Stormer 23 Posted December 16, 2023 Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 It's a long shot but if you don't try you'll never know. Looking to get in contact or get pointed in the right direction with someone who keeps and works Border Terriers and is willing to help, I know there are only a handfull but it's worth a try I guess. Used to own and work black terriers and always had a soft spot for borders and seen a few work back in the days and they were always spot on and though as nails. Looking for a border pup from working lines, I'm not in a hurry as I'm a patient man and I'm willing to travel as I'm not from the UK. Any help would be much appreciated. Quote Link to post
DIDO.1 22,093 Posted December 16, 2023 Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 Gnipper on here has borders, don't know if he's having anymore litters. We have a bitch off him, need to decide this year if we are breeding from her.... keep changing our mind. If we don't this year we will get her done 1 Quote Link to post

Chevy Chase 71 Posted December 16, 2023 Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 If you’re not from the UK try hunting dogs of Europe give him a Google and you should find his website I know he’s advertising a dog and a bitch at the minute that have passed working tests in Europe, they won’t be cheap but might be an option for you 1 Quote Link to post

Daniel cain 44,410 Posted December 17, 2023 Report Share Posted December 17, 2023 A lad called @lurchers on here may be able to point you in the right direction... I've always liked the borders,but they are hard to come by these days, mainly because of the money thats involved...I would take one from a non kc registered litter,over one with some European working cert....know a few lads from here and Germany/finland who have had their pants pulled down,buying in said dogs... 4 Quote Link to post
