was thinking if we could start a poll to see if there was a greater percentage of workers in a certain breed...so if evreyone thinks the best dog theyv had or a couple of dogs that stood out from the rest and let us know what breed it was or is.just to see if there is anything to sugest theres a slightley better breed..or if you think there is a better breed in your eyes for proper graft let us know.thanks.

patterdale obviously but of unknown lines came to us un enterd along with an enterd dog from the same man he ended up outshining the worker and ernded himself quite a rep for doing the job.

I have a couple of black fell terriers/patterdales (whatever), but i've seen good working borders, lakelands, russels and cross breds. All of them were trusted digging dogs.

If I'd started with say, borders, from good lines, and they worked well, then I would have stuck with them. Just happened to start with black'uns, so as im happy with them, im sticking with them!

as long as they do the job asked of them then surely it dont matter.pink with red spots,but if they do wots asked then there you go.personally i would dye it black though. a worker is a worker whatever colour.
