  1. Don't know if you're serious, but you're pissed off with your dog running one if it gets up, accidentally, but would be ok with your mate shooting em?! Or am I missing something?
  2. why risk losing money keep her in doors take a pic of her with some bunnies out the freezer next to her and take a litter out of her asap and get some money out of her and feck taking her out its starting to cold now Indoors is where she certainly is and will be kept. Thieving cnuts about everywhere these days . Oh yeah, the cold doesn't really bother me that much
  3. No, this one's black, just hope she has enough speed, and stamina, to get on terms with those mice, especially if the first two or three runs turn out to be gruellers. But thinking of using afore mentioned 'shiny' collar to partially blind said mice to help my pup. Here's hoping
  4. Didn't say they'd be lacking in anything, was just pointing out that it doesn't matter if sire or dam is greyhound. As max said, theoretically, end result is the same
  5. Speed on top, so every half cross lurcher that has the greyhound as it's dam is slow?!
  6. Got myself a new pup, 1st x whip/grey bitch. Be about 4 months about xmas time, will giving her a couple of hours out on the lamp be ok and bring her on a bit, over the festive period, and should I start saving my pennies for the vets, once she starts smashing her feet and getting ripped? . Oh yeah, will she be able to run roughish ground? Thanks
  7. Why not? Loljust a We joke between us lol I know, amusing thread that lol
  8. Thought it was 18 in less than 25 mins?! Lol. Be a VERY good night to see 18 in an hour and half never mind 25 mins locally to me lol
  9. Thought whippets needed beddy in em to make good ferreting/daytime dogs?! Lol. Loving this thread
  10. Really enjoying following this thread, and the pics and contributions off everyone are 1st class
  11. Couldn't agree more,Years ago lamped with a half bred terrier cross , no speed to talk about , worst feet I've ever seen and a short little terrier tail on it but game as f**k , caught most in or around the hedge , Wouldn't have swapped her for any fleet footed speed merchant A dog will find a way of catching to suit it's attributes if you throw enough work at it , Hmmm, I get what you're saying, but I disagree. In 90% of the places where we're from, unless you've got a 'fast' type, you're going home empty handed, day or night. Not wishing to argue, just saying as it is, and always h
  12. I'm not a saluki fan, but that's one of the better looking pures I've seen for quite a while. Just out of curiosity, why was she for sale/avalaible at 10 months, doesn't make much sense to me? Anyway, lovely bitch
  13. Don't know what happened to my earlier post! Was just going to say, along with a few emoticons, that the 'few pics' thread seems to have chilled a few of people out! lol . And just say to ruggers that I wouldn't give your new dog too many retrieves while he's still getting used to you, new routine etc. But that's just my view on it
  14. Rew, how are the sire and dam bred, Think you said before that the dam is collie/grey/whippet?
  15. Get a life, and a sense of humour FFS! Lol
  16. That's the point I was making. Yes you need to take any pup out and about, and educate it etc, and it will run the odd rabbit now and again, but as you say, lamping and proper regular running etc needs to be left til it's mature enough not to risk being stressed and strained unnecessarily. By the way, I like that pup of yours, looks a cracker
  17. He won't be 'set', ligaments, tendons etc til he's about roughly 16-18 months anyway. If it was me I'd not be doing much at all, workwise, with him until then. Just get him out and about fairly regularly, socialising, teaching him some manners, stock breaking etc. Run him a little too young and you 'could' set him up with little strains and niggles which might impact on him for life, and piss you off and start thinking, like more than a few people do, that whippets are shit, fragile, got shit feet etc etc, which they aint and haven't! Or even pm some keen whippet guys off here like trev70 and
  18. Not everyone needs to, or even likes going out in company with more than one dog I didnt say they did. Calm down and dont take everything as a personal attack.That comment was not aimed at you. Ive had great nights out on my own and to be honest most lads Ive been out with (and that aint many) do things I dont like or they let too many dogs go and so on and I havnt repeated it. Much better on my own,you are right.. My point was that if you find a good mate,and by that I mean two blokes who get on well and naturally get on and have more or less the same fitness and pace and enjoy the sport
  19. Not everyone needs to, or even likes going out in company with more than one dog
  20. And as has been said, and should be instilled into the majority of newcomers to lamping, f**k trying to impress anyfucker, or doing it to boost ego's, get out on your own with the one dog and do it properly, bollocks to impressing anyone, or feeling the need to brag/boast etc. Just my views, but what the f**k do I know?! Lol
