  1. of course theres cheating or at least favouratism by the judges towards mates and top faces but there were some bloody good dogs there that got placed or won on merrit as well.

     

    saw some very nice examples of whippets as well as the over sized greyhound type they seem to be producing these days for the ring

  2. The East Anglia Whippet Country Cluyb held the Bob Blatch Meeting to find the top Lure Coursing Whippet, entry was by invitation only.

     

    This meeting used to be a live Coursing meeting run by the East Anglia Whippet Coursing Club but since the ban on Hare Coursing has been switched over the Lure Coursing.

  3. Flash was a good dog, I was gutted to let him go but he just wasn't settled here.

    we bred him sold him at 8 week old and he came back to us at 9 months having been an only dog and havin g never been walked or even seen another dog since leaving us at 8 weeks old, and so he couldn't settle being back in a pack situation.

    I had him out with the ferrets & at night on the lamp and like I said we coursed him under rules with East Anglia WCC, he'd more than proved himself in the field day/night.

     

    i'm not realy a picture taker.

  4. Thanks Chester, glad your mate was happy with Flash as well as working day/night & racing he also coursed under rules winning a stake with EAWCC and making a final of another (from 3 stakes entered.)

    heres a few pics of Parkstoner Flashback, (all genuine preban pics)

    a dog I would recomend down your way is a dog called Whats behind the Mask .

     

     

    .........................................Banatay Bismark

    What's Behind The Masque X

    ........................................Special Little Rat

     

    Behind the Masque was the best dog I ever saw run on the coursing field under rules.

  5. they started reprinti8ng it about 18 months - 2 year ago, you can get the reprint anyware for about £20 (WHSmiths, Amazon ect sometimes on Ebay)

     

    i've got a mint 1st edition in mint condition very nearly put it on e/bay 2 year ago as ex library copies with stamps damage ect were bringing between £200-£275.

     

    wish I had now cos I could of bought a repring and been quids in. :cry:

     

    heres a few on amazon, including a 1st edition The English Whippet

     

    Dont bother buying the Moran-Healy book on whippets it's crap, The shirley rawlings 1's ok

  6. we got sick of eating the crap they sell in supermarkets/butchers all the off cuts and chemicly reclaimed stuff that includes ears, snoiuts, penises, anuses ect ect (sounds like something out of i'm a celebrity?)

     

    anyway wanting good quality sausages that we knew what was in them meant we went down the route of makling our own.

     

    here are a few pics of our home made pork & Pork/beef, nothing better than being able to enjoy without worrying about hard bits and wondering what it is?

  7. Sprott's a real nice lad and has worked hard to get his fights travelling all over europe and taking late call up fights. The knockdown in the first round i think was only because he was off balance but in the second when sprott started to ruff him up you could see the fight disapeer from 'Fraudley', all the hype because he beat a useless Danny Williams and thats were it gets you. I wouldn't call it a lucky punch because he had been lining the left hook up in the previous round. Great result though

     

    Khan well ............. his last fight he was made to look average so before the bell even rang you knew he was going to be in for an easy night. The promoters dont want the 'Golden Egg Layer' to keep been made to look average. Seeing into the future ... i see the same thing happening to Khan as what happened to Audley last night. Maybe then British boxing can concentrate on promoting a decent prospect insted of pushing the bums they have been doing

     

    Why would they go to the trouble of finding good fighters when they can promote pretenders and still fill venues to bursting?.

     

    Whats happened to british boxing there must still be fighters like the quality of Ben, Eubank, Mc'guigan ect out there?.

  8. Hi mate,

     

    People have asked about this name before?.

     

    i've been involved with whippets 15 years and only recently heard about them due to someone on this site and another site asking about them (asking if anyone knew them).

     

    they have a litter advertised on epupz but thats about all i've ever seen/heard of them with racing/lure coursing/working you hear see most lines but i've never come across 1 with that name so can't offer any usefull information..

  9. i would like to orginise an avent open to all running dogs but its a bit difficalt as im in wiltshire and there are not many lurcher people in the area,

     

    Typicle! the only thing stopping you organising 1 is you, get 1 sorted advertise it then we'll all come on and slag it off?.

     

    those that can do! those that can't write crap on the internet when otheres try to organise anything.

     

    Come on Blando you critisised our plans get one sorted! so show us how it should be done.

  10. clearly you have nothing to say now! wippets started from the miners racing them, and this still goes on! but your silly pedagre bunch are from the same lines, with all the good bits bred out of them!

    so at the end of the day all your dogs are just like driving a brand new range rover around "look every body look how much money i have got"!!!!! but they are slower stupider and now where near as hard wearing , so whats the point in having them. please educate me otherwise

    I think i'd have more success asking Stevie Wonder to read me the newspaper.

     

     

    Hi Samba,

     

    yep I cut my teath on lurchers & terriers from the age of about 12, from the age of 13 I vertualy lived on an allotment for 2 years ferreting everyday & lamping most nights (the truancy officer was never away from my house) at 16 I moved into greyhound racing (but still worked dogs) I spent 16 years greyhound racing then moved into whippets.

    I did look into the non ped side of racing and even bought well bred non ped pup but unfortunatly the day after buying it she had to be PTS due to not having any stomach so couldnt handle solid food.

     

    I then bought my wife a KC reg pup anyone who owns a whippet will tell you they have a way of getting under your skin and very soon we left greyhound racing and moved full time into racing/working whippets.

     

    We were lucky enough to get into 2 Whippet Hare Coursing Clubs so we got to course our dogs under NWCC rules as well.

     

    in the past i've tried to include lurcher owners in the lure coursing by putting stakes on for them but it was the same old story, you'd get 16 entered but only 1 or 2 would turn up?.

    like I said earlyer if you look back I advertised lurcher lure coursing & racing on here got loads of PM's ect yet 2 weeks running only 1 or 2 bothered to turn up, maybe I should of printed the names of those who entered then backed out?.

     

    So it's not that i'm turning my back on my past as I had some great days/nights out with lurchers ect over many years but you only try and arrange so many events for people before you call it a day.

    for the record in the past weve had lure course with us, ~ Whippets KC/non KC, Lurchers, Greyhounds, Saliukis, Afghans, Jack Russells, italian greyhounds, & a fat old lab.

     

    So in no way are we being snobby ect but this event is for KC whippets, if any of the lads on here want to organise an event i've got the equipment all you need is a venue/runners/ and people to actualy run it? i've been there and tried it but got let down so would be reluctant to go to the trouble again.
