davinci 6 Posted July 12, 2014 Report Share Posted July 12, 2014 Just picked up a border bitch - working lines. I can see a double up of 'Badger Bill of Durham' in her breeding and double of Fern Rock Vixen and a few glenbucket lines. Any knowledge of these lines? I used to have borders years back - and had silver gem /misty blue line then. Quote Link to post

jeemes 4,457 Posted July 13, 2014 Report Share Posted July 13, 2014 great little dogs the Borders, do the parents work? Quote Link to post
davinci 6 Posted July 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Yes they were -long line of workers. I may have one litter at some point in future - with preference to a MFH cert sire. They would be interesting sorts I would guess. Have 3 people expressing an interest if MFH cert was used already - but MFH cet not cheap at stud and with KC reg would add to price of any future pups.

davinci 6 Posted July 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 What neck of the woods you from Jeemes? Have you any border terriers? Quote Link to post

Or have I misinterpreted your post ? 4 Quote Link to post
lurchers 2,763 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 It seems that way to me to,i charged the same price stud with my borders wheather kc or not.it didnt make the pups work any different. Quote Link to post

davinci 6 Posted July 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 lol - I don't have a stud - I have a bitch -if I have a litter to keep a pup on -I will look at a working border stud dog -as I want to work any pups.. Point making was KC registration and a MFH cert sire increase costs. Some like KC reg -some not bothered -up to individuals-I like working lines that are KC reg also. Quote Link to post
jossa 966 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Not familiar with those lines. Did you get it from up this way (north east) Quote Link to post

neil cooney 10,416 Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 True, but at least it helps a bit to solve the puzzle as to why the border is struggling as a proper working type. Money men and dreamers, the ruination of any worker. 5 Quote Link to post
