sorry to piss on the fir lads but me mother has one and it is game as a lord. i have seen it hunt a few time for rat and mice with out training and it came so natural to him at a young age we had a mice family in the back garden and he killeed the lot of them plus a cat which got in his way in his own back garden.

ps i aint saying they are good proven workers but all i am saying is that the westie in it will make it game as a badger. and me mothers westie you would look at it and it looks like it wouldnt harm a fly.

Girl who works for me, her husband beats with a springer and a westie, gets some funny looks but I'm assured that the westie (bitch)

is right on. To ground, forget it.. Cheers, D.

Think in an old edrd theres a letter or short article about someone NE or further up keeping them for work?Never heard anything since though.but theres a million miles between a game looking fighty type killing rats etc in its own back yard and the qualities that are needed to stay for hours in the quarries back yard.

Thanks Stabs, that was a great day, remember the trip over to Germany with Rambo the westie and that old show winning Scottie of yours....Angus was it? I remember we had to give the dogs torches and a miners hat because they were scared of the dark................Happy days, I added the westie blood into Wilfs linebred yorkies.....real animals, would kill a rat in no time.......well if they had ever caught one.

Yes but thats probably 1 in a million, and many dogs will kill rats and mice its earthwork that tests their character of the dog..........

There was a pet westie accidentally went to ground in a badger sett in hamsterley forest a few years back, whilst the owners had it out for a walk..

[Guest gaz100604]

we had a westie for my sister what a mong of a dog hed bark and show his teeth at you for now reason , bite the legs off lurchers,was dangerous around kids we had him as a pup dont know what went wrong.

[Stabs 3]

Aye, you're not wrong there Simon.

 

Here's Rambo going to ground on those mice

 

 

If I remember correctly Rambo had three sessions to ground that day?

He mixed it with the first two mice but by the third, he'd learned a bit of discretion.

We lifted the hatch to him and he was sat off a bit, baying away like a good un'

By his death at the ripe old age of 25 he had accounted for 35 mice, 3 rats and a disabled squirrel. All single handed apart from the rats, the squirrel and 34 of the mice.......... He sadly passed after going to ground after a hormone laden shrew during the breeding season, I couldn't dig him out before the shrew could inflict a terrible mauling........The only consolation is he sired 89 litters and made me some serious coin...

 

RIP Rambo....
