I took him as I have said to Westhoughton on Saturday and Vicky kindly hand slipped him down the straight. He had 2 runs and appeared to take to it. I think if he manages a trial or 2 on Sunday, they will be just down the straight as well. I think Vicky said gradually taking him back a little...

That is so funny, Jack won't eat the beef Bakers either. How very odd. Thanks Wild Whippies, It was my own thoughts that thought Jack was overweight by looking and possibly comparing his size to the other whippies. :( I didn't really know what to expect, and when I did arrive, he seemed...

At the moment Bakers is the only food I can get Jack to eat but he is quite podgy in comparison to the other whips I saw on Saturday. It is odd as he gets plenty of exercise. It may be that I am feedin him a little too much, :b but it could also be that Bakers has got a lot of fat content (I...

I think I am going to gradually change his food over to Red Mills? He is currently on Bakers. :- " I don't think I overfeed him and he goes on a walk/run everyday with a huge run on either sat or sun, so the weight thing concerns me a little. :b But as you say, as he gets older and fitter...

It was my first time at an event like this as I wasn't really intending to race Jack. Well, I must admit I really enjoyed the night and am kinda hooked. Thanks to Vicky for letting me trial Jack, and must say he did a lot better then I first thought he would do. Thanks also to Naylor Whippets...

Thats fine, each to their own opinion. IMO I don't feel that cus someone can't afford upwards of £400 for a pet whippet (or any pets for that matter), doesn't mean they shouldn't own one. They, like me can buy an unregistered one for £200. (I once paid £400 for a pure bred, KC reg'd Collie who...

I think we all love our whippets KC reg'd or not. :wub: As trish 9 said, not every one can afford ped prices. :- " I would have loved a show whippet, but can't afford the prices of them. I would also love to show mine off, nearly every one I have come across has said he has potential, but...

I agree with most of what you have said except the bit where you say an unregistered whippet is no more value then a mongrel or crossbreed. I have a pure bred whippet, both mum/dad are whippets, dad was registered but mother wasn't. My jack also is not KC registered, therefore non ped. I paid...

The Vat man is clamping down on traders that do a runner, trying to catch them before they do as it is costing the econmomy billions a year. :o The tax man is clamping down on people who are not declaring their earnings or paying NI. I agree with an earlier post, don't mess with them, be...

What a roller coaster of emotions you have all been through over the last few weeks. :unsure: Hope Ginni gets better with the new AB's and is back to her normal self soon. :luck: Thinking of you all at this stressful and emotional time :luck:

Thanks for all the advice and tips. :cheers: Have read through all the links and found some sound advice there. Got some anti chew spray, that seemed to work on that carpet spot but the little bugger decided to try somewhere else, so think I will need to buy a crate of the stuff. Bed time...

Well I have now had Jack for 1 week. :wub: My vet has said they won't give his 1st jab till he is 10 weeks, so he is booked in for next week. I am finding that he is a really cheeky fellow. Likes to sleep a lot during the day after his play times, but I think he expects this at bed time as...

HI. I have just got a new whippet pup, he arrives with me in 1 week. I just need advice on jabs etc. I currently have a 6yr old Lurcher bitch, and am just wondering if I should really have the pup vaccinated before or not, then the frequency of jabs. I have been told so many different ages to...

Any update on the homing situation of this little un yet. :wub: Be very interested to know either way.

Thanks, I had seen the bitch before and just looked at the other website mentioned. He looks to be a big lad, maybe a little big. Looking maybe 19" to shoulder. I think both dogs beautiful, seriously looking at bitch though, but as mentioned, Yorkshire may be a bit to far at the moment. I have...

Hi there, just wondering, have all these little crackerjacks found foreva homes yet? : :D
