I'm sure the sire was a whippet called Bow so I always presumed they were 'new' at the time...but that was at the same time as I bought my first lurcher so would have been c. 91-2. I may even have a photo of it somewhere. If I find it I'll put it up. Won't be great quality though as it'll be a photo of a photo. Edited May 23, 2021 by Neal 2 Quote Link to post

In an ideal world you might keep the lot like Greyhound breeders do until you can see more of them as saplings, but failing that the ordinary bloke just breeds to improve on the parents and makes his choice. The ones that go elsewhere are out of his hands and gone. Quote Link to post
