    No probs fella, that's the problem, well, sort of, on here., it's very easy to misinterpret what people are trying to convey to others. I did it the other day, one of many times, on sock's thread about his new pup lol ?

    Is that the one that started opening up on a few rabbits, and if it was, has he stopped doing it? Nice dog by the way, always liked the look of him ?

    So you've seen a couple of whippets working that didn't impress you. So, in your opinion, after having seen possibly only two, all whippets are no good? Not looking to argue, just interested as to why/how you formed your opinion

    Very nice, clear pics mate ? ? Got buddleia in my garden. Plenty of butterfles, and I don't know how many different types of insects all over them ?

    Yep I agree ?

    You're probably like 90% of the people on here, that have never even seen a tidy whippet, never mind a properly bred whippet at work. Big difference between shit bred whippets owned by nuggets, and properly bred whippets owned by people that know what they're doing. Sorry about that tommy, hope you find the pup you're after ?

    Couple of good points there. Got a couple of mates, and a couple of others that used to live in my old area, that have owned and worked some of the 1/4, 1/8 and 1/16th bred stuff. Some of them directly from george newcomes, the rest bred from those dogs. All of them good ALLROUND workers. Others that I've heard of, in different parts of south wales supposed to be good digging dogs. No pure kc types though
  14. shaaark
    Lol, agree entirely with you mate. I can appreciate all sorts of terriers really, and seen plenty working and catching allsorts over the years, but digging AINT my thing! ?

    ?!!! ............. I'm already expecting 'someone' to be along very shortly, with a tirade of abuse and preaching. Plummer x beddy, what the f**k is that all about?! ......... ?. Cracking looking pups ?
  16. shaaark
    Ah right, was told he lived in west wales ?

    Didn't jeff feneroli breed working welsh terriers? A mate of mine's brother went to look at a litter of border terriers that he bred, must be about 25 years ago now, and mentioned that he also had some welsh terrier pups there as well. Camarthen I think, west wales

    Excitement maybe?

    Well I agree and disagree with some of this bill. I've owned a few pure whippets, and a few dogs with a fair amount of whippet in, and NONE of them yapped when in pursuit, ever. Personally, I believe it's not any particular type or cross or whatever, but purely frustration more than anything else. Age of starting the youngster, proximity to cover when slipped, and more than anything else, in my opinion, starting them alongside another dog. You see it even when just walking two youngsters together, one will always try to be in front, competition sort if thing
  20. shaaark
    How many of those dogs do you still own? I remember you starting your mali x at about 5 months or a tad younger
  21. shaaark
    Not disagreeing with you. Just saying most dogs I've heard of that yap, have been started far too young, when they've not got enough speed, or the mental maturity needed. Anyway, how's this for odd behaviour? My old dog, without fail, after a break from lamping of about two weeks, would throw the 1st rabbit he caught up into the air, before catching it when it came back down before retrieving it lol. After that, he'd settle and be on normal behaviour
  22. shaaark
    I think that's the case with most yappers, to be honest. With most crosses/types. I have no problem whatsoever, in waiting for a youngster to mature a bit, physically 'and' mentally, before I start them. I'm in no rush ?
  23. shaaark
    Think I've told you before nl, I've not seen loads of beddy x's at work, but NONE of them yapped on anything lol
  24. shaaark
    You know what though mate, you're dead right. The amount of times WE ALL MISINTERPRET things is unreal lol. And, just as an aside, we're all still in the SILLY SEASON! Lol ?

    Thinking about the years gone by, I think there's a few reasons as to why I didn't really appreciate salukis or heavily saluki blooded coursing types. In no particular order lol, I never had permission anywhere, until the last maybe 8 or 9 years, so I wanted my dogs to catch asap. I've always needed and liked a fast type of dog, even for rabbits. I know plenty of people will say 'you don't necessarily need so much speed just for rabbits'. Almost every area I used to frequent years ago, you certainly did, and even more so now on some of our perms. And I think, given those facts,
