nothernlite 18,090 Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Worked Kittles whippet a fair bit, and I love watching her work, so much that I got a dog with whippet in it,, but only a cross with whippet in it, it`s still a lurcher. would not have a pure whippet for working, no point while theres lurchers available On a serious note. My whippet is my pride and joy. I absolutley adore the wee dog. But being honest for a tough, durable dog for flatout work, nobody can deny a lurcher is the best option. My lurcher is far faster than my whippet. But im sure i wont go long without a whippet in my life. I dont know if its just my whippet but the companionship and loyalty is phenominal. I personally wouldnt be the same without the wee dog. I agree,, and lucy is a wee sweetie as well. Like I say, enjoy watching them work, but the big collie x is the business in my book just you wait till your we beddy x starts doing the business and we will see if your saying that lol 1 Quote Link to post

BUT you would have had my thin skinned, no coat, weedy looking whippet in a heartbeat couldnt care less about her no being big, muscly or durable. shes got the heart of a lion, keen as fcuk and lives for working. shes no go the big breeding or the killer hunting traits but she does me. dont get me wrong. her faults are obvious and theres plenty of them but she wouldnt be her without them. and with what shes been through. im grateful that she runs at all. each time she comes back, full mouthed or empty handed. it makes no difference to me. she still get treated the same 2 Quote Link to post
