Thank you for your reply wild whippies.

i have a black Whippet bitch. Her sire was a blue dog. If I were to mate my bitch with a blue dog, what percentage of the pups would be black and what percentage would be blue? If two solid blue whippets were mated, would all the pups be blue?

Thank you very much folks. :thumbsup:

My whippet recently had a very high temperature, became dehydrated and ended up on a drip. A blood test was carried out which showed an extremely high level of 'Creat.kin'. The vet advised me to cut down the amount of protein in her diet and she seems to be recovering fine. However I am...

What's a "kevla" vest????????????

I haven't got a whippet at the moment but may get a working type shortly. What sort of training do you use? Same as a gundog?

Is it possible to teach a whippet to retrieve rabbits once it has caught them?

Sorry, I think those that voted 'no' are lacking in social responsibilty and just general empathy. I don't think the 'no' people can empathise on even the most basic level with the families of those children torn to pieces by these dogs. I remember a case some 20 years ago when two rotties...

I love dogs but I cannot defend the unregulated ownership of dog breeds that are powerful enough to kill children and are repeatedly implicated in serious and /or fatal attacks. An application for a firearm involves a doctor's report ,with particular reference to the psychological health of the...

A cracker, he's going to be some size!

What did you decide Doxhope?

Just a note of caution. He may start his problem behaviour again shortly because it takes a while for the male hormones to fully dissipate. For example I had a dog castrated which duly mated a bitch a few weeks after his op. However once all the hormones were caput he was a happy eunuch as I am...

Any advice appreciated.

I am looking to buy a whippet /grey at some point in the future. I want a big un 22-24 inches at the shoulder. How can you predict the size of a pup when it is still in the nest?

I am interested in buying a whippet/grey at some point in the future. However I want a big un-22 to 24 inches at the shoulder. I have seen some tiny grews and some whoppers. Is it obvious which are going to be the big uns and which the little fellas when a litter is born?

Own up. have you been practising with Adobe photoshop? Or is it April the first already?

I will not be signing because in the absence of empirical data it is reasonable to assume that certain breeds are more physically able and temperamentally more likely to attack people than others. I think the recently bereaved parents of the children recently killed by the breeds in question...

I will definitely not be signing.

My grandson informs me I have spelt 'adequate' incorrectly and neglected to print the letter 's' in front of 'he' on two occasions. Happy now yoong man?

Thanks to all who gave well intentioned advice. The dog is a laid back sleepaholic but is nervous of other dogs and strangers following a bad start in life. I will certainly try the medication advised but I think the solution is likely to be a kennel outside the bedroom I will be sleeping in...
