buster gonads 862 Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 I can't see what poodle would add that a beddy hasn't already got. A love of water, but so would a good Cocker. Quote Link to post

morton 5,368 Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 Thought bedlington already had poodle in them. I would have thought there be plenty of you could rely on to work before going that way . Maybe a pure bedlington , a spaniel ,terrier or hound. The Poodle influence in any decent working Beddy breeding wil be so diluted as to make it no influence at all,the KC brigade added Poodle (still do),a working kennel never would.Ill guarantee pups bred along these lines have dollar as the reason and nothing more.

roybo 2,873 Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 I agree regarding breeding the dollar. To what degree the poodle influence has on a working bedlington I wouldn't know,without seeing the ones that preceded the addition of poodle. It's certainly wasn't with work in mind they added it so maybe the influence is the linty coat so many have? Thought bedlington already had poodle in them.
