His parents were but he’s not got any papers or rubbish like that. Just a grafter.

Probably just me but I prefer the little robust old type of whippet.....each to their own like but I’m not too keen on the taller ones I’ve seen around the last decade or so.

when I was a kid allot of the men had whippets, and there was some real good ones mouching dawn and dusk, not fereters dogs good honest little workers one of my wife's  uncles allways came back up the lane with sumat in the shopping bag, lol.

I've caught lots of rabbits with those old style, barrel-chested whippets..

Speedwise, they are not in the same league as the Hard-Bloods, but I have found that the KC runners, leftover, from the organised  hare-coursing days, often have stronger feet.

Obviously, the out and out race dogs, are fabulous specimens,.almost mini-greyhounds, great physiques , but for hedgerow rabbiting, the original pedigree, working type whippets, are plenty good enough. Whatever the style of whippet,...for me, as a part-timer,  these diminutive speedsters still bring a lot to the table...

Used to have a mick brown bred dog out with us on a Sunday with the terriers, stood 22.5 fairly strong built for a whippet , would stick his head in at the end of a dig and even travel underground, used to walk to where the hares were and catch one if you got close enough before they got to fidgety, because he was brought up with lurchers from a young age he acted and worked like a lurcher , muntjac were taken single handed by him although I didn't see this ,this was in the nineties before the laws changed for the worse

The lad that owns him has put him over a few lurchers like I said he is a strong built whippet I would have no problem using him again
