Yes he was glad to see me sparky! I had just got him fit after the summer as well and was looking forward to an uninterupted winter of work, The month away with my job has set Tod back and now I have to be careful not to overwork him too quickly despite the urge to play catchup. The weather...

Here is a couple of pics of Tod after his lamping trip last night. Have been away for over a month with my job so was pleased with the result and his fitness. great conditions last night.

mally do you know any more about him, whats his breeding, height etc Would love to convince the wife. not sure she would let me though :(

Cathrine very sorry to hear that news , please don't think I am being insensitive but this is a subject close to my heart! firstly your right dogs should be properly looked after and not allowed to roam especially if they are ill behaved, but what about the cats roaming tendencies? my dog has...

Wobbly witch nice looking dogs, do you work them? they look fit and well cared for.

I wasn't talking about hunting and racing, I don't race my dogs, never have was just talking about whippet people in general, hunting and racing owners alike. Just my opinion, thats what forums are for. :cheers:

Not any one in particular Norbit just generally do you or don't you agree? I just find whippet people a bit more pasionate as a rule ( general ) than others.

Frodo you are quite right about ferrets not being fed entirely on Milk but a little bit in a bowl that it shares with a dog has never done mine any harm

I can see that I have caused a bit of a stir on what is normally a very calm and good natured site :oops: There are many other working dog sites where this kind of argument is common place, the reason I enjoy coming on here is because of the lack of aggro! I am sorry for any grief that I have...

Read the other post Mike ! Almost everyone on here knows that I am Andy Bell I have no need or desire to hide! What recognition was I trying to gain? If it was recognition that I was after then surely I would have used my name!!!! I'm not in this game for recognition or money or anything...

Ok Have been away for a few days and can see that things have gotten out of hand! Firstly and I will put my hand up here and say that my comments were inflamitory ( dodgy spelling! ) It wasn't my intention to start anything or cause a row but simply state something that I thought was of...

Monty and Jack look stunning, real beauties in cracking condition. Here is a couple of Tod doing what comes naturally!

Just a word of caution here! and I don't want to be slanderous or nasty but I too liked Mike Browns dogs and they did/do have a good reputation. About ten years ago I went to visit his kennels and placed an order for a pup, a few things went wrong that were very strange and I was fobbed off and...

Your just lucky that I live in Scotland or I would put an end to all these silly challenges once and for all! :- "

I think you are all mad feeding these expensive brands and exotic concotions! just remember who is in charge. Whippets can try and be fussy and if they are allowed to get away with it will, they aren't stupid! Feed them a good quality food, mine get wafcol greyhound or skinners working mix, 12...

Ignore them for the first couple of mins! they are becoming conditioned to getting attention as soon as you walk in the door, if they continue gently stand on their back toes whilst saying NO in a sharp voice, they and you will soon get the hang of it.

Thanks for the support everyone, it was a tough decision but I made the right choice for him and that was the most important thing, he never felt a thing and drifted off happy and content. He is buried at the top of a hill on one of his favourite hunting grounds, re running all the great chases...

:( :( :( Today Murphy passed away peacefully at half one :sad: Couldn't feel any worse before but am relieved that I did the right thing by him before he started to suffer. He went with dignity and that is what he deserved, I have been robbed of many good years but I couldn't have wished...

Not training your dogs to be stock broken is a liability that could result in the loss of your dog to the farmers gun or land you in court. It really is very easily done and if you work your dogs at all then it should be done before you venture near a field with the intention of catching...

Nigel just have a cheap fujipix 2 mega pixel job, a few years old and ancient by todays standards! I just take loads of shots and get the odd good one.
