Must admit never had much to do with whippets over the years as I always kept bigger dogs. Obviously before the ban how did they get on with other things ( Only edible game ) ? I imagine game enough,  but perhaps not the size and strength there.

I kept bigger dogs and smaller dogs before ban they suit me nowadays  and your right at the end part of ya post even tho they punch above ther size n build  Leo

My old whippet would give anything a run and muntjac just seemed to drop at his feet, he believed he was a bull x because he had the courage of one that's for sure
