Has anybody else had experience of this:- wherever I take my male 20 month old sweetheart Louie, most other male dogs fall in love with him (by means of licking his bits, then wanting to do the business :- ). Honestly, it's wherever I go with him, the same thing happens. Louie is not intact...

Hi all Need some advice please on a cracked paw pad. At the end of my 19 months old Louie's run this morning, i noticed he was limping :> . I had a look under his paw to find quite a deep cracked pad. He dosen't seem to be in pain now, but i wondered if there was anything tried and tested...

Hi all! I'd really appreciate it if anyone has got any advice on how to avoid a wee damaged lawn? I've mowed my lawn this afternoon for the upteenth time this year, & it's got to be in its worst state ever :( . People have told me that it's usually bitches that are the source of this...

Hello all On two occasions in the past week i've had awful encounters with a very unpleasant horse rider 'lady'. On Saturday, i was having a pleasant walk with Louie my almost 1 year old whip along the Mersey Banks river near our home, when all of a sudden from around the bend, two ladies...

Hi guys Ive not been able to post photos of my 10 month old Louie for sometime because my resizing went to pot, & they appeared tiny. So think they could be ok now. Louie really is my darling & has grown into the most adorable natured sweetheart, & i cant remember what life was like before he...

Hi guys For a the past week or so, ive been thinking how much my boy Louie has shot up in height, so tonight i got my tape measure & measured to the top of his shoulders - it measured 22 inches. Out of curiosity, is Louie a bit on the taller size compared to other whippie dogs? Does not make a...

Hi guys I received this morning Louie's latest accessories for the winter - double polo fleeces. I think they're absolutely fab, & just couldn't resist showing him off. We've got another one too, in grey & black, just as nice. I don't think he could wear anything more snug & warm than these...

Hi guys As always im dithering about another important decision i have to make about my 9 month old whip Louie. He has not been microchipped yet, & now our local community centre is holding a free dog clinic & microchipping day on Friday. Was wondering if it will be ok to get Louie...

Hi there I usually go on the general whippet forum, but i thought this post would be more relevant to this one. I have a 8 month old whippet called Louie. He's absolutely wonderful in every way. I took him for a run this afternoon, & as always, im in awe of his sheer speed. Then it sprang to...

Hi all Just wanted to show off Louie's new jumper (his first one ever). I am so pleased with it, & think it really suits my little man. It will certainly keep him warm in these winter months. Thank you Wendy!!! :) :thumbsup: :)

I was just watching my 3 year daughter cuddling up to my 8 month old whippet Louie. Louie was in heaven, lying next to her, & i thought 'how absolutely great are whippets'. He is just wonderful with my daughter Aimee, they are so good for eachother its untrue. What better breed of dog to...

Hello all As always im still learning being a first time whippet owner, & its come to my attention how much my Louie is sleeping at the moment. Im not sure whether it is a combination of the cold weather (just wanting to snuggle down on the sofa), or because he is calming down a little...

Hello all After reading the thread earlier regarding fawn colours, its reignited my uncertainty about my Louie's colouring. On Louie's papers it states silver & brindle with white trim, but im thinking now his 'silver' looks 'fawn'. Really unsure, would appreciate opinions please to end my...

Hello everyone Ive been visiting this forum for a while, but i have not had the time to fathom out how to upload photos. So after lots of trying i've been successful! So i would like to introduce my sweeheart whippet Louie. He's 7 & half months old, & a real treasure. Louie is my first...

Hi there I have a 4 & half month old whippet pup called Louie, and i was hoping for some advice please because i am at a stage where i do not know what to do for the best regarding what to feed him. When i first brought Louie home from the breeders at 8 wk old, i was feeding him a combination...

I would be grateful of some advice please. I have a 12 wk old whippet pup (which is my first whippet). The breeder where i bought him from advised me not to castrate him, due to him gaining weight at an older age etc.. However, when speaking to a dog trainer, she advised that castrating a dog...

Please could somebody advise of a good place/web site to buy a whippet collar & lead. I have a 12 wk old puppy called Louie, who i am still using a puppy collar & lead. Louie is the first whippet i have owned, & i think he's wonderful, but gosh ive never experienced how lively whippet puppies...

:D I would just like to thank everyone who has replied and contributed to my initial query regarding the compatibility of cats with whippets. I have loved reading all the replies, & the experiences of other whippet owners with cats. I really feel humbled that so many of you have taken time to...
