You obviously ain't got much experience of whippets they can be far more than just wee rabbit dogs fact no ones asking yas preference of type ,you kept greyhounds a very different animal than a whippet but fa me for inferior and that would not be fa a quarter either far better animals these days than greyhound to be making lurchers from whippets the best small hound version on the planet simple.and surprisingly they are capable of eats well above size and weights would expect. Oh that his first hand experience not science waffle what would you call a long run seven minutes three minutes  they can look an age and be a mere two whippets are capable of and in some cases more in baking heat which means they are allready a cool animal much in the same has a saluki but less extensive through evolution terms saluki environment whippet evolutionary environment..get ya self a hip pet they come in all shapes and sizes and surprisingly performance Neva judge a breed u less one has knowledge on the full spectrum of them  it would be like saying all Salukis are plodders and all greyhound are fast, but that just ain't true variables in all I have seen whippets slower off the mark than staffs over twenty paces  but loads a top end and stamina what yas rynning now a greyhound lol .atb bunnys

I'm surprised they are not winning coursing matches across the board with such powers ?.

I've ran whippets, greys and there hybrids for a few years and find whippets to be great up and at em dogs with sensible slips but if the run goes on? Its horses for courses to my mind.

some interesting theories, whippets always had more stamina than grey hounds that's a fact, where I grew up there  was loads of whippet raceing, and if you wanted more pace in your lurchers that's what you went to, and stamina /recovery was never a problem, ok my dogs had saluki in them but I still think the whippet played a huge part, the fawn bitch was from my sal x beddy lurcher bitch to a good non ped racing whippet dog this bitch had bags of stamina and great recovery other bitch is off her to a related dog, so same way bred but not direct whippet no difference, long way to say it but I think all the training in the world wont improve your dog enough to make any real difference, its in its breeding.

nice dogs mate, and i do like whippets had great little none ped bitch , dont know about stamina  how good whippets have but most greyhounds bred for  speed not  wind, so maybe whippet got better recovery  than , but doesnt surprise  i had 6 months at greyhound racing kennels  seen some with  better staying power than others . But your dogs are hybrid bred  and lurcher x lurcher will always not bad wind , but being honest mate when you got more than 2 breeds in a mix, you can never really tell what a pup picked up from the breeds in there , you can have 1xs lik my 2 dogs , ive been lucky as both have picked up the other base line  that collie  in one , and gsd in the other, it could have gone the other way, and the greyhound could have kicked in  regards the engine  room   .

You say greyhound bred for speed what are whippets bred for brains?

back when I was a boy most of the whippet men worked their dogs as well, not many greyhound men do, and I think its that that has made the whippet a better animal.

The ped whip on the left bred from old coursing moonlake  lines stays fore ever  with great recovery the non ped on the right bred from very good non ped racer lines has unbelievable early pace  great to watch both run . with whips you can’t generalise when you see a good few run some surprise 

What is the non ped bred out of mate.
