Seems a real shame that folks are getting into arguments,over something that happens all the time in the whippet world.Ped(show or race) or non ped pups are bred to compete in whatever discipline.Cannot see a problem in that.The fact that folk do not breed willy nilly but consider breed lines and the actual sire or dam used,means that alot of thought goes into the actual breeding before it happens.As with the rest of the whippet world,our dogs are our pets.The majority proberbly live in the house rather than kennels.Cannot see why it is thought,that because a few whippet owners have bred from there bitches,the resulting pups will struggle to find the correct homes.There's quite a few non ped owners,and if you follow the results of the matings i'm sure you'll see that the pups will all find good homes

That is just the problem though isn't it?? its not just a few - its a great long list of bitches due in the next few weeks!

and its not the initial good homes that concerns me most, it is when they haven't made the grade as I have said before, but as has been said, you all look after your dogs so well and the puppies will be fine, so all well and good!

First of all, don't you dare put non-ped whippets into the association of epups, neither people posting have any knowledge of the non-ped racing world and therefore have no insight whatsoever into how we operate.

We are the one organisation within whippets as a breed that have appointed welfare officers, not that they're overun trying to find homes.

Our litters are comparitively small compared to ped whippets, both in pups from a single mating and in a breed as a whole.

Pups sell for around £150, most are given as gifts to those racers who are known to give good permanent loving homes, regardless of ability.

We have veteran racing, there is an incentive to keep and look after your dog not just as an up and coming youngster but as a hardy, well looked after animal.

We spend thousands (literally) on quality feed, training, veterinary care, osteopaths, physiotherapists, hydrotherapy, massage, ultrasound equipment, embrocations, you name it these dogs are given the best of everything. There is no financial return regardless of how many linings you have.

Do not come on here insulting, me and my fellow racers with your ludicrous and unsubstantiated comments because you have no knowledge whatsoever of us or our dogs. :rant:

I think it's ridiculous that the likes of Elise and I think Geoff has done the same in the past posting the indepth wherabouts of their pups. Funny, I never see such statements posted on other sub forums on this site.

There was one comment you got right, that being that we'd have to have lots of dogs. I am such a person and just to indulge you here goes,

We have 5 champs in total, 3 of which were won as veterans (which I'm proud of) a bully whippet who I won't re-home because I don't trust anyone to look after her as well as we do. A bunch of sloooow peddies that still get run even though they too are veterans. They all get the same exercise regardless of age, I have 2 'open' accounts with 2 seperate vets and everything we've bred is either owned by a family member, a good decent fellow racer or has a loving pet home who would quite happily rip your head off for such derogatory remarks.

Would love to sit here tapping on pc all day but I've got dogs to walk, some to take swimming and some that need some TLC.

Oh and as for that brood list, you can add one more to it, feel free to keep 'tabs' on what becomes of these poor, poor puppies.

another polite post, how charming!

not accused any of you of anything, just stated my concern about the amount of puppies and young adults there will be needing homes when there is always such a rescue problem

oh and my dogs have been walked once will go again later, are curled up on the chair next to me having tlc and I am on holiday from work so will spend it as I please!

Way to go Jacs :thumbsup: Will have to go take a look at some of the other forums on here :-

Guys stop feeding the trolls.

I know that those sad individuals with nothing better to do than stir trouble are an irritation but it's better they are ignored.

My advice to those outside of the non ped community that are insinuating there's a problem with individuals breeding puppies without having any substantive evidence to tread carefully or I will disable your posting abilities.

When I first asked Admin for this forum one of the reasons was to publicise litters being bred. Prices of non ped pups has increased in the last few years and in part I believe this is due to increased awareness of the type. I see a day when non ped pups fetch more than KC registered dogs.

It isn't non ped whippet racers who breed litters of pups that have no intrinsic merit over and above their monetary value.

Gosh even the mods are insulting over here then!

Publicise is obviously different to advertise then I guess as that isn't allowed as we all know!

We have to break the rules to be disabled and I'm not the one insulting...but i've been called an ignoramous and a troll and a fecking something by others, so why not try reading the rules of k9!

Have no intention of insulting you,in any way,but do have a question.After reading your posts,I did what is prob the norm on here :b and went and checked your past posts.It became obvious that you are involved in rescued dogs.All credit to you :thumbsup:I did however notice that you had put the results up of a ped show in Manchester.I take it from this that you are not averse to whippet showing.My question is at ped shows they cater for pups,without trying to appear aggressive.Where do you think these pups come from?and the fact that they are in a puppy class means that they were bred with in that year,some possibly having close birth dates.Is there an issue with these too?

