Lakeland terrier

[young1982 1]

I want to get a lakeland next year but other than looking in the countrymans weekly i'm not sure where to start, what names should I be looking for in the world of lakeland terriers? I don't mind travelling so thats not a issue as long as I get a good dog at the end of it.

 

Cheers

Where would you suggest I start looking then?

 

You would think if someone is known for breeding good WORKING dogs then you stand a good chance of getting something worthwhile from them. At the moment I’m uneducated in what to look for in a Lakeland, if I went to look at a litter I wouldn’t have a clue what dog to pick.

 

What should I be looking for?

[Guest tawny]

if i was you mate have a look around your local area.there are boys near you i would think that dont go to shows,but work they dogs week i week out.ok the dogs they kennel may be right ugley fucks, but who cares,as long as they work ?

Was involved in a discussion relating to terriers that fight - can they graft. His mate Digzy said how good calvins dog was (his strain). Then I read another post asking how he should enter his pup from this strain. Thought calvin must've had a lot of experience but he bought the start of this strain as an adult dog. Confusing?

mate do your own leg work . get on the net , get round the shows , get out and have a good look round , do your own reserch , try and get a picture in mind of what your looking for . keep your eye on the cmw for pups see the parents . . most threads started on here like yours turn into slaggin dogs off

Stay away from shows, thats the last place you want to look for a terrier. I personally don't visit shows much, but on the occasion I do I wouldn't take my dogs. The countrymans weekly seems to be the place for breeders selling their wares at extortionate prices aswell. You really want to see the parents work but I guarantee you nobody would be stupid enough to take a stranger out that has responded to an add. Well bred terrier pups rarely need to be advertised

maybe join the famwtc, go to the meetings and ask if they could point you in the right direction, or try a working terrier club near you, stay away from £500 super dogs in the cmw a peddlers paradise
