Hi, I'm looking into getting a dog at the moment and I was wondering what people would recommend.
I initially liked the idea of a BMH but then read the recent BMH thread and, well, enough said.
Ideally the dog would be a pet who would come to work with me (I'm a self employed Cabinetmaker and Joiner on a Farm) and would also live in my house (a smallish town house) .
The dog would be a pet but one that I can train for tracking a wounded Deer, should it be needed, but I don't want something that can't think about anything else and can't be around other people or kids. I don't want a yappy dog either, I'd like one that can quietly sit up a high seat and enjoy life with me, also, it would be nice if it were smallish, like Spanial sized. So, I've been toying with a Wire hared Teckle ?
My only concerns with the Teckle are its little stumpy bumpy legs ! Maybe they are a positive thing rather than a hindrance ? I imagine that they could work quite well on a wounded Muntjac in thick cover ?
Kindest Regards, Olaf
