  16. Had a brilliant day last Sunday 21st April at the Sporting Whippet Club NI first show of the year. This venue was first class , and all credit goes to Victor Mc Donald the Owner of Dunsilly for that. Although it was a little on the cold side ,the sun shone all day, with the exception of a few light showers. Whippet men and women, their families and dogs were there in large numbers , all just glad to see the summer on the horizon, and the show season started. Grading started at 12.00 noon, and there, the Sporting Whippet Club NI show season began. Sporting Whippet Club N.I. Show / Race
