pablo esc 1,598 Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 A Beddy that was coward, plain and simple Proves my point,the Beddy was the only terrier getting stuck in,the Lakey went awol,the Russel was an ornament and its only the Beddy that gets the flack.The lads on the shovel were in their comfort zone with 3 terriers like that.ffsake man , I wouldn't watch it or want to . doesn't take a beddy. Russel or nothing for that . only aresholes . but you know what . the other dickheads just same. No matter what the have Quote Link to post

alun1960 234 Posted December 29, 2016 Report Share Posted December 29, 2016 Piper was bred in Glyneath ,was a good dog in the ground but a b*****d for scrapping a good mate got him off Brian H from Cumbria. Went up to Halifax after. Got an old pic somewhere of piper and solo together after a couple of digs. 1 Quote Link to post

Adampie8432 824 Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 I know a good few lads with beddies that work below and and swear by them. the ones I use have only ever been used for rabbit but my liver bitch ive got big confidence that I could use her to ground and if the opportunity came up while out mooching she would be tested. Even tho most of them have had the working strain breed out of them there are still a load out there that do the job well. Atb Adam Quote Link to post
