I saw this recent advert on Preloved:
"Desperately seeking the whereabouts of Greatcoates Pistol Pete (Jet), a black and white whippet dog, 21 inch. He will be about 6 years old now. I sold this dog at the beginning of 2010, and understand he has been rehomed since, i was told he was known to...

even if it's too late to enter, it is worth attending the Whippet Club of Scotland championship show on 14 June because there will be such a large number of whippets there

I'm so sorry for you and the puppy. I don't know if the vet could have done anything, but am surprised he wasn't more concerned.
The things that spring to my mind re bleeding are liver disease, warfarin (rat poison) and hemorrhage ... too many possibilities
there is a lot to be said for having two dogs who get on well together and keep each other company. I am an owner of multiple dogs and I don't particularly recommend people take on more than two, given the extra time needed to give them individual attention (not to mention additional expenses)...
Couldnt any arrangement be made to give the owner some help with dog care/walking rather than trying to find a new home for a dog who will be difficult to rehome due to breed and disability?
I wouldnt be sure about the advice re spaying because it is fairly common, maybe about 20%, for bitches to become incontinent after spaying. Often hormone medication is given to deal with this problem. I've also seen advice to feed a bitch raspberry leaf supplements for 12 weeks after the onset...
I got a 6 mo old collie who was a little pudgy but I've been feeding her fairly generously (mixture of adult and junior dry foods) as I want her to grow in height and also because she spends much of the daytime outside in the cold. She is over 9 mos old now and has just come out of her first...
I wouldnt think she would need much more than 300 gm a day (it does depend on the type of food and how tall she is - which would give an idea of ideal weight). But of course you have to cut it down gradually. It sounds like she gets enough exercise, though it would be nice if she can get a bit...
I thought you were working with JR, Kathryn. Have you started a new rescue?
Good opportunity for anyone who is dog free at present - it's nice to have two dogs but only advised that you get them at the same time if they are already bonded.
Sally is a black and tan saluki X. She was rescued last month from Derry City Council pound. She's young, maybe under a year old, and medium sized (when I saw her I thought 24 in or less), friendly and good with other dogs. Adoptable from Rainbow Rehoming, Eglinton Co. Derry...
Whippet Rescue Ireland no longer functions as a rescue group, but operates a facebook page http://www.facebook.com/WhippetRescueIreland?fref=ts as a sort of clearing house listing whippets and whippet mixes in Irish pounds and rescues. Some of the personel of Sighthound Strolls were involved...
I've had a few unspayed bitches, no problems with them except for having to restrict them during seasons so they wouldn't get pregnant. I did have one bitch who would mount my leg when she was in season and she did not do that at any other time. I know of bitches mounting other bitches when in...

Millie is a white with black female greyhound type (no ear tattoo). Her owner has not been found and she is now up for adoption. Her fosterer is full of praise for Millie's temperament and she mixes well with dogs of various sizes. Lost and Found Pets Derry N Ireland...
all of the above Dogs Trust Dublin dogs apart from Dexter are still listed as needing homes.
