Genuine Chocolate Patterdale

[taz2010 1,297]

i own 2 chocolate dogs both out of nuttalls copper had the breed a long time but there the same as any other when it comes to work they dont do there job they wont be here and when i did breed them and lads of here who have the pups were charged the same rate as any other terrier no big bucks in choc there worth the price of a working terrier pup and thats it

500e is about 360 pound for a pup from good breeding a possible 7+ years of graft if it was what I wanted and I wasn't in the position to be gifted a pup I wouldent hesitate you will spend more on boots in the time the dogs alive

I overheard a lad talking to another at the show and it seems £450 is the going rate for a show lakey where they come from . (Northern accent)

Good to see a few russel types showing a bit of graft though .

When im judging i ask what dogs done but i know ive been lied to .Im afraid working marks are all you can go on .

I used to love a good terrier and lurcher show when I was a little lad , I can mind looking at the dogs and then looking through the back of the boot of a car or van and seeing pups . I'd say are them pups for sale mister and then run back to my father and say dad can I have a pup . My father would just laugh and say nope ! Then one time my whilst at a show my father walked up to me and put a almost all white jack pup in my hands. My father and I dug to that little bitch for years and she made it to 17 years old , I wish I had her now ! And that's how it started for me at a show , mind you it was a different sort of show compared to today's sort

A long time ago i was privilaged to stand in on a conversation between Frank Buck and Gary Middleton at GT Yorks. I remember they both turned to look at a smooth chocolate dog in the ring and Gary remarking that 'you dont see many that colour'. Frank agreed and said that everyone he'd ever seen had been 'a nailer to work' and Gary agreed...

Was talking to lad yesterday and asked him did he bred anything this year he said his bitch didnt come in season so he rang a lad that had a litter of pups off gud stock he was asked 500 euro for a pup

If they're off good stock how come he and his friends were not keeping them among themselves, or does he charge his friends 500 for a pup?

Maybe the bitch had 20 pups and some were surplus?

[undertaker 831]

NEil she be some terrier to hav 20 pups the surplus pups were sold at 500 each from what I was told.and one more thing the line they come from are some of the best workers in ireland

[Zilverhaze 1,627]

Are you getting one undertaker?

[undertaker 831]

Cant afford one at that price

:-( shame mate something will turn up for you

[baz123 23]

selling pups to any c**t that has 500 notes will soon f**k the line,instead of giving them to decent like minded lads who will test the dogs an not breed of the culls to make there money back. Money has a lot to answer for!!!
