spindolero 1,111 Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 he looked a big lump of a dog, and some genuine old lads on here saw him go and said he was the real deal. Quote Link to post
pablo esc 1,598 Posted February 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 Fair enough so, it would get boring so, goingon about myths, legends. But just interested in what thehad then , of fellas who knew what. The dogs spoke for themselves, but the didn't talk, good luck with Quote Link to post
rob284 1,682 Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 Its reminds me of another well known dog that didnt perform on many occasions Quote Link to post
Zilverhaze 1,627 Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 me also intrested pablo but only in the truth .. i dont for one miniute belive he killed evry badger he was dug to.. and i dont see why anyone whuld be digging a dog as big as that regular to fox pre ban... then thers the holding back of his breeding by mr gould witch was said to be a cleaver marketing trick by his best mate stig.... sounds like ther was a load of old bollox surrounding the dog to be honest ... how big was he 17" a dog what learns to kil a fox early can do it reguarly with no stick regardless of size its a nack what can be learned..... am sorry but the legend smiffy dont suck me in dont care how he was bread and dont care for the glory storys surrounding him my opinion is he was only a dog a big hard dog who was marketed a good way by a dog dealer and bread to that many bitches he produced some decent dogs who got in the hands of good lads that made the most of them 2 Quote Link to post

fat man 4,741 Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 I cant remember Ken claiming smithy killed every badger he seen, it was said he killed every fox he could get to Lol,it would be some terrier that could finish every Badger it was put to pre-ban and anyone that would even think that knows f**k all about diging.

undertaker 831 Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 If he was that good of a dog how come no one knows the true breeding of him he must have been some terrier that could kill brock Quote Link to post
timmy k 590 Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 I remember reading an article by Colin Didrikson or whatever his name is and he said he only dug to one dead and couldn't garentee that smithy killed it, make of that what you will. 1 Quote Link to post
fat man 4,741 Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 I have heard a few lads say pre-ban that there terrier finished badger to ground,but imho in reality i reckon that 99% of this happening is due to the animal smothering due to pushing up so tight it blocks of itself for air and is then dug to but dead where then the owner and his terrier take the credit,it probably did happen on occasion but never consistently. 5 Quote Link to post
Zerky 133 Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 If anyone or any animal is held around the wind pipe they are going to die!! Quote Link to post
Taggy123 59 Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 Its the fact that the dog passed around that gets me. Ive got dogs that by the sound of it arent a patch on smithy. Yet i wouldnt let them go anywhere for all the tea in china. 1 Quote Link to post
