Sonny Brindle 2 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Here's mine. 19"TTS, he'll be four in November. Mainly used for lamping. Quote Link to post
lurchergrrl 1,441 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Your dogs are excellent to look at .... really really like them Not necessarily a 'worker' by most of your standards, but I take him out to play as often as I can: Nimrodel lines, IKC registered, 21.5" He's a big strapping thing, a lot beefier than I was expecting. He's out mooching an awful lot, jumps, swims, turns on a sixpence, and has bags of energy. And,(knock wood, he's not had a scratch so far, despite running head first into a gate when he was lamping once - and regularly going arse over teakettle on rough ground Quote Link to post
vanquo 2 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Some great pics in this thread. I've got an 8.5 month Whippet I'm bringing on at the moment. Seems a decent enough hound so far, just under 22 TTS. Quote Link to post
