....hard work trying to get him started,in fact allmost put me off bedlingtons. no strike but would chase rabbit hare and fox.....wouldnt go to ground......you starting to get the picture.....either my bad training,or he just didnt have the instinct.....in the end he showed himself marking rabbits for ferrets.....he never got bred from,not my idea of working terrier.

dom mac 0 Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 (edited) I kept Beddilingtons for a number of years in the late 70'sand found them to be excellent dogs, however I was given the opportunity three years ago to go out with a group of lads in the northwest of england who worked them. they had changed considerably over that time . still very game but smaller , slimmer and softer coated. the dogs i had were a more robust. I suppose fashion has changed them a little. I took one a small brown bitch 2 years old who worked well, went to ground at the drop of a hat. I lost her while working, drowned and cold.(i replaced her through this site ..thanks Greengrass and others) I work Pats now Edited January 25, 2009 by dom mac Quote Link to post
