pernod 466 Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 i had a kc whippet took fox on its own every week was bit 2 much for it tho my mate see it do it bid me good money so i sold it 2 him and every pup hes breed out of it dose the same Kent leg end how many foxes are we talking about here?? what weight and tts was the whippet?? And more to the point who the f@ck puts a whippet to foxes every week, occasionally if you bump into them lamping is cool, but puting one one on them weekly is a wee bit stupid. Where are these pups based that are all doing foxes single handed?? Get some pics up if you can, to we see the measure of these dogs, because it is quite a claim.

woz 260 Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 i wouldnt bother,you stand a decent chance of sickening the dog to the lamp altogether to much fight for a small dog like a whippit Quote Link to post
micckey 106 Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 while i like whippets i just think this is a sales gimmick: ive seen loads of foxing dogs pre ban and never saw a whippet used once as a out and out fox dog... a good big one always beats a very good little one...

johnny 2 367 Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 i wouldnt bother,you stand a decent chance of sickening the dog to the lamp altogether to much fight for a small dog like a whippit I agree with what you are saying.But not all whippets are small dogs. 1 Quote Link to post
rob284 1,682 Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 If a terrier can kill a fox why can`t a whippet? a terrier has much stronger jaw power and more stronger overall, terriers punch above there weight. Quote Link to post
