I have my older dogs on MSG supplements for arthritis, but have heard that SASHA'S BLEND provides excellent results. Does any one have experience with it? It is apparently quite pricey, so I would like some more information on it before buying. It is available online. LA

A year ago she was just a handful of puppy, and look at her now . . . . :)

Can anyone please help me? How do I attach a photo to a reply I want to mail someone in Personal Messenger? :b :b

Silly me, I've gone and lost Roma's contact details :( . I dearly want to contact her, but living abroad it's impossible to even get her phone number without her address, so I'm l-o-s-t. Can someone please help me . . . .

Hi all, I hope you all have a festive season filled with PLENTY of this :) , and this :D . May you have NONE of this :( , or this :angry: , and definitely not this :rant: . Remember that too much bubbly may make you feel like this :wacko: , or this :teehee: or even...

Has someone perhaps got a link for me to a site where I can see the top winning whippets in the USA in the past year. Preferably with pics, pedigrees, etc.

They do just melt your heart, don't they?

This year has seen the loss of two more very special Silkstone whippets - the one in France and the other one in South Africa. :( SILKSTONE OPERA QUEEN ("Thais") (1995-2009) from Danielle Lempereur's Blue Springs kennel in France was truly that 'pearl beyond price' - a broodbitch who passes...

Silkstone Secret Gold ("Damon") was a stunning dog in the showring and he left a wonderful legacy of progeny of classic type that Roma Wright Smith was so, so well-known for producing. His passing is indeed a sad loss to the whippet breed. He sired a few litters in the UK before moving to...

My whippets juts love to lie and chew cow hooves. :D It is good for the teeth/gums and keeps them occupied. I was wondering if they are available in the UK and if other whippet owners also feed them to their dogs? Or have ever had any bad experiences with feeding them? As a precaution I...

Here are a some more pictures of this clan having a ball in the daisies. . . :) :D

Here in the southern hemisphere, spring has sprung. And if you're a whippet, oh-what-fun it is catching imaginary butterflies and chasing imaginary rabbits on a carpet of daisies . . . . :)

A friend of mine has a 10 year old Whippet which has been diagnosed with a degenerative neurological disease, MYELOPATHY. This is often called "canine multiple sclerosis" and she has been told there is no cure for it. It ends in total paralysis. The first symptoms my friend noticed was a...

Two whippet pups, a brother and sister of about 10 weeks old (see pic), were discovered in disgusting conditions in a pet shop in South Africa. They were emaciated and very dirty with distended little bellies, their cage was much, much too small, no blanket or chews, only dry pellets and water...

Whippets really do know how to "chill", don't they? Please note all the discarded toys in the background. . . but this lot are too busy working on their tan to waste time on toys 8) 8)

I have learnt how vitally important it is to make a habit of TOUCHING your whippets as MUCH AS YOU CAN as they get older. They often suffer from a partial or complete loss of hearing as they get on in years, (the degree of which we are not always aware of) therefore the bond one has with them...

I have discovered the most marvellous treatment for healing stubborn superficial wounds on dogs. It is called Melladerm and is a honey based ointment with vit A and calendula and is often used to treat pressure wounds on people. It probably goes by another name in the UK. Being a paraplegic...

Can anyone give me advice as regards pro's and con's of the ovariohysterectomy (ovaries and uterus removed) as opposed to the ovariectomy (where only the ovaries are removed)? Also, there are apparently vets who perform spaying by means of keyhole surgery. Anyone had it done this way?

Are dual or multi-sire matings accepted by the Kennel Club in the UK? And if so, are they frequently done with whippets? What is the general feeling about this practice of intentionally mating more than one sire to a female?
