shaaark 10,745 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 VERY underated dogs, don't listen to alot of the complete twaddle written on here by people with no patience or sense to bring a dog on of any breeding! Get the whippet, great dogs 1 Quote Link to post

FUJI 17,287 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 I always like the drive and oomph that a Whippet brings to the table,great wee dogs that can put many bigger dogs to shame out in the field..yes some are small,fine boned not worth a wank types but if you do your research and get one from proper working,proven lines then you'll have fun a plenty...like was said earlier don't believe all you read about them being no good for nothing on here..plenty of owners whos word is as good as gospel speak highly of them...I'd prefer to listen to the likes of Woodga,Moll and plenty of others over a few crabbers any day of the week...go for it and have fun!!! 4 Quote Link to post
bryson 562 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 i spoke to moll at the morpeth hunt a couple of year back and she said the dog was very slow to mature im glad the dogs turned round for her Quote Link to post

bryanm45 787 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) Great little dogs, started off with one, was so impressed got another one of the same stamp, great ferreting and lamping dogs, don't attract any attention to you, be carefull what you put in front of them, they will chase ANYTHING that runs.

bryson 562 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 as regards to yapping take your time with it and let it be a pup and be sensible when entering the dog pick the write runs for it no silly slips and you should be ok mate Quote Link to post
