And just to add these shits will wonder up and down at their will the farmer dare not confront them through fear of threats of burnt out barns,house etc and I can guess what cross(sooper dooper cross smash every thing) these shits use,and no one can tell me any other wise I'm dying to reply positively to this, but I think you are correct, so I shan't! Lol

This old whippet is 14, has caught more rabbits & hares than I can remember he may not kill the foxes but kept them busy till the bruisers get there, when he was younger https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zh6fwStgtZU Enjoyed watching some of those clips, will watch a bit more when I got the chance

I have to say, that of the people on here that bemoan whippets, and whippet crosses, that they must've seen whippets and whippet crosses that were bred from piss poor whippets. Seriously, practically all the whippets I saw, or owned, almost none of them opened up. And the ones that did, pure or crossed, were entered too soon. Give a dog a chance to mature, many many people on here would be surprised.

Would that hedgehog be a nimble 'hog' or a '90 yard flyer'? Lol

An old mate of mine's mum had two, sharp as tacks and very intelligent wonder what they be like x back whippet, as both are similar size , you prob get good feet and coat from the mix with bit of brain, good for rabbiting in the day, and bit in the night. Yeah they prob be a n

A couple of collie/greyhounds I've seen were pretty unusual. They would've given most people a nervous breakdown!

there 300 notes Made me chuckle that lol not for me, I'm just being nosey and besides I know a breeder that would gift me one. Tho I'd be more interested in a non ped if I'm honest and was seriously gonna get onee You thought about whippet X lurcher? As in one parent a racey lurcher and the other a whippet? Just chucking the idea out there. Might be a shit idea. Lol. Saw one a few years ago and it was a belter. Think the Dam was collie/bull/whip/grey and Sire racing whippet. Was a really nice animal. Looked like a strong 22" whippet. Gaz.that's been done a LOOONG LOOONG time ag

yeh in a way , but suppose because ive killed things for 30 years, just wanted to know if anybody ever felt like that , still like meat so nothing changed .!! RAY........................................

There's been pure whippets as big as that, and bigger, long before MB started breeding his dogs, which incidentally are derived from a lot of laguna breeding. I owned a bich 30 years ago that was 21.5" tts, that was mainly nimrodel, cockrow and nevedith bred. And the sire and dam of my last whippet, different breeding, but with some same dogs in pedigree, 24 years ago were 22.5" and 21.5" respectively. Big whippets are not a recent or rare thing. Not being funny, just highlighting that there's pretty much always been big, and small, purebred whippets about

Fairplay gaz, most of the pics I've seen of this bitch she's gleaming

Classifieds, on the homepage

Yeah, that's kind of what I meant really. Can't see that type being bred with hunting/work in mind
-
i am just curious why you think that its ok for coursing/saluki bred type pups to be that much and not any other lurcher? Wouldn't personally pay that sort of price for a pup, but that's been the sort of price that I've seen some coursing bred pups being advertised for. And LPD I wouldn't really know how much, or how little, coursing bred pups go for these days. Just making an observation really

Just had a quick look at the classified section . Deerhound/borzoi x deerhound/greyhound pups. £500 for bitches £450 for dogs . I could sort of understand those sort of prices if they were coursing/saluki bred type pups, but not litters such as these. Anyone interested in taking one on?

My first dog of my own was a whippet ( well may have had something else in there but basically a whippet), was 7 or so when I got him, called him Haglar after marvellous Marvin, went everywhere with me, got a real soft spot for whippets. To reply to the above posts; I think this is the case with many lads on here, they believe that they need 'a machine' etc etc, or 'the best' type/cross, when in reality a whippet would more than cover alot of their hunting needs. W, Katchum, I knew you were really a secret whippet admirer lol
-
Lol, it's all in good fun, I can assure people . And as much as some people might dislike them, there's no getting away from the fact that some of the lads/lasses that own them, have some of these bull x's in tip top condition. Oh yeah, roy I'm not likely to ever own a decent bull x either, and you're right, I've personally never seen a really good bull x work, a fair few lurchers with a bit of bull in that were more than decent, but not just bull/grey

Only if you shave them first lol

Especially the feathered types lol

Underrated and underestimated, I love the little feckers

lol cheered my morning right up that lol

I totally agree with you shaaark. How lads can say they are lurchers is beyond me mate. Useless lumps n good for nothing. Pedantic and controversial my posts/comments can sometimes be. But bite, you will not get out of me, oh bull cross owner lol.Edited to add, I will say it til my dying breath, bull crosses are NOT lurchers, and as you've just said king, are useless lumps of nothing, that offer NOTHING to proper lurcher work Shaark was you ever molested by a bull cross owner lol or did you catch the missus in with one you owned lol,there is therapy available ,go out and catch some foxes w
