Not a bad dog but recently suffered some health problems so now he gets to do as he pleases.(retired)

That dogs nicely proportioned Matt, nice shape too, just shows you how a pic can throw you off as i'd have said it was much bigger than 22".

[mattyg 1,862]

I'd convinced myself he was bigger aswell but the tape never lies! Unfortunately just had a perineal hernia repaired and it's really knocked him sideways amongst other things. Had one or two dodgy moments with him but on the whole a good honest dog. Very very loyal and grumpy as feck! Lol

My bitch lives out works well with other dogs, wary of strangers but good with kids.

Is Craig still breeding??

Not spoke to him in a few years, got a few numbers for him but not sure of his situation.

I think he and his mrs were more into whippets as they were on here as whippetlady many moons ago.

Thanks, the sire of mine was a half cross from Yorkshire and the dam was a black track greyhound of Craigs. When I went there he had whippets,a handy looking wheaten whippet, and a couple of sapling wheaten whippet greys

[mattyg 1,862]

There's a chance the saplings were from the same litter as mine possibly. He didn't seem in the greatest health when I visited so not sure how he may be 9 years on. Nice bloke though and always made you welcome, seemed to know his stuff even gave me my diesel money back when I collected Murphy. Tidy bitch by the way!

Matt

P.S. I tried breeding mine twice but quite frankly he didn't have a clue(gay). Don't know much about A.I. So left it at that.

I went in October by train got out fk me was it cold, he met me at the station in shirtsleeves went to his talked dogs paid my money, then his Mrs brought out the hot pork rolls and chips I could hardly walk after. The saplings had the same sire as mine if I remember rightly.

[mattyg 1,862]

I picked mine up in the July if I remember rightly, seems he had access to some good Wheaten blood and capitalised on it.

Mustn't complain I'm happy with what I got. Just good to know others are aswell !
