Does anybody work single handed russells, dogs that stay in deep places, dig on in awkward spots and find in big sets, i ask because i think the honest white dogs are like hens teeth, and a line of this type even harder to find, i am not saying they dont exist but as i say not all to common.

Thanks for your replys, those of you who thought i was knocking white dogs i have white dogs myself, those who think there all good im sorry but youve been very fortunate in the dogs you own or the ones youve seen work or is it we have different standerds, what i was getting at is anyone breeding a consistant line of white dogs that fit the criteria i wrote in the original post? I dug a good strong dog fox today with a nice white dog three foot deep , didnt put a foot wrong but i no from past times hes not to hot in big places where he has to dig on and stay for a long time,.

Hopefully this little fellow will come good next season. He's bred from hunt working stock.

I had a decent little russell dog, he was roughly 12lb in weight . He was bred by Mal Thomas in Wales. Bit on the small side for my liking but a game little b*@tard. He used to beat up a fair few of his foxes when he first started. I sent him up to a keeper in the Borders cos my black dog was fighting with him & neither would give in. The black dog was turning into the best terrier I've ever had so I was forced to part with the russell. Would have another of his calibre though.

Was only asking you the breeding, not having a go at you. But.. you said in earlier post you've never had a bad russell, well you've only had 2 & you say they're good so I suppose you've been lucky. The patts & lakeys had, what happened to them? Did you get rid of them for some reason or did they not suit you? Why did you change to the whites?
