    think he means saluki/deerhound back to a greyhound Oh, OK... but surely as soon as more than two breeds are in the mix, the term "first cross" becomes redundant ? Cheers. maybe he just posted wrong mate I'm probably just being pedantic, mate ! Cheers.

    How can you get a "first cross" Saluki/Deerhound X Greyhound ? Cheers.

    Its not a whippet though is it.The old boys i grew up around would never have tried to pass a near pure greyhound off as a non ped whippet. As I said earlier, some tracks up here, years ago, didn't care if your dog was a Whippet, Greyhound or Lurcher, as long as it fit in the trap. I, personaly, think the BWRA sold it's soul when it raised the wheight limit from 32lb to 55lb !! For gods sake, smaller Greyhounds have won the Waterloo Cup !! I think they should have kept the 32lb limit for all racing . That would have made people think twice about breeding 3/4 Greyhounds. If a dog made the

    So he's basicaly a Greyhound ? Nothing wrong with that, we tried for years to get the Greyhound speed into the Whippet size! I raced an unregistered Greyhound bitch at the Whippet tracks in the 70's; she was about 23" and 40lb.... wouldn't look out of place at all now, not with the insane 55lb limit the BWRA has ! Cheers.

    Sorry, but if you read back, this prick came on the topic and posted something that had nowt to do with the topic !! He ruins many topics ! I'll refrain from replying to this topic again Sorry again. Cheers.

    So more bullshit !! You accused LDR of running off with the money, it's still all in the records on here !! You know he didn't do it,but you still won't apologise !! It didn't seem like a wind up at the time, and the lad hasn't been back on a site since !! You like fair play ??? You wern't involved in the comp in any way, yet you slagged the comp and called the organiser a thief !! IS THAT FAIR PLAY ??? You are a prick, people may think you are just a jovial buffoon, but when you ruin a competition, you arn't even in, and call the organiser a thief, then you are just a c**t !

    Whin; whenever you reply to my posts, you never admit you slagged the competition, slagged the organiser, and accused him of stealing the money !! All untrue, as everyone knows, yet you never apologised !!! You said you would run the next one, so LDR dropped out and left it to you, but you didn't do it, and made, and still make, some pathetic excuses why you didn't run it !! Man up and admit you were wrong to slag the comp and lie about the organiser and bottled out of running your own competition !!

    Are you saying the vet is a waste of time ? Or the needle was a waste of time ? I'd say that people who keep dogs and bitches and can't manage them are a waste of time ! Cheers.

    The lads from Hawick come down to Westerhope and the Rising Sun tracks, Westerhope is in the west of Necastle and the Rising Sun is in the east of Newcastle. Not a great lot of dogs, but you would be made very welcome ! Cheers.

    Birddog, there has been two THL Lamping Competitions; there wasn't a third becase a very small minority, including Whin, slagged the comp and the organiser so much, that he decided it wasn't worth the abuse to run another one ! Whin said HE would run the next one, and promised all sorts of things........ Of course, it didn't come off, because Whin, as usual, was all talk !! So don't hold your breath waiting for Whin to organise "some sort of working trial" !! He'l talk a whole load of nonsense about Coyotes, Lobsters, D.Slieight, Kizzy, etc... but nothing will come of any competition !! Believ

    And what exactly has that statement got to do with an otherwise very entertaining post about RACING Whippets ??? Cheers.

    Bob, I have an old dairy from 1972, and I kept records of my matches. I ran Rch Kinky Boy, getting 3 yards off him with a pup out of Red Baron for £74, I won, and they wanted a re-match for the same money and yards... I won again ! LOL ! Then I got greedy and gave Bunny Girl 2 yards for £50 and lost...... but still came out on top !! I don't think they have match racing now for money, but it was a big thing in the 60's & 70's. Cheers.

    Indian Joe was a tremendous dog, about 3/4 Greyhound-1/4 Whippet.He is in the blood of some great Saluki X coursing dogs. Cheers.

    Marretta; I think the term these days is "ripped" !! Cheers.

    Smaller weaker pups can turn out to be the best/strongest out of a litter Thats a fallacy. Usually when a runt is born, it stays the runt ! It's only people who buy them or take them on that think they turn out well ! It maybe 100/1 or 1000/1 0r 10000/1 that a runt turns out best/strongest in a litter, but the VAST majority of runts stay that way.....runts; no matter how much you love or nurture them . Cheers.

    I THOUGHT ur fav would have been ,,,i think marretta scratch a fawn scratch racer,,,long body ,,,unsure about spelling rich,,,,,undeafeted 72 races,,,they dog were more famous than football stars 2day ,in there local area ( i think) ,,,,prize money in the scratch racing back then could be as much as £100 to £ ,,,,,heat winners got £1.50 ,,,,bearing in mind ,,,50p could buy u the best leather lead and collar for yer dog,,,,and 2 bob which i think was 10p could feed yer dog in the best meat for a week but i wasnt around then,,,,but you were rich,,,,is it true ?????

    No arguing there mate, non peds are probably 5-10yds infront of a good pedie whippet over 150 yds. I have been to Old hall non ped club with my pedies the last few winters to give thm a run, they give me a 5yd handicap and I never beat them. When I was Handicapper at Coxlodge W.R.C. we had two Pedigree Whippets running with the Non-Peds, Silver Fox and Silver Birch. They allways sat of the top mark, 21 yards, and I can't ever remember them winning a heat. Recently, there has been the odd Ped coming to Westerhope track, and the times they do mean they would get the top mark, but would ha

    I ran (non-Ped) Whippets back in the 60's; there was any amount of tracks in the North East then. Some had a strict 21" limit, some said the dogs must be "smooth coated and of Whippet like appearance". The Rising Sun W.C. had both these stipulations. Other clubs such as Seaton Burn and Coxlodge Clubs, basicaly said if your dog fitted the trap, it could run ! There was dogs fron 18" smooth coated to 23" rough coated in some litters !! I had a dog, Blue Prince, who could pass for a large Pedigree Whippet, (21" & 36lb) and in his litter were a bitch 18" and a bitch 24" and some with wiry coa

    Just been having a look at Penny's pedigree; the nostalgia came flooding back !! LOL !! On her Whippet side; I've had pups out of Red Barron, Haymaker, Young Lucy, and a couple more, this was WAY back, mind ! And on her Greyhound side, I can see many simalarities to my Deer X's Greyhound side. Good Luck with the pups ! Cheers.
