nuv 2 Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 (edited) gonna be getting meself a border in the near future and was wanderin weather there were any lines that stood out from the rest? only ever gonna be doing ratting but would like a fine example of the breed. love to see any pics of yours if you keep em, cheers that tyson dog in the country mans look nice,but i wouldent want one out of him for work. my mate had four young ones out of him,nice lookers but thats where it ends. they were tried on rat and rabbit when young,and fox as they got older but no good at all. any way my mate died. and i owed it to himto try the dogs had them for six months or more and tryed them week in week out but still no good. a nice dog that tyson but you would think youd get one worker out of four wouldent you. In replie tyson and the rest of that guys borders son and daughters definatley all work no question ! Have had litters sired by tyson all gone to working homes several have gone to members from this site and again making workers regards smiler I spoke to the guy who owns Tyson at the Midland and he didn't seem to have the first clue about terrier work.

Guest SJM Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 Nuv is that a pic of Tyson in your post or is that one of your dogs? Lets face it, true working borders are few and far between. I would say the vast majority of people who own them have them as ratting/rabbiting/bushing dogs, pets, show dogs or money makers, or even a bit of all the above rolled into one if they are honest Quote Link to post

That's my stud dog, Taff; I'm truly humbled that he could even be mentioned in the same breath as Tyson. He's nine year old and still going strong. I'm not breeding for a while but Tuffty has had a bitch I bred and he's pleased with her. She's with a hunt pack at the moment. She went to him for free, KC registered. My interest is in the breed.

Guest SJM Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 I think perhaps youve taken my question the wrong way? Your post was about Tyson, then underneath your post there is a pic of a border terrier. I asked if it was one of yours or a pic of Tyson because youd been talking about the dog and it was unclear to me which dog was in the pic, nothing more or less. If you had said in your post "this is a pic of my stud dog taffy" I wouldnt have needed to ask. Hope that clears up any confusion Quote Link to post
marko 30 Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 i have a bitch she is oxcroft she is coming along fine works the cover and doing ok on the ratting she is 13 mths old,what you have to take into account is that borders take a quite a bit longer to come on than say patterdale terriers and you need a lot of patience but great characters.

The post was actually about Tyson's owner, of whom I said seemed clueless. Not sure how he vets the bitches his extremely good looking dog covers, but the ad in CW seems to be geared toward show owners. Much of what I read about Borders is recycled Plummeresque myth, but then, Plummer ripped off the experience of others to pass off as his own; maybe the regulation 'notoriously slow to enter' phrase, proffered whenever Borders are mentioned, was somebody else's. A bitch from my last litter. Edited January 23, 2008 by nuv Quote Link to post
