IMO I would say to anyone who dosnt have the foresight,long term plan ,to stay away from lines as enough have been bastardised by those with only the here and now in mind .Buy a worker ,hopefully it will work then get it neutered .

Cheers Mosby, its all trial and error, i've bred good terriers together got very low % workers spent years rearing terriers which have failed at the job, but the ones you get that you could take any w

Source the genuine blokes,they will have the genuine dogs,and if they don't they wont try and pass them off as such

Very cincal Glyn but sadly true .There are those that have the real deal but all too often as soon as it gets away from them its on a downward spiral .This to me is the sole reason why in some areas t

Yeah I get that. Thing is, how many keep a kennel of line bred fully 'tested' terriers they know the full genealogy of, I mean many years of, to be able to reproduce what they have consistently? Thats what a line is-anything else is scatter breeding!

You've just answered your own question .Anyone can do it ,all you need is good root stock and the strict stockman ship of test and cull .You ask how many have this in kennel ,mate there's loads about but do your homework first before committing .Self restraint when considering breeding mate .In the early years you need to study what's worked for other people then you will realise what works for you .Scatter breeding due to ignorance is no longer an exceptable excuse with the in and outs of line breeding plastered all over here .

Hopefully someone will put up their own line plan soon .

this is what worked for me ..R was a bitch N and T1 where related ...D was related but a bit rather back.T was a double bred grandson of R

from R to TB 30 years , shortest route 4 gens

i'm not putting the dogs names up they end up getting hung on all sorts

Nice. Did the line throw up any physical faults Glyn?

i did have a few and could well have a few yet , i found when they get tight bred i couldn't risk father/daughter , mother son or full brother sister without physical defects, even the healthy ones from such mating's needed outcross ,so no point in breeding them , i like half brother half sister mating although mine will also be cousins as well its a trial and error , i think breeding a type would be easy breeding workers is hard work with a good pinch of luck
