Remember my cousin's whippet bitch getting out when in season and the spaniel collie dog that we would take rabbiting that was always on the street nailing her and some of the resulting pups that he sold for 50pence making cracking mooching dogs this was about 1972. lol

Lol, our first two dogs cost exactly that, 50p, from 'ponty' pontypridd market lol.

  First one, about 1969, six weeks old, 'rusty' as he was a rusty brown colour lol, aggressive  beyond belief, couldn't stroke him or even put your feet on the floor, or he'd be savaging you!!  He went back to the market after 4 days lol.

Second one, about 1970, 'snowy' as he was all white, with just a small patch of very pale fawn/cream on the right hand side of his head. Apparently, his father was a show type whippet, mother just a small mongrel.

He was a lovely dog, but 'went missing', stolen more likely, after probably a year and half.

I remember the pups, kittens and other pets for sale in Ponty market in the indoor part behind glass counters 50+ years ago now, frightening
