squab 2,875 Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 Working dog lads don't appreciate a animal as much as a pet home, treated like tools that can easily be replace or discarded. when I breed my bitch one day they will all be sold to pet homes and what I want kept back for working for myself.ok so my answer to tools that are easily replaced means they keep shit to me, just how I see it not up for a row but 400 notes for a plummer,have a day off lolPlummers lol Couldn't give me one for freenow your talking my language but don't let Plummer gaz hear you say that lol......Plummer gaz can't believe I'm saying it lol You wanna keep that fella close squab.

Plucky1 1,119 Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Anything is a bushing dog these days lol Everyone is trying to re-invent the wheel it seems, I've worked cover (bushing) all my life with terriers of every sort and can not see the attraction in spaniel crosses at all other than lads that mainly shoot, a decent terrier will do everything a spaniel cross can and then some, its not that I don't get out and see them work either as I have and do, still its personal choice I suppose and they do not attract the attention of walkers,hikers etc when out like a terrier does ??

No terrier can work a hard shift like a spaniel x or beagle x while the terriers fade the x's are just getting started. One is as good as a pack of terriers imo. 4 Quote Link to post
