THIS SHOULD GET U ALL THINKING? WHAT IS YOUR IDEAL SIZE WHIPPET? WOULD IT BE A LIGHT, MIDDLE OR HEAVYWEIGHT? OR WHAT ABOUT A SCRATCH? AS I THINK U WILL ALL KNOW BY NOW I LIKE THE SCRATCH DOGS BUT THIS ISNT JUST BECOZ I HAVE TWO. I HAVE ALWAYS LIKE THE SCRATCH RACING AS I THINK DOGS RUNNING OFF LEVELS IS MORE EXCITING THAN DOGS GETTING YARDS START. JUST MY OPINION. THE PERFECT SIZE WHIPPET FOR ME WOULD BE A MIDDLEWEIGHT OF ABOUT 23 TO 27LB SIMPLY BECAUSE IF THEY ARE NOT FAST ENOUGH FOR OPENS THEY ARE THE IDEAL SIZE FOR HANDICAP RACING. WHERE AS THE LIGHTWEIGHTS OF 16 TO 20LB MAYBE A WEE BIT SMALL FOR HANDICAPS AND THE SCRATCH DOGS A WEE BIT TOO BIG. WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE IDEAL SIZE WHIPPET AND WHY? SHOULD MAKE AN INTERSESTING TOPIC. :* I KNOW DOGS OF ALL SIZES COMPETE AT HANDICAPS BUT I HOPE U GET MY POINT. A 16LB ER THAT DONT GO TO THE RAG WILL BE OK ETC .
