Traveller Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Book is worth the money, yet written by a man who knew very little of working terriers yet could listen to every story told at the old "Proper " Working terrier shows and then price his pups with the stories history. Ratting is not a true test of working ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dazza Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Could you post a pic of the front cover. I might have this one one somewhere. If not I'll take it. He lived in cuckoo land but his books are worth a read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulpicide Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Snap I was at one of the "proper" working terrier shows when Brian interviewed Bill O'donnell and Jock Tate for Hunters All. Strange though that a man with Plummers intelligence should have learned so little over the years, Bill O'donnell bought a rough coated Russell bitch of off Brian in 1968 and bred it to our terriers up here and we are still using them for fox control. I'M looking at 2 of them as I type this the bitch is 11 in may and flushed 2 from cover and bolted 1 in her last t 2 outings.YIS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
