News just in Roger and I are so proud of our breeding connections with the Best in show and the Best Puppy in Show, Lynne and Eva must be pleased as Best dog was by Cobyco Call the Shots, all these are German owned, so there will be great celebrations in the German camp. Also 4th Best bitch...
This thread could have been great.
MOVED TO .........ADVICE NEEDED. I WAS SICKENED TO READ THAT ANY ANIMAL COULD BE NETTED AND THROWN LIVE TO ANY DOG TO BE RIPPED APART WHAT A TERRIBLE DEATH THIS IS NOT A FAIR PLAYING FIELD AND CERTAINLY NOT SPORT.
THIS TOPIC HAS NO RIGHT ON WHIPPET SHOWING...
Get real all of Dorit Mckays stock were tested in the field & most on the race track & she produced more champions this way than anyone I SAY AGAIN A FUNTIONAL BREED or MULTIPURPOSE BREED. ;)

You go and be functional and let us enjoy our showing. So you have proved a...
Why Oh why do you come on a thread about show whippets, surely you have threads that you can talk about your racing dogs. I think you have been extremely rude about show judges and American and European whippets. You see top class show dogs can hunt race and do all things whippet, but I am...
Of course most people will know what an influence Tarragon had on the famous Dondelayo kennel, a kennel that was inbred to him, it was fitting that he spent the last years of his life at Dondelayo. One of my favourite photos is of Tarragon lying down flanked by his daughter the exquisite Ch...
Whippets are one of the best breeds for welcoming new comers, and their good dogs have not been overlooked. Over the years we can be proud of our judges, proud of the many lovely whippets produced by many kennels, long may it continue. I have nothing else to say.
Bobby James was a Whippet man...
I think that you will find the good dogs win under specialist and all rounders, I think that you do breed specialist a great injustice with your comments. As you say you have been in the breed for four years, these people have given a life time dedication to the breed and through their...
Although Hillsdown Fergal himself could not be called a great show dog he certainly was a great sire, his son the fabulous Dutch Gold was both, a great show dog and a great sire.
I like good feet, I once spent ages doing a critique, read through it when I had finished my ramblings and not one single one had feet, it was before I could use a computer and it was hand written and had to redo the whole thing.
In America you certainly have your dogs photographed a lot more than we do. On a cold day when they are not preforming we would opt out for photo's except if you got a group placing.
One of my dreads is judging the breed on a cold windy day, some will stand up to the conditions some will not, but it is the same for them all. We are lucky in England because we have wet weather rings, at some shows all the rings are under canvas the trouble with these is that they can be a...
Sorry Nicky never remember Glad with the measure, Gillian Usher had the measure on the table set at the correct height, never saw her actually use it on a dog though.
