peterhunter86 8,627 Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 My pup gets loads of attention of all types of people and I'd say 8 out of 10 say that's a nice wippet..... now I'm not being funny and nothing against wippets but feck off wippet he's a bloody lurcher. Today whilst on a walk someone once again said lovely wippet which I correct straight away and they followed up by saying he will do well showing my response was not fussed about the show side of things just as long as he catches a rabbit or 2 she was disgusted by that and went on to tell me how wrong it is and how such a sweet dog shouldn't be made to that. I explained they enjoy it and how I can't make him chase down a bunny it's just in there nature to do so which I was then told no it's not people like you train these poor dogs to do these barbaric actives for blood not sport. That was the end of our heart to heart as I walked off. Have any of you come across this before? I've come across Antis saying they would like 5 minutes alone with me and all that crap but this lady was set in her mind that the dogs would be made to chase a rabbit and just would not have it that it's in there nature to chase I always get Manchester terrier or Doberman pinser lol . And that's just by the lad's on here. Quote Link to post
