Guest lurchers&terriers Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 Forgive me if this has already been done but does anyone here work whippetxgreyhounds? they used to be quite common but you don't here much of them these days. So does anyone work them or have worked them or have a opinion on them? it would be nice to see some pics to. Quote Link to post

Guest lurchers&terriers Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 I just got 2 pups workin whippet lines x with a little bull in i had a whippet x grey years but already workin so trainin new 2 me any tips mate what dogs u got what ages did u do more with them as these good at basic stuff like sit fetch wait come cheers if u could send me some tips cheers rich All the tips i can think of pal are you need to be patent and don't rush them in to anything. If you spend plenty of time with them and build up a good bond you will know when there ready. Start them by letting them watch another dog at work and if you give them a run make sure there easy runs and then gradually build them up. the more you put into them and the more patents you have with them the better they will turn out. thats my opinion anyway Quote Link to post

SPOTTY BACKED BIG RACK 90 Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 rabbits arent fussy where they live as long as theres food shelter and water so if u want good tallys of rabbits u have to go where they are Quote Link to post
