Game bred ebt ,any out there?


Recommended Posts

I like dogs , 

I can see the appeal of most breeds, whether it be the typical terrier and lurcher types lads on here keep , working gundogs , hounds even a well kept pet on the street , 

but ive never ever seen an English bull where I’ve thought ,” I’d have you”

Never seen the appeal or the niceness of owning a fat overgrown gassy mini Dalmatian

Game bred English bull terrier is like saying a game bred poodle , there’s plenty out there wich will start a fight with dogs in the street but game breed means bred game for a box and I can’t name on

I always fancied one mostly because I liked the look of the pig headed brutes. So a pup came up from a lad who works his and I thought I’d take the chance and see how it goes. So far he’s a year old a

What possible qualities could an experienced terrier man find in one of those egg headed monstrosities that he wouldnt find in a Pit Bull ?.....in what way does your average Ebt out perform your avera

I think Hinks really fell on his arse with these dogs,as said a lot kill their pups,they are jealous and man biters.If you have one dog as a guard and pet maybe but they are way less stable than most staffs and pitbulls with anything.

I don't think it would be fair to associate the  faults of today's dogs, with what Hinks created over a hundred and fifty years ago. And I'm not just saying that because he's a fellow Westmeath man ?

Agreed mate, i once owned one. A family pet that I, as a keen kid, used for anything and everything.

Would i get one as a working dog though... Not on your nelly...!

The show bench and nothing more..!!

Hinks was a dog dealer, who 'created' them to look the part and sell...

      Alright lads, posting this here to see if anyone has taken a few steps back with a terrier and built things up again.
      what it is, I had dug to my youngest twice at the tail end of last season and he did well for his first digs also had a Reynard on top walking country. They were simple straight forward earths, and he stayed on baying until we were through to him and the Charlie - I was landed, nice to have a steady Bayer in the kennels. 
      I started quite late this season due to work but this week I took him back out to a known spot for his first time out this year.
       I don't 'hiss' or 'hype' my terriers on, allow them to come on in at their own pace into the earth. He shot into this earth, after some searching I heard a few thumps and a whack followed by a few bleeps of baying. Eventually he was a meter away from the point of impact and I could make out his arse from the entrance. Very disorientated and reluctant to push forward I sat and watched on as he'd resurface look for me and head back in to bay 0.5 meter in from the earth entrance. And though some may say I did the wrong thing I pulled him out, though he was keen to go back in - I had a gut feeling.  Slight nick on the ear but no more or near the previous digs/encounters gave him. 
       For his age 3 YO, I've always said in comparison to his siblings he was slightly immature, almost hung onto his puppyish behaviour so progress had always been slow. I'm all for giving opportunities for a terrier to prove their worth but equally don't want a kennel full of half hearted dogs. 
      I'd be interested to see what the more seasoned terrier men thought about the matter? Difficult to say what's what especially with dogs that have little digs under their belt, I have a few assumptions to why this may of happened in my head but thought I'd run it past you lot first, especially before making any hasty decisions. 
      Thank you for reading 👍

      Hello lads, merry Christmas and all that. I’ve got a terrier in my kennels that starting to test my patience. 
       
      Great dog, keen as mustard and all that but time and time again I’ve broken through to her steadily baying away only to find she’s sat with something mid tube on one occasion I broke though and there was nothing there however last week I said to myself if I break through I’ll clear the tubes up and pop her back in to make sure it isn’t my fault rather than blame her. Lo and behold it was sat about a meter back from the open end of the tube and eventually bolted itself - Happy says, a nice morning out (I only dig on my own and keep it private).
       
      However today we popped over to seasoned place, in she went, which was an incredibly large earth with multiple holes spanning across a bracken bank. Straight away she sat at 2.4 baying away well, too many entrances to net I kept an eye out for the bolt but nothing was to be seen. For the next hour maybe two she barley surfaced and worked the entire earth sitting and baying on occasion but shortly moving on and covering a great distance. Eventually on one occasion when she popped out, nose down looking for the next way in I picked her up and sat her back in the truck as I didn’t want to be sat there for another hour trying to get a mark. 
       
      my question is simple, what am I doing wrong? Or is the bitch at fault for not working her quarry to a stop end and staying. She isn’t massively experienced however for what’s she’s done I’ve found she’s intelligent and very safe often comes away without a mark. Please don’t recommend PTS or moving her on, I understand many terriermen wouldn’t tolerate this however for the times I have dug to her successfully it has been a great pleasure. I’ve had a conversation with a lad local to me and his response was “she’s not hard enough to hold them” which made me think one man’s preference may not be another’s. 
       
      all the best & happy new year

      Morning lads,
      so I’ve always had black fell terriers and work them to ground. But for a few years I’ve noticed people starting work slightly broken coated very short coupled terriers that are little savages. I never really get a clear answer to what’s in them but I really like the look of them.
       
      one chap told me he’d crossed his Sealyham with a Russel and it turned out a good little worker. Just wondering if anyone else has had any experience with this breeding specifically for earth work? 
       
      thanks
