The mum was 17 n half dad 20tts but she was smallest out the 3 bitches in litter so wasn't sure but I thought 15 was decent size for age.. hoping for 18-19 still plenty time to grow i geuss

mine was that size at same age made 19tts, I was hoping for bigger but thank fxxk she didn't, I think the smaller ones are far better suited to what I want, around cover, hedgerow, embankments etc. 

Yeah perfect size for female whippet i reckon if mine makes same be more than happy

I'm no expert but wouldn't worry about tape measures if you're wanting a whippet to do what whippets do.

It will do that for you no bother mate 

[tatsblisters 11,274]

Always admired the prey drive on the ped whippets don't think I've ever come across one without it. A mate has one only as a pet and he's never been into hunting i see him now and again down the local woods i walk around were he has it on the lead all the time as it feks off hunting and cocks him a deaf one when he shouts it back.

Personally id go for something bit bigger but thats just me 22 or over for the lamp job but some will say diffrent 

[breeze 1,414]

I'm always in the mind of thinking.... If your lamping nice small grassy paddocks then you would get away with something 22 and under, But if your running winter drilled fields especially if sometimes the game is going away from you then something a bit more up in the leg would be what I'd be looking for
