Could a seperate fourm/section be added for dogs working below ground? Using dogs to work quarry underground is not a huge sport in this state but there are people who do this type of work. Other people maybe not know about terrier work and would love to hear about how it works and the stories and pictures that go along with it. As far as what I can see there is only a "Upland" dog hunting section.
Thank you.

They hunt below ground, they are bred for hunting fox in the UK below ground, in the US they are still used for fox, raccoon, opossum and other animals that cause distruction to property. All terriers were bred to hunt below ground that is why they were given the name terrier. Terra in latin means earth. Yes, there is the boston terrier and a few others.. However, I don't know how they were given the name because they don't hunt. In the showring which I am partly againest you will see the boston terrier and a few others not in the terrier group.
