Hi there When Barney was 9 months old in a freak accident of him just wagging his tail enthusiastically we believe he hit the tip of his tail against a cupboard. The tail split open and bled like crazy. The vet was going to stitch it under anaesthetic but the X-ray showed he had shattered the...

One of my boys had that. We were going to have him neutered anyway and the vet suggested this was best in this case especially if it isn't going to "drop"

Mayflower in Bawtry in Doncaster has Bella. Not sure if she's whippet or greyhound cross. She's blue in colour. I saw her on the news some time back as she had poorly front legs and they were raising money for operations. These have been done and I think Mayflower will contribute to any future...

He's beautiful! Anne

Thanks for yr replies. I was kinda thinking along those lines but just wanted to check out other peoples views. It's hard not to worry even though you know you shouldn't!!!

Yes I think so. It's really small and totally not attached

Hi Dylan who is approx 3.5 years old had a cyst removed from his leg 2.5yrs ago. He now has on his other front leg a pea size lump under the skin. It doesn't bother him and it's different from when he had that cyst. This little lump is detached under his skin any ideas? The vet said cysts...

My 2 boys live with a 3 legged cat (!!) and are all fine. They all give each other space. However, one morning we too were chased down the street by a big angry Ginger cat. Totally unprovoked. We were just walking past it's front garden. It's funny now thinking of the way the 3 of us got...

Thanks so much for your replies. One reply mentioned barging. Yes this happens too. I will take on board all suggestions and take it from there. Anne

Just been on our evening walk. We didn't take the ball as it is too hot for crazy running. However the ball does distract Barney from chasing and "grabbing" Dylan. Mistake. They were chasing each other and I heard Dylan yelp. Barney nipped a chunk of skin from Dylans rear end. Is this a whippet...

Hi there She's a beauty. I have a Roedeane whippet too - Barney - he is 3 yrs old and is wonderful!! Anne

My 3 yr old has started weeing indoors at night. Every so often he starts this up. We went about 5 months of being "dry" at night and for no reason that we can see has started this up again. We do have a crate - do I need to put him in it at night? Or - do I treat him like a tiny pup again...

Aah!!! Now I feel daft!!! Of course - now it makes sense - at least there's nowt to worry about. Thank you!

Hi Ann, can't help with your query (I'm surprised you have no replies!), but it would be lovely to see a pic of Dylan on K9 - he's almost the same age as my Jonah. And welcome to K9!

My Dylan is around 2.5years old now and he has suddenly got on each front shoulder what appear to be very thinning areas to his fur. When he curls up and does the swan thing - where they almost turn their heads back on themselves - the patches seem to be exactly where his chin would rest whilst...

Hello again! It was nice meeting you all this morning in Rossington - it was a shame they didnt all have a little run around - maybe next time. Thanks for posting the lovely photos - they are Dylan and Barney's debut pics on this site!!! Anne

Hi everyone Many thanks for your replies - they are very useful. I will certainly look into PetPlan and More Than as a starter! Anne x

Hi I know there have been discussions on this topic before but does anyone out there have lifetime insurance for their whippets? I got "stung" by an insurance company before who did not pay out on my cat - she had diabetes and later died - as they said I had claimed past the 12 month period of...
