dillydog 8,514 Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 What proof is there that EVERY Patterdale has bull in the mix ? I've personally owned two Lakeland x bulls, stone mad and as much use as tits on a fish. 2 Quote Link to post
Apache... 2,588 Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 I bred a brindle pup out of two blacks a good while back and I know for sure the grandmother of the pup had bull in it, don't know how it turned out. Quote Link to post

stop.end 4,082 Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Patterdale? Lol . imo is just like any good line/type..may that be black white chocs or even a different variation..not really a breed per say . because lets be honest they will be when looked back far enough a mix of a lot of things from a long time ago.. if it's a well established line they will be breeding to type as in first and foremost work, then after a while they all start looking like peas in a pod if done correctly... for example if 30 years ago you were into terriers and you were at a show you could tell a gould terrier..not a diluted orange juice that the masses were producing back then forget about the rose tinted glasses its the same in 2019 as it was in 1999 ...but real stuff from kens yard.. you could tell.. same as nuttalls.. but to be honest in NI in them days me personally didn't dig or hear much of nuttalls.. until later. long story short...if you know the history of the proper line from the genuine stuff... you could be at a dog show lets say.. a fella walks past who you don't know from adam he has a terrier just by looks and confirmation 9/10 you could stop him and say nice terrier it looks like a such and such and it ends up he mixes in the same sort of circle but maybe will be the other end of the country or different country. , and in the end up it will be a brother sister cousin or same lines but with different men going in different directions but still keeping it close.... meaning same genetics just it seems in the right circles its a need to know basis with folks I know...no flapping gums about folk.. unless you need to know... As for bull in ALL patterdales as you call them dilly... the ones I know that are doing the work well to a standard consistently every time and reproducing the same...have bull in them... but haven't had an actual bull in the line since the first initial x back at the big bang theory lol... 2 Quote Link to post
Rabbit Hunter 6,613 Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 I’d imagine it’s easy to look back and say Gould had a type back then, but surely the older men of that era would have looked at Gould’s dogs and said ‘can see the Stacey and Cowan (for example) stuff in them’.I don’t think a type or style of terrier is appreciated until a couple of decades have passed and you see it all come together further down the line. 3 Quote Link to post

Ok.. but my post in a cryptic way was saying more like... the men that myself and you mentioned, we're breeding terriers more than working them...they were NOT testing them their selves. lets be honest and selling them.. so decades later good men now a days you couldn't buy a terrier from them... so if you can't buy.. and your walking past a clone of your own terriers at a show...?? 1 Quote Link to post
