Anyone Have A Soft Spot For A Breed Other Than The Ones U Own??

[Keepbordersworking 103]

Got a border youngster at the moment but its got to be Black&tan or black rough coated fell type dogs for me and I'm sure there will be one in my kennels sooner rather than later.

P.S. The next b&t or black pup that comes to my kennels will have big boots to fill because the last black one I had here had everything I want in a working terrier the right size coat and earned his dinner every time we were out I retired him age ten sadly long gone now.

Border for me, I can't see me ever taking the plunge but I've always likes them from a far.

I started with Russells and I wouldn't write them off ever coming back to my yard, I gave a very tidy bitch best in show last year in Wales, she was everything I'd like in a russell and it killed me not to try and tap it of the owner.

A Scottie or even a westie

 

They're actually both well put together animals

Jagd terrier for me smooth jacket

I would probably say a Cairn would be the best of that type.

As kids we used to 'borrow' my mates mums Westie to go ratting, as well as his Nans two Yorkies.

In fact back then, any mutt that showed half an interest in either hunting or killing was 'borrowed' for a bit of fun...

My old hunting buddy had a border russell bitch got her off a guy at a fishery he used her for mink but she kept nailing the ducks etc. First sett he walked to she went straight in never looked back sadly got killed in a drain I never had the pleasure of seeing her pitty he rated her highly. Pitty the borders are used more an more for cash as no doubt the right kind could still produce similar when out crossed

These days perhaps jagd terriers.......I even drove a 1200 mile round trip to sweden last year to look at the parents of a prospective litter for this year, but in the mean time I'd been gifted a fell bitch....so ended up being more of a trip for future reference.....

.....mind, going by the bitches shaky performance this season, maybe I should of took the plunge lol
