Latest arrival my border terrier

[massey96 35]

How many are still working pure bred borders? My father always wanted one but only ever had patterdale x border. I was lucky enough to get a pup from some real hard working dogs looking forward to the future with this one

Had a couple of pure borders around us 20 yrs ago...grafted but rough old working style,4/5 digs a season maxbitches were very narrow ,get right up to a fox,and a  bit more sensible ... I know a few who still keep them right

Hunted with some nice Border Terriers, back in the 1990's.

Sometimes found them to be a tad on the sensitive side (same as myself,..they did not enjoy the company of noisy feckers).....but once they were on,..they were on...

Hoping this 1 isn't as tasty as the last 1

Mate of mine had one which used to do a bit of everything including retrieve ducks from ponds. 

Nice looking pup. Cheers. Aled

Hope you have some fun with him, have a young bitch here 19mts working cover very well,she,s getting abit head strong now as her confidence grows. Atb with your pup,

Treat it like a normal terrier mate and she will do you good,as some of them think borders don’t graft till they are 3.Once she’s up on age let her watch a few digs and let her have a rag on the carcass.Then when it is ready you will see it do the job mate.
