No one here in Sweden would mind the critiques being published in a dog paper like Dog World, and if we were to start going that I can't see that the judges would start leaving out negative parts! Since we have the system of grading the dogs, we do expact the judge to explain why my dog had a...

Critiques from the whippet club shows are published in our magazine here in Sweden and if the judge is foreign they will be published in English, so sometimes the critiques are there “for the world” to read. In Finland (I don’t know if they still do this?) they used to publish all critiques from...

There are different rules in a number of European countries so you would have to check what is required for the specific country you're going to. In Sweden to enter a dog show you only neeed a distempter (but off course rabies shots and tests and so on being able to enter Sweden) that is not...

Very nice head!!! Henrik

I agree, I am happy that whippets are not a head breed!!! But I must say that a beautiful whippet head is something of the most aesthetic you can come across!!! The photo of Ch Courtney Fleetfoot of Pennyworth that was published in Life Magazine just makes me so happy to look at!!! In the new...

There is a publication produced in Sweden named Scandinavian Sighthounds that is equivalent to The Sighthound Magazine. Last years issue was specialised on whippets and a number of breeders around the world as well as numerous Swedish were asked to pick a favourite whippet head and the one many...

Well done!!! :D :D :D Henrik

A friend of mine in Finland was showing his imported welsh terrier for the first time, under a Swedish all-rounder known to be a bit “strict” in the ring. My friend asked the judge if he possibly could go over the dog on the ground as he did not like tables. No problem the judge said, leaned...

This discussion was from the beginning about American/UK whippets but I think there are whippets out there who are such good specimens that could do well in any part of the world no matter the standards just because they are whippet of high quality and of outstanding breed type. One such whippet...

Talking about the reports from English shows I must say it would be more refreshing if the judges also in more extent also wrote more about what they did not like in the dogs. I know that the tradition in the UK is to talk about the positive traits of the dogs but usually it is the faults that...

The idiotic thing is that the same judge can have two appointments two weekends running one being at the Kennel Club and the other the Sighthound Club and although this judge is qualified to hand out CC:s, one of the shows is worth so much more even though the same judge is doing the job..... No...

I think there should not be a champion’s class in the UK as for until now so many wonderful dogs have become champions in tough competition. The only thing I would have liked to change is the critiques but I do know that it would be impossible to do it the same way as in the FCI countries were...
