B.P.R 2,798 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 I've got a 19" ped whippet bitch. Accident prone as they come, keen as feck but a total liability and when I watch her run my hearts in my mouth and I'm constantly cringing. She's only 11month(almost), broke both her back legs and after racing at kirkaldy has injured her back leg......... Wouldn't change her for the world though Quote Link to post

chartpolski 24,583 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 If it's a Ped Whippet you are after, have a word with Mally, off here; he has a dog, Sagar, who looks the real deal.... never seen him, but I've seen his dam, Vixen, work many times, day and night, and I've never seen a better Ped Whippet working ! Have a craic with the lad, he'll show you the dogs working, and make your own mind up. Cheers. 1 Quote Link to post

We were out almost every hour both daylight and night!!!. That was September and you were still eating the stuff you took back at easter!!. Good craic too especally when the rozzers followed us home, oh and the pissed farmer playing rambo with his baseball bat!!!. Midnight, i don't think you live too far from me, your welcome to pop over for a look at the dogs and a chat. I do have some grassland that i can run this time of year so you can see the dogs run a few. Vixens 20" and 32lbs, Sagars 21" and 34lbs I like this size as they retrieve well and they can graft that little bit longer without losing the pace and agility. Quote Link to post

Duck, Goose, Rabbit, Hare, not tomention the veggies !! You said I should have brought my rod as well !! Happy days mate !! But as far as working Ped Whippets is concerned, I don't have much experience, but that Vixen bitch would put many Lurchers to shame ! No Bull !! Cheers. Quote Link to post
