I think it would be terrific, if, we the home of the Whippet were able to put the same thing on but I dont think we have the  organizational  skills of the Americans or the desire to get it together which is a shame. Full credit to the A.W.C, the planning etc that must go in to this event must be immense. Im looking forward to Atlanta.Nicky

Yes Nicky I am so looking forward to Atlanta, we are going to have a busy year as we also have the World show, so lots of new whippets to see and judge.

Just had an email from Angie Diehl Moxi's owner, she took 11,000 photos at the Nationals so Ewhippetzine is going to have lots of lovely pictures to look at.

Yes it is wonderful, more pictures by the day, it would be wonderful if we had something like that here, well we have got our National on Sunday, that is of course that Roger hasn't made the cock up that he made a welks, entries still sitting in the schedule.

The top twenty is now up on ewhippetzine and it is just wonderful. A BIG well done to Lesley at least we can claim you as one of ours from this side of the pond who kept the flag flying for us. Hope to see you at N.E.W.S again this year.

Saved a lot of money but the weekend was planned and we were doing News as well, no good dragging Roger north for a open show. It was very much last thing when he could not find the passes, then he wouldn't be able to would he.

Thanks Patsy will have another look.

I have been busy on one of my other projects, which is tracing my family tree, so have not been on either forums much the last couple of days. :sweating:

:cheers: Wendy, keep up the excellent work :thumbsup: Have to agree a lovely site, anyone here fancy doing the same?

 

[UKUSA]

You know Annie thats a wonderful idea. We certainly have enough talented people , clever with that type of thing and some great photographers amongst us plus enough people of long standing in our breed who could contribute articles or do interviews. I can think of three people who could get it off the ground though I hasten to add Im not one of them.

Seriously I do think this idea should be pursued and I agree there is a vast pool of informative people out there who could contribute and we have some great photographers too so surely there are a few knowledgeable ones who could set this up as a business project?

Like you Nicky, not me I hasten to add as my IT skills are not that advanced :- " but I am sure there is someone out there up to the task. :thumbsup: So come on lets promote the UK Whippet

Like you and Nicky Annie I think it would be a wonderful idea, I am hopeless on a computer as well. There must be someone out there.. Now I have heard rumbles, and they would be more than capable, I wish they would come out and say they will do it before someone else jumps in.

I have spoken to Dawn and we are thinking of doing something along these lines in the autumn/winter. Obviously, it will take a huge amount of planning and work before we can launch anything but we have been talking about it for a while. We shall, of course, want articles of interest from all aspects of Whippet ownership, showing, lure coursing, racing, agility etc. We also hope to have a kind of "one stop" whippet shop, for everything sighthound. Anyone wishing to submit an article please email us at contactwhippetsrus@googlemail.com. That way we will have a nice lot ready for launch.

Edited to change contact email

You clever things!

If Jo or I have anything to add, which you think might be of value or interest to anyone then we would of course do something.

How exciting!

The design and maintenance of a website like that would not be that difficult to do for anyone competent at that sort of thing. Of course the gathering of relevant info would be the thing. :thumbsup:
