We had fun today on the airfield running through the snow! I think Floyd has long neck and legs too, compared to other whippets, I will have to meet up with some experts at an event and you can see if he is coming on ok. He stilll makes every day special and I am head over heels in love with...

Hi, Floyds back!! He's doing fine and nearly a year old - his birthday is on the 23rd March! When I look at pics on here he still seems quite slim, not very muscley, what can I do to help him fill out, or will it happen when he matures. Lise

Hi, Merry Christmas to you all. I am looking for a new bed for Floyd, I would like something with a cover, roof?? but in fabric material, I like the igloos for cats, are there any that are whippet size? someone also posted something that was like a material tunnel that was a bed, the idea the...

Hi, Thank you for your help, I know that whippets are lean but he does have some pointy areas, elbow and hips, but I suppose he's still growing and using loads of energy just by being him! he is 7 months and 2 weeks, when do whippets fully mature? I am looking forward to taking Floyd back to...

Hi all, I have been reading through previous posts as I want to make sure Floyd is eating enough, putting on weight etc. He weighs 23 lb and is 20 1/2 inches tall (approx, he was moving about a bit) do I measure to shoulder? He looks like a leggy dog to me, and not as muscular as other...

Hi Steve, I have been following this thread and after seeing the picture can only imagine (and I only do so for a fleeting moment as I get upset :( ) how anxious, upset and angry you must be feeling. He is so gorgeous and when I look at my whippet Floyd and see how trusting and loving he is...

Hi all, we have been enjoying one of many walks down by the River Humber,& East Yorks Coast, I was kicking the ball and sadly Floyd jumped straight into a nettle patch after it, after a little wimper he spent the remainder of his walk rubbing his face and neck along the grass, which I assume...

Hi all, Thanks for all excellent advice, he is as I say up there 6 months on 23rd of sept sp 6 mths 2 weeks. I am concerned that id I give him a chicken wing he will expect them all the time and prefer them to his tripe & complete and therefore start fussing at meal times, other than that I...

He is beautiful and so nice natured, especially with Floyd when he keeps nicking his hide chews, football and food!
