[sadieandco]

Hi Neil

Country Mystery is bred out of Rch/Nch Mustard and Rch/Nch Country Lady.

And Darrens dog was doing well on the club handicap last season.

Hi Anthony,

Yes we run at Maltby sometimes and they do run the handicap on times.

We'll probably see you at blidworth on sunday with Treacle Ice and Mario.

sadie and kim.

 

[dawn]

where do you run at Maltby. We live close by and would like to come see, used to race many many years ago but now only show but do appreciate a good running dog. Are there any other sites in South Yorks? I have heard Swallownest is shut and Sheffield Parkway and Kiveton Park so where is there still left??

 

[sadieandco]

Hi Dawn,

Not sure where we race at Maltby but we'll try and find out.My nan and mum run Manton WRC which is just 20 mins away from Maltby.

Did you use to race at Kiveton?

And what dogs (racing names) did you use to race?

sadie

I join the K9 forum for the first time. I'm a German whippet owner of 3 dogs and 1 bitch. In summer we (my husband and I) go racing with our dogs on several tracks in Germany and the Netherlands. I'm interested in nonpedigree whippets because an ancestor of one of our dogs is Andy Thor out of RCh Nip and open racer Miss Thor. Andy Thor  was imported to France and became very famous on the continent because nearly every litter out of him was very fast. Please, if there are any informations about him or his bloodlines or about bloodlines similiar to Andy Thor's which are racing today, tell me. I would be very pleased.
