Great day my first whippet racing experience, fantastic, very friendly and made to feel welcome well done to everyone.

Good to hear your season has been fruitful. Mine likewise, it's my first in a while my old lurcher passed away a few years ago and due to certain circumstances I've been dogless since May 06. When I got myself a whippet pup. So really it's just been bringing her on slowly but surely. A bit...

I know it's almost a cliche' but I was just amazed that in that area, I think it was Rochdale not 100% on that though, the breeder had to give the pied pup away. because of this archaic superstition. The new owner told me it was turning out to be the better dog of the two.

I was speaking to a chap the other day who had a small pack of bedlington lurchers his latest arrivals were two 6 month old bedlington whippets out of the same litter ; he said it was a buy one get one free deal because the second one was black and white. He explained that he got them from up...

Thanks Ebbs not that tall she's 19" yeah I agree in principal with what you're saying and I said the same thing as you to Mike Brown when he told me that the pup would catch at 6 months. No too young I said then I started taking her on short late summer evening walks and she showed an interest...

Thanks for the replies and kind words yes they're all growing well it's amazing how quick it goes. I took Ebb ferreting this morning no nets just wanted a bit of sport for the dog she got a couple of runs out of it. Sadly the rabbits are few and far between round by us, a late dose of myxy...
