My young bitch is a tad reluctant to the stingers still.. chocolate dog nearly 3 1/2 year old now the other one about 15 months,the nettles dont seem bother them but i try not to knock the bollox out of nettle infested areas throughout the summer although some places hard to keep clear of them. 3 Quote Link to post

krawnden 1,036 Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 D'you see much difference between them in the way they work? Or would you say they're very similar? Quote Link to post

Cheers. only full spaniels i see working was as a kid,my old man was in gun club although we had labs but lots spaniels on the shoot but they were obviously trained gun dogs,something i doubt i could achieve,bit terrier steady them up certainly enough for me to be able to handle them,they take direction well and do listen,throw in a excellent coat as well,cant get down to the skin on mine if you part the coat,iv heard lads say they had full spaniels drop in even been dug to on occasions but i reckon that bit terrier certainly gives them fire iv seen mine go in on stuff with no thoughts of self preservation what so ever. mine have been trained not to drop in a hole,harsh word in the ear as youngsters and they get it lol Quote Link to post
