In my opinion it looks like a striker,best lamp i have ever had grand job.

Put it on a piece of string then tease the hell out of pup and get pup to pick up,at least pup cant bugger off with it.lol

Brilliant!People who dont rate whippets for working have never had one.always maintain had more injuries with bigger lurchers than i have had with the whippets. Here's to the very gamely,headbanger.

You need to fill me in more,there are different types of aggression. Pm me with more details,if necessary she can ring me.

Someone has already said Benzyl Benzoate,try Camrosa should get it off net. Could also be what your bedding dog on,if its the fields.Your not bedding on straw are you?

Basically keep it simple,ie name something that sounds nice ie say Fred can be made in to freddie,pups like things to sound daft pleasant. Keep yourself to one word commands ie name followed by command.If you said sit down to one of my dogs they would do a sit followed by a down.Obviously most commands are sit,down(put your body on ground,wait(until i give you another command,stay(stay where you are,off(dont jump on me furniture whatever,you shout down instead of off dog will get confused.Over(jump over this,under(under gates,wire etc,through get through this gap ie gate etc You can do away

You need to learn more about dog behavior,you are going to have some serious fights. Unfortunatley they are going to be caused by YOU! Please,please get some help and advice. Good luck.

If you train basics,sit,down,stay,NO! etc properly and dont confuse the dog changing words,or spoil dog by letting it do what it wants.Then you should'nt have to go to the extremes of some people ie horse whip,kicking dog or hitting it.A shake by the scruff of the neck,a dog can understand,rolling dog on to floor and holding it there saying NO! the dog understands. Hitting or kicking dog will just teach dog not to trust you,be afraid of you. Sorry i dont get off on an animal being afraid of me,thats why alot of dogs recall is bad,would you go to someone who hit and kicked you i think not. I

I think we could all give you enough info to sink a battleship.i will say count your placentas,and make sure you empty your bitch with oxytocin after whelping.More bitches have died because of infections and retained placentas,and dead pups. Research your subject really well.hopefully no complications and you will love experience. Good luck

A lurcher or whippet has a small stomach,fast metabolic rate. You are doing grand,you dont need any help.Well Done!

Health comes from inside out,weigh dog,worm dog then feed meat fish egg yolks plenty of pulped vegetables,dandruff can be caused by alot of things.Make sure dog frontline combi or advantage regular,dogs need more animal fat than we realise try getting ox heart feed with fat still on.If your dog lives inside could be caused by central heating, what you wash bedding in etc,outside bedding clean?Answers endless. Have kept black lurchers and whippets over 25yrs screwed up millions of times. Complete food always gave my dogs jacket problems so changed to barf diet. Good luck.

Heh! hows your dog bit better i hope! Let us all know what outcome was.

Seems a few people have had em,some one brought me one couple weeks old,terriers had had it. I noticed it had a broken leg,rehydrated it rang animal santuary and they took it away. Nice to know,we may hunt but we are not monsters. Incidentally i cant honestly say i think it is right to keep em. Will dig photo out,it was a cutie,a hissing cutie. They are not pets and i should imagine most of us have killed a few,if not alot. We are still killing em in Ireland it is not banned. But i dont kill babies,there is no sport in that.

Yep!i would be trying to get that jacket back.
