francolin 449 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 It can often be a no win situation. You give some lads your pride and joy for nothing and they'll never have the same admiration as you've had for the breeding. Then if you try to put a value to the pup by charging for it and it doesn't work out (and this can happen ANY body) they'll often sell the terrier to get their money back. It goes to it's next home and so on. Then there's the lad who's 100% reliable and keeps to his word but hasn't a clue how to enter a terrier and ruins it. You get word back then that it's no good. It's much harder than folk realise to place pups in good reliable homes and then get good honest input back of how your terrier worked out. spot on neil,and its a struggle to get a terrier back if you end up without for any reason,this gifting terriers should work both ways. 1 Quote Link to post

Dig-deep-draw-charlie 2,713 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Did u say to him Neil?? Quote Link to post
neil cooney 10,416 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Nothing. I was with Ricky B. and after the lad said it I looked at Ricky and he looked at me. We went to a pub nearby and fell around the place laughing. I also think we got very drunk. I have even funnier memories of that lad. Quote Link to post

THE GENERAL 1,982 Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) If the decent blood wasn't passed on to idiots the terrier job wouldn't be in the state it's in now. I've tried to give out pups to lads I didn't know but all bar a few times I've regretted it, it's a funny old game. My advice to lads wanting better than they've got, do the best with what you have, the lads with decent stuff are always after good lads who'll bring a pup on right and give it a genuine chance.Well said DD, yet even with the best of breeding and proper rearing in the right hands, a fair amount don't make the grade even at that.

leethedog 3,071 Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) This . The grade does it not differ from person to person surely some have a higher standard than others me personally I'd be happy with a 2 hour dog Edited to say most places we go to could be dug twice in that time Edited January 23, 2016 by leethedog Quote Link to post
