The lad was never saying that his intension is to breed 100% working Bedlington Terries. And sell them. As far as I can tell he just has a Bedlington bitch that is fit for his purpose and regards the animal as worth breeding from. For his purpose. The problem comes from people who lie about what they have done. what their terriers have done, and then try to pass them off as something that they are not. And then sell them. 7 3 Quote Link to post

Yup he,s going to breed a shithawk litter to further the cause of the working bedlington and not sell the surplus shithawk dross,then a few months down the line the owners of these shithawk dross will not line them,spin a few yarns about their working prowess and advertise another litter of dross masquerading as WORKING Bedlingtons,i admire your naievety.

rob284 1,682 Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 The mother has a beddy terrier that’s a pet, full of drive, very strong and in need of work. Will try and kill my terriers and is screaming to go when taken to a live earth, off it’s head. Would love to take it out, sods law, bring on a few we’ll bred dogs that won’t even travel and then this pet dog looks more promising than ever. Quote Link to post
Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 Do you go out purposely to get a dog to ground Mort or is it just a case of its I found so lets see what happens .Big difference from a dog bred to dig week in week out than an occasional warrier full of itself. I agree about your breeding strategy but if it' not backed up with regular work you are achieving nothing. The draw back with the beddy is it's size in getting places in earth from what I've seen and benefit from a progam to reduce size and length ie outcrossing . Quote Link to post

I know a lad who as a Bedlington at stud mate, it's Midlands though. Dog is out of Terry oherns stuff, you won't find better and it's pure bedlington not been x to pat etc, if I was looking for a stud I would travel to use him. The lad who owns him is a gentleman and a honest field man. Pm me your number and I'll pass it on,, atb Quote Link to post

I was also told yesterday that lamping rabbits as been banned for last ten years. And it was the lad who is now in charge of one of the farms I work who said it to me, for years I have lamped, done ferreting ratting and took some good bags and had some great days on this land but I can see this ending now he's taking over from the old couple who owns it, I asked him if he had done much farm work, no not a day until I got with my new girl friend who's the owners granddaughter. He's a nice anufe lad but he should stick to being a fire man. Quote Link to post
