Hi all im new here im Jeff of Pennymeadow whippets i just wondered if there are any whippet owners on board & if so what their owners do with the whippets eg.Work/race/Lure course/show.
Hello. I have a whippet. He's a black one, called Red. To be honest he is just a pet but he goes running twice a day and i think he'd course if i trained him too.. he's lovely.
I have two, they are pets really but I love to see them catch rabbits out in the fields. Hoping to have a litter out of my younger bitch at some point. They come to work with me so they are proper farm dogs during the day and snuggle on the sofa in the evening!
My mum is a registered breeder - her stud is Notabene - she has 4 at the moment. 3 bitches and the gorgeous Hugo, her stud dog. However, two of her bitches are retired from breeding and are just pets and the other bitch is still too young so she's taking a break.
I have always had whippets....since I met OH as he used to course his lurchers and introduced me to whippets.....all mine past and present are rescues...fresh from the track.
I have always had bigger chunkier ones...but my litle blue one.....is well..little
Here's my boy Finn, being shown by the lady who owns his grand mohter and bred his father. We bought him from a ad for whippet pups, but it turns out he isn't quite pure bred... and he's just under 23" so far too big to be a whippet!
He's just won Reserve Champion under 23" at the SW Supreme (second pic down) which is very exciting for us. His mother's lines are unknown, father is Moretonia. http://www.k9community.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=50960
Showing isn't his thing really, he likes watching telly
