there is no answer to that bud because you have your good pattes and your bad pattes same as ur lakeys thats why alot of people now days are cross breedin them together when u got a good dog patte/laky there are a brill dogs but has to be a good worker to worker breeding all the best silenthunter

horses for courses mate, everyones gonna have a different opinion on this one. as far as my knowledge goes, patts are more the "if i go to earth, youve gotta have spades with you" as in go to ground and hold till dug, and lakies were used in the lakes for killing to ground in rock dens. thus the lakie is a "harder" dog, but then patts are also well known for being hard as nails, see im even contradicting myself now!! look forward to the replys off this one!!

 

worker - worker is what counts though!
