I'm sure Mally won't mind me putting up a pic of his bitch, Vixen; the best working K.C. Whippet I've seen, in more than 40 years of working running dogs; Mally will give you the breeding, but I'm sure she is line bred Sooty Sam on her dams side. I saw her start on the lamp, and become a class worker. She works with ferrets and I have also seen her on bigger stuff, albeit accidently !!

 

 

Cheers.

I have fond memories of whippets form 35 years ago [bANNED TEXT] they were the pot fillers of the workingman and not just bred for profit like a lot are today and not sold at a workingmans price's atvb

I can't speak for Mally, but I'm sure she will be bred from; and knowing Mally, he will have worked out what is the best stud dog for her. The stud dog will have to come up to HER standard, which is very high ! I've worked my Lurcher bitch along side this whippet, and can only say...... I would have her in my kennel !!

Cheers.

Yes mate, the dog that took it was "Blue Prince", bred from "Blue Boy X Zarwood", a couple of weeks later he was Runner Up in the "British Open" Whippet Championship, at Wallsend Track. He was a far better hare dog than a racing dog, but still won a few on the track !! It was different in those days, a dog ran and worked!!
