    Thanks for the good read. Pity they didn't know about break sticks back then. There were some dogs from the Black country at the Gem fields in QLD. An English couple had brought them out many years ago. They just kept them as pets and bred a few generations. They were taller than average SBT and light on their feet. My brother told me they no longer have them which is a pity. Knew a fellow in Sydney back in the 70's had a lithe little staff he brought out from the mid lands in England. She was blind and had worn her teeth down when I saw her and was about 8 years old. Other dogs would sometimes have a go at her. Instinctively as soon as she had a hold on them she would go to town even though she had no teeth. I was amazed at her dexterity for an 8 year old dog. Dog shows started favouring the big blocky tanks in the 1980's. There is a big difference between the show dogs of today and the SBT from many years ago.
