Looking for new pack member

[dogs-n-natives 1,181]

Hello all! I am after some help with choosing a whippet. Theres a lot of different looking stuff out there, some roach backed some not, some big some small. What are the best lines to go for. Has anybody got any pics of working whippets? Ive heard of Sooty Sam, apparently this was an excellent dog, which thew cracking pups- anyone got a whipet from these lines? The whippet will need to have the phisique to enable it to work daily and will be used mainly for rabbiting, day and night, but I also hope to run it with our bobbery pack, of spaniel, hound and terrier crosses from time to time. Any help will be much appreciated

in my opinion, Mike Brown's dogs (sooty Sam) are the best workers I've experianced, there's lots of pictures of his dog's offspring on here, including a few from a litter I bred and ALL are doing brill!!

 

do a search on the name Mike Brown or sooty sam and have a read

 

here's a picture of Glen, one of Mike's top stud dogs and the one I used to my bitch, he threw excellent pups, a couple of lads on here have pups from this litter and they are over the moon with them.

 

of course this is just my opinion, and I'm sure others have thier faves too

Aye those whippets are strong looking dogs. Ive noticed 'Glen' here and there, and havent heard a bad thing about that line, exactly the sort of thing i'll be looking for. It will be the summer time when I will have new kennels for the dogs and the space for my new member.

There must be good workers from other lines out there?

Thanks to al for the help

i would highly recommend mikey browns stuff im a mate of zac twist who owns jake two (see mikeys site) he is the best wippet ive ever seen will run all day and take rabbits for fun!

he gets on well with all the lurchers and terriers superb temprament but can be a little bit noisy in the kennels but a small price to pay

[Guest little lurcher]

hi there you wont go far wrong with a good strong whippet!! as you are further up north id say also try jeff at pennymeadow or mark at parkstone , darren young from lincs , paul cork in norfolk , and myself norfolk too all work our whippets and would help and advise as much as we could , mike brown is also an obvious choice but many many lines of whippets also work to a very high standard
