Guest grubygrafter Posted November 18, 2005 Report Share Posted November 18, 2005 i like a good bayer but i like it to be bred off a hard dog. so you need the hard dogs. to breed good baying terriers. the problem is that most people bumping there gums about there harddogs forget to mention that there dogs are to big and are built like fridges  you dont need a spade to dig them out . you nead it to get them in. the best dog to get the job done is a determined SMALL terrier with the sense to take as little damage as possible. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> plenty of hard dogs out there that will get in most spots. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> :search: yep plenty small hard dogs :whistle: Quote Link to post

celt 1 Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 25 is a good weight for a male terrier, most of the lakies I have worked are around that weight,, I have a 22lb at my feet and I think he is a little small. Celt Quote Link to post

Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted November 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 there are plenty of hard,small dogs about,what sorts these into another category is whether or not the smaller dogs get pushed about at all.Just because a dog likes to mix it ,latch on, dosnt mean it can keep the quarry in a stop end to be dug,especially if the quarry has seen a dog before.A bit of weight behind any dog does no harm,PROVIDING THE DOG WANTS TO BE THERE.The baying dogs O.K in my books but they need to bay right up to it and be prepared to mix it on the break through.Dogs that stand off abit are the ones that are prepared to back up when rushed and at worst let quarry pass them.Dogs that become hard through work are more likely to stay hard as opposed to young dogs flying in and getting smashed up,these Ive found to become the stand off merchants.Better to progress slowly gaining confidence and pick up a few moves,holds on the way Quote Link to post
