ferret_man_09 0 Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 (edited) as above this is always that i have wanted to do since young. my grandad used to do it many years ago when we was working down the pit. if there is anyone on the site that races whippets or can offer me any help or advice of how to get into it i would be very greatful. also info of what lines of dog to look into and the average price to spend. i am also doing more research on the net but i think that if you speak to somebody with personal experiance then you will gain more from it!! and would be even better if there was anyone in the staffordshire area or close so that we could meet up and have a chat many thanks Edited August 27, 2009 by ferret_man_09 Quote Link to post
