Terrierwork terrier and cross breeds attack foxes and badgers

Terrier Work

Terrier work is one of the cruellest so-called ‘sports’ and should be illegal, just like dog fighting, fox hunting and badger baiting.

Fox Baiting

In recent times terrier work has developed into a ‘sport’ divorced from hunting with dogs. It has no season, no supervision and no legal restriction.

The National Federation of Working Terrier Clubs boasts 4,000-5,000 members but at least an equal number do not belong to any organisation. The average terrier gang consists of a small group of men with assorted terriers, lurchers, nets, iron bars and spades.
