some good pics of the grews , saw several crossed dollie type real good dogs some were a bit small but others just [bANNED TEXT] for the game good dogs by any mans standard if it wasnt for the grew wouldnt have the dogs i have about me at times so can only praise them for being one part of a good run ning dog and working lurcher

 

i got dvd charploski was good enough to send up to me ,,,,there was 1/4collie type on there that did well on racing track,,,and maybe othere thing,s,,,the dvd if anything was a good insight back then ,on how well they looked after there dog,s , the betting side out for mooch , and the passion they had for there dogs well being,,,,the women did take it abit far on program treating them like there babies lol,,,they still do that 2day lol it was at rising sun , the training , the feeding ,racing the people back then ect ect ,,,if anything good tips for any young running dog owner,s on how they get there dog in condtion/feeding/the time spent on a pup & and if u put in the time ull reap the rewards,,wotever the breed

 

i would put dvd on but my mate is coping it,,,that was 3 months ago,,,( hint hint ,,,as i think he,ll be reading this )

 

found this pic off a dog called zenda,,,i think might have somthing else in it,,,but breeding cant be found on data base,,,the days when nonpeds had maybe off abit on this and that,,,,but came under the rule ( smooth coat & whippet/grew like in apperance , and could run at track

One of the greatest brood bitches in the history of Non-Ped Whippet racing was a bitch called "Young Lucy"; she was mated to various sires; Biko, Blue Fawn and I think, Good as Gold. She threw many Racing Champions and some of the best Scratch Dogs ever ! She was variously described as being Collie/Grey, and Whippet x Collie/Grey; but one thing is certain; she had pleanty Collie in her !! I bought a pup from A. Pickup in 1972, by "Darly Fly" a Bilko dog, and out of "Susan", (Blue Fawn x Young Lucy). Apart from being a top class racer, he was also one of the best "Lurchers" I've had, until he met an untimely death, being shot by a 'keeper while out hare coursing ! So, for sure, way back in the Non-Peds is a few other breeds apart from Whippet and Greyhound !

 

Cheers.

YOU stop trying to start on a argument in a so far non argument topic (so far )

 

in alot off ways u have apoint yes they were sort off lurcher,s before they were longdog,s and highly tuned for speed (just whips and greys-- but thats not a bad thing,,)

 

ive been invited out in 2weeks with my grews,,,,ill take my old white one ,,,and they might be a few more recent pic,s off him then ,,,ill take my pocket cam corder with me ,,,but iam sh@te with it but ill try,,,,if there,s game to be had on the day,,,ill see if i can get few pic,s up,,,,iam one off them non ped racers that aint shy ,,,off giving my racers a go at game ,,,far from it ,,,its in my blood ,,there was 3 gamekeeper,s in my family (we were not the best ,but its in our blood i,e hunting )

 

(pll,s with grews dont arugue,,,,as they are ,,,what they are ,,,quick take off (rockets on speed ) some fair good ,,,some meet a early grave ,,,but they do what it say,s on tin,,,,,go for it,,,and not the lack off trying ( race or hunt )
