Maybe I need to work on his recall a bit.woo!!!! 20 MINS!! He was about 5 months. I know its not long at all but the fact is he stayed. I haven't been able to pull him off quarry since above or below. This being my first ground dog I've not the experience with my own dogs. I'm just saying for PIP that I of the other dogs I've seen I haven't seen one called out of a hole or leave unless quarry bolted. Quote Link to post

ratkilla 35 Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 Pip this season i was luckily enough to go over to the states for a month hunting, and boy i saw some gear taken i had a good few digs to raccons which are good game to dig and even lucky enough to dig an american badger that are super hard to find as they are nomadic and don't settle in one spot for long at all, once they know you are there they literately swim through the soil but we dug it with a well breed dog from england that lock on and held if for us. When i went barn hunting for raccoons i saw some great russels hunt that were as good as you get the guy who invited us up there to hunt takes about 1000 head of raccoon a season roughly. He kennels russell's as he has a type that work for him i saw a few of his dogs work two in particular that really stuck in my mind one smaller bitch called badger who if i rember rightly was about 6-8 years of age who found well and still real hard on her quarry a bit to hard as she was laied up after two barns but you can't knock a hard dog, the guy brought out his old dog about 10 who didn't fail to find and still grabbed hold despite being worked hard every season of his life. One of the guys i stayed with out there kept two nice russell's one was retired and one was semi retired that we took barn hunting too, at the age of ten he worked every inch of the barn finding his quarry till we got there to sort the quarry out once we had done that he didn't want to rag or piss about but just search and find another real good dog IMHO and found in some odd places he had a noses on him like a hound. To the guys i stayed with in the states and the guy who invited us barn hunting i didn't have a bad work against them when it comes to terrier work one dog to ground and if that was dog was no good then it wasn't kenneled and their after care for the dogs was second to none to that really impressed me and their overall care for their dogs was just how it should be dogs feed grub, clean water, clean kennels, well exercised and the dogs well worked. It's just ashame that the GENUINE terrier lads in the states are tared with the same shitty brush that the knob rots who kennel shit and talk shit and to tell the truth don't seem to know shit about terrier work. But thankfully there are lads who keep them selves to them selves over there and get on with with it not letting the yanks living the so called dream of the hunt terrier man in england bring them down and still work their dogs and test them.
