I've picked him up 4 months old very shy and scared at moment think he may of been mistreat by the other dogs as hes wary round other dogs, starting to come to me now but it will be a long road hope he makes the grade

I used to work a Beddy X black n tan alot of years ago, he was a great dog but abit hard, would push through any cover but his main job was trying to keep up with my hare dog lol, caught a few that the big un turned in his direction, he worked for nearly 13 years.

My diging mate had 1 some years back,brilliant dog in cover and also a good dog below ground,was hunted with a mixed pack of harrier hounds belonging to his uncle and in heavy cover he was very good,many the time when hounds would run a fox to ground he would be right with them and have him bolted in no time.

Ye they look like they work cover well and fast too, I had a good jack Russell could get in some thick cover but not as fast as the bedlingtons.

Lads not being snide but I can't see the point what are you hoping to improve with the cross that the individual straight Beddy or a fell can't do ?

Easy Marshman,breed the best grafter to grafter to obtain the youngster that will best suit the individual hunting lifestyle,in my case i wanted a litter out of my Fell bitch,i know of several dogs that would have been useful to cover her with,the dog best suited to my hunting requirements was a Beddy,thus the Beddy/Fell combo.

fair play and what did you require that the Beddy brought to the mix ?

[morton 5,368]

The versatility of the Bedlington is its main attribute,the best bushing/bolting dog ive seen at work was a Bedlington,Fell/Lakey,s are a useful mutt,they lack the athleticism of the Beddy and its more laid back nature,at times.The Bedlington infusion makes for a more versatile terrier,i run Bedlingtons and Fells as a pack,each as its merits over the other,the combination of both taps into the desirable traits in each.Ive a couple of dogs here Beddy/Fells,at 11 months old they are looking more promising than anything ive had before,the coming season will push them towards their potential,hopefully.
