Boris2014 0 Posted February 9, 2014 Report Share Posted February 9, 2014 Hi everyone I'm new here and to whippets I've just bought a male 1/4 bedlington x 3/4 whippet. He is a great pup listens retrieves in my garden. I'm just looking for some tips on how to get him ready for taking lamping a few pals of mine have been doing it for couple of years. So just wanted to know a bit and get some advice before going with them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
