paulus 26 Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Hey guys Is there any real traits that make a whippet a proper Laguna??? The chap I bought my dog from claimed she had some laguna blood in her what you think? (she goes bezerk for anything on four legs) Cheers It's just a whippet I suspect, I would've surprised if it was from the Laguna kennel. What's the prefix? Just go to the whippet archives and findout when the last Laguna bred dog was in the pedigree. But to be honest all this Laguna stuff really is a big bulging bag of excrement, just enjoy your whippet for what it is, not for some sales chat a breeder told you. Quote Link to post

Marvel 469 Posted January 21, 2019 Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 Whats the best line to get a pup from now? please don't say worker to worker lol 1 Quote Link to post
Moocher71 4,049 Posted January 22, 2019 Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 Most whippet pups will work if anufe is put in front of them. kc or none ped you pick your pup and do your best by it ,at end of the day they plenty of good working whippets out there that don't come from Laguna or well known kennels .forget the names and get the pup you like and I don't think you b disappointed .forget overs legends and make your own. atb 2 Quote Link to post
jeemes 4,444 Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 I think Im right in saying that most of the whippets competing in coursing were also show dogs and pets. No pedigree on earth is worth a shite unless you know or get reliable info about the dogs in it but you have to start somewhere and as with all dogs blood will out' as they say. get a good one and breed from it haha its simple. 2 Quote Link to post

A kc or working pedergree is only as truthfull as person who wrote it.folk on both sides of the fence are breeding for money and care nothing about welfare of a breed or type. 1 Quote Link to post
