AirgunGuy 362 Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 Absolutely Davy. My wee whippet just had his 1st season and the pleasure we both got was magic. Ok...they are limited but for fast and furious action they're superb. Give me that to 3 min saluki shite any day 2 Quote Link to post
robwelsh 354 Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 I once worked a pure greyhound, lacked brain, wind, feet, coat, nose, only thing she had going for her was speed, wouldnt thank you for another, i can live with slightly less speed, buster. she couldn't of been that fast if she didn't have "wind" and had shit feet could she...lolWhy cant a dog be fast and not have wind, i didnt say she was fast over any distance did i ,iam speaking from experience, are you, did you actully see the dog run, no, ffs , buster.why not just say stamina?

Lampalurcher 47 Posted March 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 Each to their own the main issue I have with whippets is there owners to be honest Quote Link to post
Lampalurcher 47 Posted March 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 It's nearly as bad as the bull cross boys who won't accept a dog with no bull can an will out perform their dogs regularly Quote Link to post

rob284 1,682 Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 I knew I'd wind a few off the whippet lads up with this but it shows there is so much kennel blindness with the whippet lot they just can't seem to accept a cross is more useful than a pure whippet don't get me wrong whippets can be used for Allsorts but why bother when there's much better suited dogs out there if you get the right whippet it'll do anything a cross will. mine is keen as f**k in a bush, great feet, cracking nose, marks ferrets lamps retrieves jumps. what more you want from a rabbit dog. it does anything any other cross will do on rabbits.
