AT WHAT AGE WOULD YOU ALL CLASS A TERRIER AS A FAILED EARTH DOG I KNOW THAT SOME START EARLIAR THAN OTHERS WOULD JUST LIKE THIS VERIFYING YIS BAZBULL

[jonesy 111]

Wouldnt say you can put a definate age on it,all dogs are different and i think you just know when it just isnt working out ,ive just got rid of a well bred lakeland that would go in a stop end but it just didnt want to find its own work,id had him in big places,small places a few times and he came out after looking then put my young laky bitch in and dug her out.A few lads said the penny might just drop but then how much longer do you give it,i think if your honest with yourself you know when to say get rid.

Seen this happen then a change of kennel and before you know it they're working away. Sometimes you just don't gel with a dog.

i think thats what happened here as got it off a mate he tryed her in a few different places and wouldnt find so i brought her as a bushing dog then went out bushing with her then bang went in and stayed good result

how long you had the dog pal,give it a while longer mate it may come good and you might regret geting rid,try pegging it up when the other dogs doing the biz and dont even give it a rag at the carcass try this a few times see what happens it worked for a mate of mine

they are never failed, just some excel in diffrent areas, i have spoken to a few people and they all say if a terrier is entered properly they never fail

[jonesy 111]

Not trying to cause an argument but if a dog IMO dosnt do what i ask of it,that is go to ground and stay it is a failed earth dog,but different people have different views.

oh thats what i have been told ....no offence to anyone..........just i have never had any problems with either of myne, lost my pup when she was 12 weeks down a fox set(set off and couldnt catch her) and she thought it was great fun to try and bite me when i tryed to get her out (cheeky fecker) and run back down.......is it a case of the dog being frightened to go to earth?

[jack crowley 5]

if they are started to young and get a fright they wont go down again most terriers are ruined like this some just cant hack the punishment and walk
