  1. he probably didnt mean any disrespect by saying it but i think hattons got some nerve saying this....mayweather and de la hoya are proven legends who have fought and beat the best over many years...who has hatton beat? a washed up kosta tsyu and a washed up ben tackie...when he moved up in weight for the big bucks he was made to look average by a very average fighter and quickly moved back down where he feels safe,and then struggles against a very limited opponent in urango....and next is likely to fight another opponent at a very late stage in his career in castillo... Hatton has been very w
  2. Being new to the hounds i have a few questions...1 to be getting on with is this...... Is their any visible difference(either in photos or in the flesh) between a small greyhound and a large whippet ? Ive seen some of these whippets upwards of 21/22 "...and seen some greyhounds down around 24 "...this only in pictures i should add ! Alternatively,if you had a grey/whippet 50/50 cross,would this be visibly different to either extremes of size of a pure grey or pure whippet ?
  3. hattons fight is around 2am....at 9/2 urango is a good bet...he,s unbeaten but hasnt fought in great company before...personally i think hattons habit of blowing right up between fights will catch up with him in the end,maybe tonight ...! hope not but he looked real drawn at the weigh in,the other fella looked good.
  4. hope im not jumping out the frying pan into the fire here im not an impulse shopper so i,ll hang around and ask questions and try and learn before making bad decisions. thanks to all for the help and advice so far.
  5. "gratitude and honour" .....theres some words you dont see much nowadays,especially around the dog scene ! jigsaw im afraid you are looked at as old fashioned and past it nowadays if you have morals....todays new breed of dogman think they have made achievements when,and only when....they no longer need to work for a living !
  6. It was a joke yes,sorry as it seemed to fly over your head,i wouldnt have a clue about the testicle problem as im brand new to this breed. Many thanks for the helpful replies,seems some decent people involved with this breed which is going to make a great change and be so refreshing from another breed i wont mention where the bullshit lies and egos is just becoming too much to take anymore. I repeat what others have said these look some fine animals pictured above...i like the look of that black dog,this is still a kc reg dog? My only worry with kennelling one of these was that they just lo
  7. Thanks again to those who have replied Am i right in thinking "laguna" or "nimrodel" are kennels as opposed to actual bloodlines? what i mean is,in pit bulls for instance...a jeep dog is a line named after a dog....a mayfield dog is named after a man who specialises in a certain family of dogs....etc etc Does this apply to these lines or are the names simply the kennels who bred them regardless of the family/line of dog they are from. At a guess what is the average size of a coursing type whippet. The outdoor thing i dont see being an issue with a nice warm heatlamp so ive got my head roun
  8. many thanks again for the replies...would somebody be able to point me the right way into doing a spot of research on these lines....im interested in a kc racing/coursing type if possible...what are the lines called? where can i found out about them ? what is the average size of a racing/coursing type...some ive seen seem real delicate..but then again i havent seen many. thanks for all the help.
  9. many thanks for the replies chaps...whilst on the subject,would someone kindly tell me if a kc reg whippet can still work/race...or is it like most other breeds where the working ability of kc dogs has been ruined. do 100 per cent whippets make good working dogs as opposed to crosses... sorry for all the questions,just im looking into fresh interests and would like to have half an idea what its all about before jumping in feet first...thanks again for replies.
  10. Could anyone tell me if it is ok to keep whippets kennelled outdoors and do they need any special conditions in winter,heat lamp etc ?...been told they do not adapt well to outdoor living..anyone got an opinion?
  11. wow....its real good to see people speaking from the heart without some prick jumping up screaming " racism" it may be stating the obvious but for many years now ive thought it best to stop voting for parties that are too frightened to end this shit...these people come here because my and your country allow them to,even welcome them...my and your government will not do anything to stop it as we fear being classed racially prejudice after all,we want to be everyones best friends dont we now this might get me stones hurled my way but i,ll take the risk.....this country needs some seriou
  12. Very sorry to hear this news mate and wish your aunt well...hopefully she will bounce back. This is just another example of what happens when you let the shit and scum of the world into your country to be made welcome....let in shit and scum and thats exactly what you get...its a disgusting shame but the situation described above is something we are all going to have to get used to,and if we dont like it thats tough...they call it " intergration "...might not have spelled it right but i know what it means and like f**k am i intergrating with shit and scum! Best Wishes to the lads aunt.
  13. whatever happened to a ref playing advantage? had that happened in the centre circle people would have called it a bad decision for bringing play back...these refs want to be celebs nowadays and know a controversial decision will get the press look into his life and he,ll no doubt get a few bob out of it,look at premiership refs,nobody could name one 10 years ago,now we know there first names !!! cant help thinking henry cost arsenal the game last night,2 chances as easy as he had all season both would have killed the game off,if a defender stuck it in his own net he would cost his team the g
  14. fortunes always hiding, ive looked everyywhere, im forever blowing bubbles, pretty bubbles in the air. only just got home! what a day and what a night....names written all over that cup just like back in 1980.. this time last year all you could hear on the terraces at west ham was " pardew out pardew out pardew out !" mad the way a year can change in football eh lads.... as for england manager,as long as he,s english i couldnt give a bollock ! never know might end up with some english players back in the premiership after that...after all,us english teams can still do it ! come on y
  15. sounds like some of you lads need to get a bit more familiar with treating a dog at home,especially if your working them...230 quid for some stitches apart from serious stuff or tests where a lab will be needed most things you can do at home with a half decent med kit and a little knowledge.
