This will be my last post on this board, but before I leave, I would like to know if some of you can recommend any other whippet discussion boards out there? Preferably with members from Britain and Europe, and not accepting of racism.
It could just be coincidence, but I have a friend with a young GSD bitch with frequent seasons (always followed by false pregnancies). It might be an idea to investigate further whether this is a common problem within the breed, and in that case whether it will pass, or what experience others...
From "The Rules" (My emphasis. Click "Rules & Disclaimer" in the top left menu for the full set of rules):
The Warning System
We operate a warning system for all members. Initially all Members have a warning level of 0%. Any Member found to be breaking any K9 Community rules or disrupting the...
No, please enlighten me as to what this tells you.
I already reported and/or commented on a couple of posts in their respective threads. Trying to respect the rules of K9community and every other discussion board I know, I chose to start a new thread about this, instead of hijacking another...
If I wanted to stir things up, do you really think I would have waited two years from I first joined the board?
Believe me, noone would have been happier than me if I had not felt it necessary to start this topic.
I have not really come across any racist posts until recently (could be a number of reasons - I am not as active on the forum all the time, I am not equally interested in all sections of the board etc.), but i certainly have and will report any post I find offensive and against the board rules...
Thank you all for the support. I really appreciate someone with English as their first language voicing their stand against racism as well - as obviously you do it a lot better than me.
I must say I have been very shocked by the lack of concern some of my fellow board members have shown for some recent very racist postings (there might have been more in the past that I have not noticed) - even to the point of defending them.
Racism is certainly a problem in Norway as well, but...
I would advise to get one first - and plan for another one in two or three years time. Just make sure the first one gets lots of interaction with friendly dogs of different ages, sexes and preferably different breeds. Alternatively, I would get a friendly, mature dog that needs rehoming first...
I think my Gullet looks very much like her mother Bertha in colour and markings:

Bertha (Hjortronblommas Gin Kelly):
Gullet also has remarkably similar markings to her maternal great-great-great grandmother Kittre:

The Norwegian song was not among the ten semifinalists who get to sing in the finals :- (
From the results, it seems it might be a good idea to move our country to Eastern Europe (or perhaps send better songs).
Liked: Hungary, Turkey, Serbia
I have also heard the Swedish song this year...
:oops:
These are the ones I know for sure have been involved in the breed (would have done this earlier if I had the time - I hope you still have use for it):
Bitte Ahrens – Sobers (currently owns, don’t know if she has bred whippets, but IGs and greys)
Bo Bengtson (Bohem)
Knut Fr...
Funny, we have loads of them here, but my whippets have never shown any interest in them.
Found some information about their medicinal use: http://www.pfaf.org/database/plants.php?Centaurea+montana
They have a very faint, but very lovely fragrance.
I guess this could be one starting point, at least: On this page, you can search for all judges licenced in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway or Sweden (although not necessarily living there anymore) for a specific breed:
