Popular Post neil cooney 10,416 Posted September 6, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 Why do we put ourselves through hell by keeping the little b*****ds ? My daughters away working with horses and has left me minding her bitch , Tanner, with instructions not to dig to her. Tanner needs work so I had a couple of handy ones to her the weekend just to take the edge of her. This morning as I was feeding the fowl she caught a rat and ran around every pen frightening the shit out of every bird with the rat in her mouth. Then I drove to a farm to check a larsen trap with Tanner sitting in the back on top of the terrier box looking out the front window. 2 in the trap and I threw them into the footwell on the passenger side and then spent 20 minutes talking to the farmer. As I opened the door to get back in Tanner jumped out and attacked the farmers Jack Russell. After separating them I opened the back and put her back into the back of the van. Then I looked in the front. Bits of magpies and feathers everywhere. To be fair, it wasn't tidy in the first place but sitting on magpie guts is not even my cuppa tea. Said goodbye to the farmer and off up the backroad and as I'm driving along Tanner again escaped out of the back, landed on me and I promptly drove of the road in on top of a new lawn. Luckily they hadn't put up a fence yet. Tanner is over 9 years of age !!!!!!!!! 20 Quote Link to post

Pirate 9000 676 Posted September 6, 2017 Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 They can be a nightmare to live with at times, but I've always found a real naughty terrier will be the one that takes to work with a passion. 1 Quote Link to post

Pembshunter 23 Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 I've always found my better workers to be calm, relaxed and easier going...any that were a little to lively, fought with dogs and were a constant nuisance never amounted to much...for me anyway. Quote Link to post

forest of dean redneck 11,536 Posted September 8, 2017 Report Share Posted September 8, 2017 I had a Russell bitch, dug out the sofa of a girlfriend, lots of tears. Sister had a fox terrier used to Muller anything, final straw for her was when he shredded a hedgehog in her bed, fleas and guts everywhere. I had a sealyhamrussel type was doing a bit of keepering as a lad, thing was bomb proof around stock, walked up grouse day, decided to run sheep up and down the line of guns, I could've plugged him that day My current terrier/cocker, best little dog I've had but was proudly doing laps of garden with neighbors cat, whilst neighbour was hanging on the fence watching, I'd only gone in to get a drink after a two hour walk. They'll give you some of the best and worse times.lol Atb Joe Can I borrow the terrier x cocker ,plenty of cats here lol Quote Link to post
