  1. Ive never slagged off any dog from that litter I think yours is a nice looking bitch, and I respect anyone out their walking the walk with their dogs, you just put up a post directed at certain members on here without naming them so don’t take it to heart when you get something back ?
  2. Makes no odds to me mate the man above asked about Wheaton crosses I just say what I’ve seen in the past everyone’s got their own preferences good luck with the litter ?
  3. Just speaking the truth, I’m surprised their wasn’t a waiting list as long as your arm for the litter your young bitch is from, everyone will be kicking themselves with them doing the full spectrum of quarry by the time they had their 2nd jabs ?
  4. Or a whippet greyhound, could just call it a lurcher if you wanted I suppose
  5. 2 of my mates got litters on the ground right now out of good proven bitches, all pups being gifted & every one booked before they were born, so that’s not a theory it’s fact. Not everyone operates that way some people want to make their money back & don’t mind selling pups to strangers but not everyone shares that opinion, some people are very guarded where their pups go and money doesn’t come in to it. Whichever way a man chooses to do it with his own pups is up to him, but what you’ve said isn’t just a bullshit claim there’s people out there that do it like that & If everyone sh
  6. Surely it’s self explanatory, if it’s got more than one breed in the mix it’s not a whippet, it’s a whippet based lurcher, you wouldn’t call a 3/4 grey 1/4 whippet a non ped greyhound
  7. Only ever saw 1 half cross wheaten greyhound was a handy dog round a hole but as far as being a runner goes I think I could’ve ran faster, caught a few rabbits & the odd fox on the lamp but hares & deer that didn’t hit fences didn’t have a chance. Similar thing to the half cross bull greyhounds they’re very good at their job but they’re a million miles from an all round lurcher, just my opinion mind few people will disagree with me.
  8. Don't understand this new craze, lads get a camera & a YouTube account next thing they’re making kennel names and peddling pups. Like that lad that goes ferreting in the Mercedes with that bitch molly the machine or whatever it’s called. I’d be embarrassed to let people know that was my dog never mind film it.
  9. The way the advert reads is as if it’s out of both his dogs
  10. Is that the lad that does the nighthunter whippet YouTube channel selling those pups? Sounds like his mrs or something doing the advert the way it’s worded? Needs f***ing off instantly if it is people like him aren’t proper dog men they’ll be the ruination of working lines.
  11. How many pups were in the litter jigsaw looks like just 5 in the video is that right

  13. Phone your local greyhound track & ask them, they’ll put you on to someone. For a dislocated wrist though I’d find the best running dog vet you can and travel wherever you need to, if it becomes an on going problem that’ll be the end of your dogs serious running career.
  14. I’ve never gave a puppy 2 jabs, just the 1 does fine, and tbh I’m not even sure they need that. I don’t get them chipped till they’re a year old as well, had a pup chipped at 8 weeks good few years ago and the chip migrated right round to the joint behind his front leg caused a bit of a problem.
  15. Speak for yourself I couldn’t give a f**k what any of you do I’m not a people person ?
  16. Genuine question do the rabbit boys find it fairly easy to get a dog that’ll do the job to a decent standard? Or is it hard to find a real good one?
  17. I don’t bother with coursing anymore it’s all historical conversation, let’s get back to legal rabbiting.
  18. Some of the best dog lads I’ve met have been in their 20s & some of the worst in their 50s, age isn’t a reflection of how clued up someone is
  19. That wasn’t aimed at you, how could you possibly think it was I don’t know anything about you or what dogs you keep?
  20. Had it loads, dogs kill 2s 3s every time out then when you see them run they don’t look like killing a thing. Life’s too short to tell lies & make excuses for duffers, best cutting your losses and starting again. I had a dog jack on me not too long ago, it’s a horrible feeling but always better doing the right thing.
  21. You could have a top class bitch done 5/6 hard seasons, and a dog the same quality & the 2 of them together could produce rubbish, nobody can predict breeding, if we could then we’d all have superstars. You can stack the odds in your favour but if you expect a lot of your dogs you’ll get some that can’t hack it, just the way it goes
  22. Good post apart from your last statement, no matter how good a dog man you are & how much work you put in, you can’t make a silk purse out of a pigs ear, if a dogs no good it’s no good. If you keep a decent standard and don’t budge from it you’ll get failures, it’s what you do with them that matters. A lot of men will just lie about it and say the dogs class when it’s not, make every excuse they can think of for a bad performance, this gives the impression that these men must be top class with dogs cause they never get failures but really they’re just full of shit
  23. I picked you up wrong, I didn’t realise you meant get their money back by breeding, I thought you meant they wanted an actual refund from the breeder ? Youre right without a doubt, so many dogs get bred these days just because they’ve got bulldozer, romeo, Lucas etc in their pedigree no matter if they’re any good or not it’s a shame.
  24. Do you think it’s the fact that people don’t like parting with their money, or maybe they don’t like parting with money and later feeling like they’ve been lied to and ripped off? I’m not tight in the slightest with money but if I bought a pup then found out the breeder had been lying about the parents capabilities I’d be annoyed whether it was £10 or £1000
