    My line of thinking for years was never more than two dogs,they just a lot easier to care for and as long as the two get along its not much harder than Haven one Along comes a pup ,and a year later every thing is now coming into place.but they was time's in last year that made me rip my hair out and get to the point where what I love to do was becoming stressful and my dogs and family could see this. My pup a year old now and the other two have excepted her into the fold but it was hard work. My old dog started to shut down and my busher growled every time she set eyes on pup.t

    I took my dogs for check up at vets and I got wormers and flea treatment why I was there . i use wormer first then flea treatment ten days latter.all 3 dogs were treated at same time but few days after flea treatment my whippet x came out with a rash on the treatment area .this then turned very sore looking and weeping fluid. i cleaned the area with hibi scrub and put savalon onto area and it's getting better now . as anyone else come across anything like this ?

    Round my way we had plenty rabbits but not many hares up until about six seasons ago .now I'm lucky to see a single rabbit on same land ,every year I see young about and think they coming back but mixy kicks in as well as rhvd virus and wipes them out. with out the rabbit a lot of wildlife going to suffer and prederters such as fox badger etc going to take farm stock a lot more .the rabbit is a food source for so many and taken it out the circle will make a lot wildlife suffer . why mankind got to fcuk with nature beats me . as for coursing I was reading a peace in shoot and som

    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
