DogFox123 1,379 Posted September 1, 2016 Report Share Posted September 1, 2016 A glen is as far as I'm aware a strong dog/ heavy dog bred for trialling or what happens at the end of a dig that's if there are still lads out there breeding for there intended work which I whole heartedly wish there are as opposed to going to ground like a patterdale (if there is such a thing ) does. A good Patterdale is sufficient for the end of the dig. Quote Link to post

neil cooney 10,416 Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 True Liam, not in this day and age but it is nice to look back on the times when there'd be 3 or 4 heavy dogs pegged along the hedge while the digging took place. Thinking back, my God, they were a pain in the ass walking from hole to hole . 4 Quote Link to post
eastcoast 4,154 Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 An ad in TCW 03/08/16 for Glenn of Imaal Terrier pups. KC registered. Dumfies. Wheaton AND brindle. Not my place to give the number but I'm sure you can find it with information given. The person must own or know of a stud dog. Quote Link to post
