I will be working ALOT and I mean Alot of private acreage with tons of Raccons, Rats, Oppossum, Ground hogs, Rats, Badgers, Rabbits, coyote, and did I mention rats? I posted some pics of breeds I am interested in the gallery under the title "all show and no go". I am very interested in the Irish, Patterdale, and Black&Tan terriers and welcome any advice or info concerning the breeds, training, after hunt medical care, etc. There is one thing that I am almost certain of from my limited research, and that is it would seem best to have your "young working terrier in training" around and in the field with Working Terriers!!! Would you agree? Warmest Regards Quote Link to post

greggy 18 Posted June 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 and id say most terriers even the ones no good for the ground will kill rats if thats your main interest.....just try and find terriers from working stock if your going to take it seriously.happy hunting. Quote Link to post

Thanks for the reply greggy and yes initially I feel rats would be the safest and easiest way for me and the dogs to progress to larger game/quarry. Also I am in no rush i plan on coming to visit my uncle in Belgium soon and would like to look at some of the breeds I mentioned in my post in the gallery. I am looking at some of the clubs and organizations here in the U.S. but I would prefer breeders from the U.K., excuse me if that sounds biased towards European breeders? Maybe after i learn more about the breeds/breeders/cost etc., if I saw what I liked here in the U.S. I would buy from a U.S. breeder. Warmest Regards Quote Link to post
