wirral countryman 2,110 Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 Lucky, where it says working cert beside the dogs name on that pedigree, is that a w/cert issued by the MFHA or one from the Plummer folk ?Its been proven in the past that most of the older working certs were false and something Plummer used as part of his "smoke and mirrors" when writing books as credibility, WM Quote Link to post

I've stood next to a few of those judges and heard them before they even got in the ring, as said "sham", you might remember most shows only ever have small numbers in their membership, especially the EPTR, ran by a committee that is all his family members, LOL's the papers mean nowt, WM Quote Link to post
pointer 543 Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 phil fish used a plummer or 2 over the years, amman valley farmers i think, a gun pack not mounted, curtis price had some with a hunt in wales also, but i would say that most wcerts on these ped are bs . Phil Fish is a good huntsman that likes his terriers. For a few years I would spend a couple of weeks a season out with his pack but he didn't have them then. However he had good things to say about the plummers he had kept, they have good numbers of foxes down down so they must have seen some work. Also went out a couple of times with Curtis with another gunpack, that huntsman also liked the plummers he had worked in the past. Both of these huntsman told me they would have kept more if they could have got them. Both still had terriers bred down from those plummers put to other types. The last time I was at Curtis' about eight years ago he had just taken back an old bitch that had worked for a foot pack for several seasons, I think it was called Dell and was nine years old. I remember thinking what a shame such dogs weren't being bred from. 4 Quote Link to post
stormyboy 1,352 Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 Phil and the Ammanford had a some cracking Plummers there, I'm surprised they didn't keep them going? I put 2 with them for a season, Vandal was a bit too hard on his quarry,so Phil refused a working cert! Still better that than a jibber. 4 Quote Link to post

I've been out with other fell hound packs around the country that don't like there foxes getting knocked about either so it's not just him lol. Quote Link to post
