My Twiglet is 8 months old.
She is approx the same length as my big Whippet boy who is 5 yo but she is very dinky in height.
When will she be fully grown?
Hi Cathrine,
I live in Durham but not too near you. I used to go to training classes at Shotley Bridge. They were held once a week and you used to pay a couple of pounds on the day but I have since heard that you have to sign up for a course for a fee.
Your vet should know of training classes...
I have just seen an advert for someone wanting an Italian Greyhound to mate their Whippet.
Is this cross quite rare?
Just there seems to be an awful lot of Greyhound x Whippets so how come you never see Ig x Whippets?
Hello,
Does anybody know of a fawn dog or bitch Whippet of about 2 years old that needs a new pet home with a couple who are at home all day and have another dog?
Please let me know as they are a lovely couple who live in Durham.
Thanks.
Does anybody have a dog or bitch Whippet older than 2 years old that needs a loving pet home with an older couple and their crossbreed?
They will be taken on 4/5 walks a day and will have company all day.
The couple are based in Durham/Northeast.
Please pm me.
Many thanks.
Twiggy is just over 5 months and I'm not sure when to expect her season.
I have read in books that the first one is due about 6 months but I don't know if Whippets differ from other breeds.
I'm sure her breeder said that Twiggy's mum didn't have her first one till she was 3 years old and I...
I think once Fletch meets a dog who isn't going to put up with his mouthing and lets him know, he will learn his lesson.
Twiggy is the same. Totally ott around other dogs and I'm suprised she hasn't been nipped.
At this age they just love all dogs but I am sure they will calm down. It is just...
Hi all,
Cloud is doing amazingly well.
Back to his usual self but very annoyed not to be let off his lead anymore.
I wasn't supposed to walk him for another 2 weeks at least, mainly because of him scratching the wound but I have just been sticking to boring flat walks. He needed to get out...
Hi Decca,
Yeah I'm going to go next weekend too. I'm going to let my little bitch pup have a look. Not sure about Cloud, my injured one though - he's aggressive with other dogs. Suppose I could muzzle him.
Ideally I'd like to race him cos he had a really bad injury 3 weeks ago and I'll never...
Took Fin to have a look at the Whippets racing at Westerhope today and he had a run up.
I don't know if anyone who races there comes on to k9 but I thought the people were really approachable and interesting.
Thanks, Kirsten
I'm not trying to be funny but if this is the same Ig then surely if someone was willing to pay that amount for him then it is more than likely going to be a good home.
Maybe the owner desperately needs the money (which isn't really any of our business).I mean people will only pay what they...
I brought Cloud home yesterday. He is feeling very sorry for himself. I have to carry him into the garden for his toilets and uptairs to bed with me. He has accepted going into his cage during the day.
Today is the crucial day to see if the stitches will hold.
I have kept the little man who...
Thanks for all your kind words and comments.
Went to visit Cloud today. He is bearing up well. It took a long, long time to stitch him up because the skin had to be stretched so much. It is touch and go as to whether the stitches will burst and if they do he will most probably have to have a...
