Ostly just a pure whippet father to the whirrier but my daughter also has the brother to the whippet and the brother to the whirrier but that one is a different kettle of fish, good length on him and a bit quicker than mine also a saluki lurcher plus I might aswell say before I get pulled up again about it an Italian greyhound that thinks it's a full size greyhound

I can call them off a hot scent but as said once sighted they only have tunnel vision to catch

No problem with stamina on mine but can have selective hearing, needs a stern voice at times

This is mine (been on before though) border/ Lakeland whippet back to pure whippet

As I said never had a problem with mine

It's not the cold as much with mine it's the wind he doesn't like,as for being housetrained mine has never done anything in the house and we have female chihuahuas inside aswell but they hate the Italian , my missus makes coats for mine but he keeps getting them of while he is mooching about how the hell he managed I don't know it's a wonder he never got hung up with them,he lost 2 in two weeks but never to be found again as they were realtree camo ones ha ha, more than likely to get critiqued about him again though

For all they say about them been fragile I can well believe some specimens I've seen shivering little wrecks of show bred shite( even though mine is lol) have a look at them lure coursing on YouTube in Germany over roughshod fields I was amazed at them , he is going over a pure bedlington when she's ready.

It catches them

I have a one in the house they are mental, metabolism is to high in these dogs, but as it will not stop in when I go out ,it has been coming out for about a year and I have let it run with the cocker it has followed him in what he does an d it hunts up very well it has a very good nose on it and will find game itself and is about % whistle trained and as said they will run all day loves to be with the whippets and the lurchers
