    Patley bridge in yorkshire?Cant imagine your area is any different,certainly havent seen anywhere in your county I wouldnt feel confident in running a dog.Give me a few days,I have some negatives of my first dogs up in the loft,let me get hard copy from them,whippet types that we all had as kids,I have a decent pic of a few rabbits they caught over a couple of nights on really hard ground in northumberland,never got a nick,scratch,nor mark on them,they werent pure whippets,just sold as whippets But an ounce of practical is worth a ton of theory

    Which part of the north was the guy from who sent his whippet back up?
  4. mackem
    Bedfordshire was never exactly renown for its arduous terrain,ask your mate with the frail fragile whippet to take you north,try parts of yorkshire and northumberland,its a little different
  5. mackem
    The terrain in your area artic is no better and certainly no worse than the north of england mate,thats a fact
  6. mackem
    I think the only people who can answer the original posts are those who have owned whippets and worked them around the british isles for several seasons to evaluate their performance

    The whippet in the Pic I posted was shaun Wilsons baldrick,very good rat dog,better at rabbits though,I think he was tiny 17 inch?He was as good a retriever as most lurchers

    A few of my mates had racing whippets when I was a kid,seen them work around northern england,even took one lamping to Caithness once,they performed admirably otherwise they wouldnt have been kept,I have seen a few whippets take 20+ bunnies in a nights lamping,not a huge amount but decent enough for tiny dogs

    Machines depreciate rapidly,my local detecting shop is only a mile away,he has a decent array of used machines at affordable prices because detectorists are like fishermen,always wanting the next models,you can get a sovereign used with 8 inch coil for a couple of hundred quid

  23. mackem
