whippet 99 2,613 Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 Why another adult dog? Why did the guy get rid? He looks a nice dog but I'd always be weary of taking somebodies cast offs. Good luck with him. The guy saw a post of mine about beddy/greyhounds and contacted me saying he had picked one up "accidentally" a few months previous. He went to pick up a deer/collie/grey and this dog was kenneled with it and the bloke said he wanted them both gone. Neither dog had done anything from what I can gather. Just been kept kenneled. The bloke i had him off had already got 3 dogs. These 2 making 5 and the beddy x just wasn't getting enough work because he favoured the deer/collie/grey. He has been asked to sell him countless times but wanted someone he new would do good by the dog, put some time into him and not pass him on. Hes on a "life long trial" so to speak and the bloke wants him back if I decide things aren't working out. He didnt ask for any money either but I gave him £70 for a few bags of food or whatever. Why another adult dog? It just popped up I guess. I wasn't looking for one. I was after a pup but this seemed too good to turn down and without 6 months of puppy hassle Also my bitch is laid up now with injuries and might not run the same again so to have her and a pup still leaves me nothing to mooch about with over the coming months. Cheers Gaz thats why hes puppyish .........hes well behind with everything being locked up all day.............tossers shouldnt have dogs......... you get better trust and bond with a pup...........and they listen better and know your intentions ............you may have an able dog but it could take as much time as a pup to get him doing what you want................all dogs are diferrent and he may surprise you............. i keep two lurchers as ive had it when you cant go out because one is laid up.......my exact reason .....good luck it looks nice......
