He's only had a handfull of easy digs last season but should see a bit more action in the coming months. He needs to settle down a bit as he's a tad too hard for his own good.

birchdown what weight is that dog in the picture,these oxcroft borders all look very frail to me and not strong enough to hold there own ,on the digs you had with him had he killed the fox when you got to him.

So we have found out other people have this Riley dog in their dog's blood but..............was he a worker or a shirker?

 

As for killing their quarry..........if they can get the right hold most dogs are capable of ending it

 

It's not the size of the dog in the fight but the size of the fight in the dog

My Borders are not from this line
