If people worked them as much as they talked about them on here then there would be some decent one's around.....!

You cant really know that mate if you think about it. You can only really know there are a lot of none workers,but that can be said of lots of breeds from Patterdales to Cocker spaniels.

 

Its a known fact thats why certain people were trying to revive the working border.As a worker its a dying breed.I know a good few people that breed them and they will tell you.There are some very good working borders around but a lot can't pass on their qualities.Its a great shame as they are a cracking type of terrier.

 

Have you seen a Border working Moorman? Who do you know that breeds workers,are they on this forum?
