  1. I recently got rid of my Mark3m on Ebay, I hated it, the screeching noise did my head in. If you can make a new mark type 1 I would also buy.
  2. TC, I know exactly what your going through, last Friday my young Whippet Pip raised a Rabbit in a clump of reeds, it made it too a sandy bury, where Pip caught it at the entrance, he instantly fell over and I found him unconscious. I carried him home, drove to my local Vets who had him xrayed, two broken vertebrae in his neck. Rushed him to Glasgow Vet Hospital, where the next day he was operated on for four hours, unfortunately he developed internal bleeding, and was pts. He was coming on in strides, not saying he would have been a great Whippet, but he was good enough for me. H
  3. Theres always a few on Ebay, they all make decent money, and all are sold, Says it all.
  4. When I was in China, I had a look in fishing tackle shops, hoping to see some for sale, but never did. And no chance with my Scottish accent, trying to explain to the shop owner if he knew where i could buy one.
  5. My old Whippet x Bedlington Bitch always ran silent, apart from chasing in a wood, where she would give a few yips, but not a scream, never bothered me, and took a serious amount of Rabbits and Pheasant with this Bitch. She ran this way till she died at nine.
  6. I have put this diet up a few times, as my Whippet appears to be doing well on it, I do feed raw as he seems to prefer it, maybe as the Breeder weaned the pups on it. 1lb of raw mince Beef,or Lamb,or Chicken from Durham Animal Feeds, or 1lb raw Rabbit, frozen for three weeks, to try and kill tape worms, because Rabbit has little fat, when feeding it, I add a knob of melted Lard.Once a week i replace meat with a tin of oily fish, Sardines etc. A good handful of Gain 20 percent protein,some appear to feed 28 percent, but ive been told if feeding meat, this would be too much protein. Had
  7. BPR are you sure there is no difference with the ingredients between Gain 28 and The Gain puppy. What is the price difference between the two.
  8. i feed raw rabbit, especially now, so I can empty my freezer,then I will fill it up with meat from DAF. Its probably to much bother for most on here, but im retired, plenty time on my hands, I skin and gut, i then take meat of the bone, this is frozen for three weeks, what meat is left on the carcass is also frozen for the ferrets. the dog gets about 1lb of raw rabbit, and a good handful of Gain 20% veg and vits. because rabbit, contains very little fat, i add a knob of melted lard to the meal.
  9. Do you think it would have made any difference to the ban, if the coursing Greyhounds had been run muzzled?
  10. Im the same, have a snipped hob, but after he has done the biz, i separate him, as has been said, they are sore on the Jills.
  11. He has all the Glen Water DVDS, Thats where I got mine.
  12. Thanks for your offer. That's a shame as we were down by Castle Douglas just 2 weeks ago getting a puppy! Cheers You lot should be like me, use the bus pass, distance no object.
  13. They start at the speed it runs, but you use the button on the controller to stop and start and that slows it down.
  14. One Grahams Lure Machine cost £130 new. Only used a few times, carrying frame has been added along with new battery. excellent working condition, pick up only because of weight. £100.

  16. If you take membership of TWWF pm Tony Dent and Tripletree, they have vast knowledge of Whippet lines,and have lots of info on the coursing lines and Laguna.
