This is our Drama and her best buddy "JC" (aka Just Cat)
JC was here before the whippet puppies came and set the
record streight real quick just who was boss around here -
she was very comfortable with her position and the dogs
role as back warmers -

There occasionally comes a time when all the hounds are asleep at once and there is peace and harmony throughout the house - This particular moment is one of those.
It comes to mind something I have noticed in our pack and I have seen it mentioned from time to time on any one of the several...
13 year ago today a beautiful litter was born to Cajen Whippets (Carolynn Bates) This litter brought us 2 girls that would be the start of Wildhare Whippets. One of those girls is Cajen Fillette JC a red brindle and white that we call Fillie. Fillie is the sweetest girl anyone would ever want...
Thunder is a bit bigger than the average here - most of the males are in the 21 to 22 inches and 30 to 40 lbs -
we had to pick the judges that we knew wouldnt mind "size" with him - you would probably like his littersister
(little Flame) that is quite petite and weighs in at a whopping 26 lbs...
I'm glad you like Thunder - thats my boy - we were both showing and coursing at the same time -
working on his conformation and field championships at the same time so he had to be in shape
to avoid injury - Thunder is a "substantial" boy at 22.5 inches and running weight of 48 lbs -
we do...
I never seem to have the camera handy when Delta is in her self-made cave
but one of her puppy owners sent me a picture - it must be genetic -
(now how in the world would one breed for that trait???)
This is Chase - a Delta son - Jo (the owner) calls it the "turtle bed"
a new bed - padded all around - nice fuzzy fabric - looks nice -
add a nice comforter that has been in a tub since we won it
a coupla years ago at a show and what do they do -
re-arrange everything - the comforter is now on the floor and the
nice padded bed is upside down with Delta in her...
Thunder usually overruns the corners and prefers to run outside the string - neither Thunder or Sterling have been
running that long and rarely cut unless the lure is way way out front - the course was measured with a wheel -
speed is judged as part of their score but that is relative and...
Thunder who is a Dual Champion (confirmation and lure coursing) ran a rather long course of 875 yards
with the other Field Champion for breed and they both were time clocked at 49.5 seconds for the run -
if I figured that right that would be 36.15 miles/hour average for the course - how does...
I woke up this morning long before the sun came up and watched the
summer sun rise in the east - its gonna be a good day - the long shadows are
still on the ground hiding the tall grass on what we call a lawn - the dandelion
puffs are gently swaying in the breeze spreading their seeds like a...
We were just absolutely thrilled that Thunder was able to complete his field championship
so quickly - its a lot different in the show ring where the handler has a lot to do
with the outcome by handling the presentation of the hound - Coursing you just
take the dog to the line and when...
BIF Dual Champion Wildhare Distant Thunder SC ! ! ! !
Today we took Thundeer coursing - he was needing just 4 singles to finish
his AKC Field Championship - we had to enter his mother "fat lady Delta"
to squeeze 2 points for whippets - today Thunder was in good running frame
of mind and did...
We went Lure coursing to qualify Thunder for the ASFA International Invitational
(locally known as "The II) trials coming up in May - these are pictures
taken during the trial and earned him enough points to qualify to run in the II -
enjoy
