stop.end 4,081 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 most imprtant...terrier who will do earth work and only knows earth work... and know at least someone with the same knowledge . all the rest will fall into place... (i.e) if hes willing to stay... with todays technology you will get him out... phones every 1 has 1... car same person will have 1 probably...( although in todays economic climate who knows) tools? well if you have an interest in terriers you should have them anyway... mates? always handy.. if none of the abov then why put your TERRIER at risk by starting terrier work at all if you have researched it... well im stumped!!

Irish Lurcher 1,013 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Great thread Danny, some nice in-put from the lads, what I would like to know is when ye were heading out on a dig, did anyone ever forget the locator, and if so how did ye cope with finding the dog. I bet nobody will admit to this , just on a different note I recall driving to Cavan one morning only to discover we had left the pike bait behind, so it does happen in all our outdoor work, honestly what would ye do if the drive home was two hours to get the locator, I am sure the men back in the day had their own way of finding the dog without locators...
