Spaniel Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 HI I have been looking off and on at the Fox Red Labs. What seems to take my eye more then often is a good deep red in colour,(To be honest deeper the better) small size Bitch, I have carried out some searching on google and taken a look at the Dargdaffin lines But does anyone have any knowledge on what other lines of these fox reds i should be looking at. It would be a working dog and my immediate idea in my head would be to use it for Wildfowling, and maybe picking up when im not out working the Spaniels Any info would be appreciated, but thought it would be worth asking the question Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickyspringer Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 pedigrees don't come into it mate, just look at litters a few have the fox red in them, look at the pedigree and go with it, don't restrict yourself, I like the Foxy's myself fancy one in the future when i'm a little older for an old mans dog Good Luck & if you want any help looking for one, I'll happily browse all day looking for a working bred fox red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WGD Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 I think Int FTCh Craighorn Bracken was a fairly prolific red sire, so it would be worth a look at Craighorn lines and some descendants further down the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
