A great selection of classes here, Delighted to see Whippets are given their just place in the K9 society at this show, and the winner can compete along side the Terriers and Lurchers in the Overall All Ireland Championship. Well done Albert Titterington and your organisers. We will definately be there on the Sunday, and maybe Saturday if work commitments allow us.

Thanks Stormy for the info

Sammy, Regarding your comment on the "All Ireland Whippet Champion ", at Birr Castle last Sunday ,could you please read Albert Titteringtons Advertisement on Stormys thread. It states very clearly " All Ireland Whippet Champion" and thats the title "Silver won fair and square. Sammy , I think if you have a problem on this, take it up with Mr Titterington. Sammy, Titles or Trophies do not worry us, it s just the enjoyment on the day to see our beautiful Whippet stand up there and do her thing , and bring the Cup back to "Ulster ". I t further puts Whippets and the " Sporting Whippet Club of Northern Ireland " on the map North and South of the border as " Silver " is a member of that club and proud of it.. We are very proud of her. What is titles amoung friends Sammy .
