whin 463 Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 how do you find these heavy dogs feet wise on roughish land do they hold up or are they ometimes abit lame if out a lot and running alot Quote Link to post
dogs-n-natives 1,182 Posted February 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 Aye there have been times when his feet and lower legs have become cut and scraped. Mainly when frosty or on very rocky or stoney ground. They have needed some attention quite a few times, but never to the extent where he has become lame. Touch wood. I havnt had much experience with other breeds or crosses, but I would guess that the lighter crosses perhaps wouldnt get their feet so badly knocked up. Quote Link to post

A lot of work with the terriers. And plenty of daytime hunting. He has his faults- He's not soft mouthed! But the edible game he catches is useable and never mauled. And he dosent retrieve, so when he's well away from us with a catch, ill have to find him. Quote Link to post
