Are his dogs KC registered? Only on TWA none of his breeding have a registration number or acknowledged as being bred or owned by mb If as you say his dogs were "under the stick" he could run as a nomination without being a running member Y.I.S Leeview Quote Link to post

There were only three clubs in the UK coursing under the jurisdiction of the National Whippet Coursing Club. All whippets had to be be registered with The Kennel Club and must not exceed a height of 20 inches at the shoulder. The rules of the NWCC are based on the NCC rules for greyhounds with adjustments made to cater for the much smaller size of the whippet. The length of the slip (the law, or lead given to the hare) is shortened to a minimum of 35 yards (but is usually greater than this) and fewer points are awarded for the lead to the first turn. All whippet coursing under NWCC rules was strictly amateur with no prize money, betting or commercial sponsorship. Quote Link to post

tripletree 75 Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Its not what MB did in terms of breeding he took an old method of in breeding 3 times then outcrossing and then coming back in what's worrying is everyone else doing the same thing, no imagination or thought, breedings about improving not copying . There needs to be more outcrosses and different blood for the good of working whippets the gene pool will be too small. And the myth about Sooty Sam breeding not being bettered? I've got a Sooty Sam bitch who has never let me down but I've also got another whippet from different lines that's just as good and dare I say it even better. There does seem to be more people outcrossing with different lines and working different lines and this is what we need to move forward. MB breeds decent dogs from what I've experienced he's got his breeding methods about time others used their own imagination. Quote Link to post

MB breeds decent dogs from what I've experienced he's got his breeding methods about time others used their own imagination. thats the very trouble, there are far too many people with little or no knoledge of dogs\breeding that are trying to imitate M/B's breeding plan with little thought for the conciquences for the breed or the stock they are churning out selling the pups on the mythicle name "SOOTY SAM" recently ive seen inbred SS lines (NOT DIRECTLY FROM M/B ) of 23,24,even 25" at the shoulder, surely if a dog of that size is needed then a whippet/grey cross would be more suitable rather than breeding excessivly large whippets.

Totally agree with both posts here. I am hearing some scary diseases starting to pop up their ugly heads, due to un-experienced folk, trying to copy Mb and doing it wrong! Quote Link to post
fresh earth 47 Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Personaly anything over breed standard should be classed as a fault its far to comon to hear about peoples 23" whippets the breed should be small compact dogs of no more than 21". Also think its a disgrace some of the faults that are apearing down to the lack of real thought and research going into some breedings. Quote Link to post