Good grief, you did check back a long way, I have shown my whippet twice! I got the results that people were asking for from the website that issues them.

I'm not involved in rescue other than posting for others on here

My whippet is my pet, who gets walked for at least 2 hours a day when i'm at work and a lot more the rest of the time.

I will not breed from my bitch, although i have 4 firm bookings now for the non existant litter, this is due to my concern about the over population of whippets in any shape or form, whether racers, show dogs or breeders in it for the dosh.

Just sad that the members on here have to insult and swear at those voicing concern - and that moderators back up and join in on these insults.

 

[wild whippies]

Of course there's a problem, just go on epups and look at whippets and how many come with KC papers.

 

[weathergirls]

hey meddling my bitch is on that list mother of my two little angels below Izzy and Duffy now 13 months old, after numerous requests and a great deal of thought I agreed to do a repeat mating, so I for one take issue with your unfounded insinuations

My view is that you are deliberatly inciting other posters and as such I'm not prepared to actively warn such insults. I can't see any moderators insulting you, unless of course you're a sad individual with nothing better to do than stir trouble or your so vain as feel that remark was directed at you alone.

You've voiced your concern and it seems clear you've nothing more to add except provoke long standing members. As such I request you refrain from posting on this topic or similar topics in this forum. Failure to adhere to this request will lead to suspension of your posting rights.

I'd like to remind all members regarding rules on insulting or personal attacks on other members.

Didn't take that long,just skipped through the headings untill I found that one.Can I ask another question then,have you voiced the same concerns on the ped sites?Because I like everyone else on here realise that to fill KC shows you have to either breed,or purchase a KC reg whippet.The fact that the matings have been listed on here has proberbly bought us to your attention.Perhaps if you look at ped whippets and add up all the matings you can find they would proberbly amount to more than our list.One last thing I must say is that,the fact that the matings have been quite openly listed,means nobody has anything to hide,and as such,even though i've not bred a non ped YET.I am proud to be associated with the people within our non ped circles :thumbsup: The fact that you have assumed we in non peds have no thought over the welfare of our dogs is very insulting,more so than any words posted on here

I have voiced this on pedigree showing sites yes, and got a similar slating

I have not been in the slightest bit personal, I have just stated that it was a worrying amount of pups - end of...I am entitled to my opinion, I didn't say any of the litters listed would be ill treated

Whippets already have a rescue problem and the more there are produced the bigger the problem will be

 

[peppermint lady]

tbh if you look at all the litters in pedigree racing that have either been born/due or matings that will take place this year...i expect it will be a simular number if not more.

show whippets i believe have a few litters between them...all looking for the one that will stand out in the show ring!

i for one will be having a litter from one of my girls this year, and like others i will try to ensure the best homes possible..

:luck: good luck with all forth coming litters and i hope some quality racing dogs come from them

its not just whippets that need rehoming from time to time.....just look at the situation with all the staffys that end up homeless...due to being the latest craze for yobs! i have yobs with said dogs that live over the road from me :rant:

I have not been in the slightest bit personal, I have just stated that it was a worrying amount of pups - end of...I am entitled to my opinion, I didn't say any of the litters listed would be ill treated

Whippets already have a rescue problem and the more there are produced the bigger the problem will be

last time i looked it was ALL BREED OF DOGS that had a rescue problem ps do you have someone doing the nightshift to help you with all them posts ???

The non ped community is a very small one and although we all fall out as people dp I can say hand on heart that usually it is because people are so passionate about their pets. I know that they are the first people to try and help with any welfare issues including all the collections that are done to help with expenses when there are racing accidents and all the people that help out with taking dogs to specialists and give up loads of time to help when needed. I dont think anyone minds concerned inquiry but they do object to uninformed critisism.

Finally I do not breed but for the record I have

Jaz 13yr afghan retired but still boss

Perry 6yr non ped still racing and loving it

Finlay 2yrs seriously injured at present (being helped with his care by non ped friend0

Teddy nearly 2yrs racing

Gus 1yr still making up his mind if he wants to race or not....his choice

Tony can you move the initial list onto a new post it would be handy to keep track of it without having to plough through this lot :cheers:

Meddling has decided not to post again today.

I don't mind a thread on the non ped rescue situation but perhaps this thread would be best back on topic.
