I had a Whippet, was out one really cold day, at times it was coming down sleet, and were waiting for bolters, and yes he was shivering, but when he had a bolt he came to life, and caught a few. 1 Quote Link to post

Big bald beautiful 1,231 Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Could see a first cross been handy but many are just bred down grews,mine were skinny whippet sized and truthfully not big enough for what I needed. Quote Link to post
alan81 110 Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 I had a blue whippet/hound bitch 22" tts a few years back she was a great little dog lamping rabbits. the most I got with her was 17 when only half fit and that's a lot for around here. she would hit the ditch hard and even caught rabbits after I turned the lamp off [ her party trick ] she caught 2 hares as well in small fields. I had another black whippet/hound bitch 21" tts also very good on rabbits but what shocked me with her was she could take a fox quicker than most bullxs! true. 1 Quote Link to post
