I will personally give anyone 10, 000 pounds Stirling, if they they could beat a pedigree whippet over 50, 100, 150 or 200 yards.

People talk silly about the difference in speed of non ped and ped whippets.

I know just the man for you !!!

This race, I could be confused but it is mC HULL against a dog? From scratch or handicap?

Last I heard instead of chasing the rag  they just have a land rover come down the lane behind the competitors and see who can run off the quickest

Can be good fun little dogs whippets, I was always a bit sceptical about some of the claims people made about them punching above their weight until I saw it with my own eyes
