What a great weekend you've had, well done girls :cheers:

Can those who submit orders through my website make sure that they enter correct email address or i can't get back to you! In case you're a K9er - i had a request from 'Jo' this morning for two purple puppy coats but your email isn't correct so i can't get back to you. We are extremely busy...

Yes that's right Pauline. It is quite worrying to be honest that so many vet's do not know this and unduly worry new owners half to death.

I honestly feel you are worrying unnecessarily about this. If it was my 10 week old pup and a standard vet told me that, i wouldn't be at all concerned. In America Dr. Rebecca Stepien and Dr. Virginia Luis-Fuentes have been carrying out heart studies in relation to Whippets. Their study at The...

I haven't measured but Diego was wearing his by 12 weeks or even younger and he's not a big dog at all :thumbsup:

Today, Sparkle (Citycroft Little Miss Magic) was Best Puppy in Breed and PG1 at East Midland CS Show. :cheers: Well done Sparkle and her mum, Susie (who is a K9 lurker :p ) Only other result i know is that BOB was Ch Spinneyhill Cinnamon at Hammonds. Im waiting for an updated stacked pic...

He's a really lovely puppy - i'll look forward to seeing him again soon :wub: New pups always seem to settle in no problem when there's new Whippet friends waiting for them :huggles:

Good lad Quinn :cheers:

He's a really lovely little chap - best of luck with him :huggles:

Don't they look such good boys and what a lovely glossy coat Tyg has got! Well done :huggles: :cheers:

Great pictures as usual Debs :thumbsup:

Honest answer - yes, i've known quite a few Whippets kill cats. I know mine would if they got the opportunity (but thankfully they haven't). However, despite there being lots of cats in our area, they don't ever come into our back garden, they know they dogs are there so don't risk it. My mum...

Lovely - my favourite pictures are of little pups modelling their coats - very cute :wub:

As we've strayed slightly off original topic - reminder for people to contact their breed clubs in relation to health issues and what you want brought forward. If no one shows interest, testing clinics won't get set up! Jan is the Health Officer for NCWC and i know she is working tirelessly...

The proper reaons and not my rubbish attempts at explaining. Obviously a very useful tool and as i said, it's what the cardio recommended :thumbsup: * The size and outline of the heart. Changes in the size and shape of the heart may indicate a variety of conditions, such as heart failure...

Yes, put in a nutshell i suppose that is exactly what it is for!! :cheers: I do remember him commenting on size in relation to the chest cavity etc so that is what he must have been looking at. When you think about it, scanning the heart alone will not be able to look at it in comparison of...

As Ruby's was normal, i don't know what particular problems he was looking for. He had initially intended to do 2 x-rays but after the first one said he didn't need to do the other. When i was talked through her results i was shown the picture and pointed out the completely normal shape and...

Yes, brilliant if that sort of data is available. I couldn't find it on the website though but i would really like to see it. Our experience was having an experienced cardiologist be able to say Ruby had a healthy heart free from disease, clear valves, no thickening or narrowing in the wrong...

Wendy please don't think im being rude that im questioning this. I have already contacted Karen a couple of weeks back. I have looked at the Whippet Health Foundation. If someone can put me wrong then great - but i didn't think that the testing done at The Whippet National was as extensive at...

Wendy i've looked and questions have been asked, although yes they do a lot more testing than us in America - the extensive testing that Ruby and Dexter have had is not common place so there isn't the stacks of data you may expect.
