Hi there,

William is a show greyhound and they do tend to be bigger than the greyhounds that most people think of . He is 30 inches to his shoulder and being not quite 2 1/2 he is still maturing and has still to fill out more.

When I first had William I to thought they're not much bigger than whippets my biggest whippet Owen is 21 inches but it is not just hieght it is also length William's coat was made for him as it is 32 inches from kneck to tail he is not quite that long but as he is still maturing so I would prefer it to be big now

This year will be William's second year at Crufts last year he came 3rd in his class and was beaten by the top winning youngsters in the country. Needless to say we were pleased with this as it was William's 2nd champ show having qualified at his first champ show and the winning dog has became a champion not long afterwards

Are you going to Crufts on the Friday ? It you are please don't be shy come and find us then you can meet Wiliam for yourself

Helen and William (dad says I'm a cross with a donkey)

I'll be there! I'll be doing the normal, walking around thinking 'that person looks familiar, I've seen that dog before' :wacko:

forgot to add

you'll most likely find william around the whippet benches we tend to keep away from the greyhound lot until we need to be there
