Moorman 1 1,417 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Its funny how these old rescues of fell terriers are always two or three in there each time.Like the old song of Butcher & Badger etc.Everyone goes on about the good old lines and how they were better than whats about these days they were nearly always doubled up when put to ground. 1 Quote Link to post

The fella,s about then had a better working understanding of the places they entered a dog,or two,even 3 at times.Theirs was a tried and tested formula that few would undertake now,how many would even enter a terrier now in some of the places the old lads saw as commonplace?.

The fella,s about then had a better working understanding of the places they entered a dog,or two,even 3 at times.Theirs was a tried and tested formula that few would undertake now,how many would even enter a terrier now in some of the places the old lads saw as commonplac Don't see how you can say they had a better understanding of the places,if you work an area regularly then you know the spots as well as any.If anyone were to put two or three to ground today they would be told their dogs weren't upto the job. When I was a young lad most people used to work a few to ground it was commonplace back in the day.I believe the standards have improved as have the terriers.I have heard and read of many accounts where old so and so couldn't shift the fox so another then another were entered.Thats how it was in the lakes many moons ago.

Moorman 1 1,417 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Forgot to say that its a cracking clip of the rescue,as someone already said I'll bet his ears were ringing,lol. Quote Link to post
Ripstop 89 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Got to remember these are rock piles and rocks, not earths. Did the terriers no work as part of a team when put in to bolt or kill? Like they say a rock dog is different kettle of fish to an earth dog. not saying one is inferior to the other, just that different dogs for different jobs. Nice bit of film, anymore about?
