Hi all - After you were all son wonderful when I lost my Sadie and began the hunt for a pup, I thought I'd pop back on and let you know how she is getting on. This is Molly now: She is about 5 months old now -and HUGE - well long anyway ;) She is chalk and cheese from my Sadie - very...

Forgot to say - she's 9 weeks, so just a babe.

Thanks for all the good wishes - she is a completely different pup from Sadie, much more assertive, energetic and boistrous.....she has worn us all out already :p She is already typical whippet and runs for the house if its a bit chilly or the grass is wet, but had a lovely sunbathe yesturday...

Thanks you all for you help and advice - we found our perfect girl after all. I wasn't in a hurry but she turned up and is exactly what we wanted.....she is very assertive and full of beans, came from a wonderful breeder and is very different in looks and temperment from my lovely Sadie. She is...

Derma gel: http://www.natural-animal-health.co.uk/derma_gel.htm

There is a really good wound dressing I've used on my horse for this kind of open cut - it comes out as a gel and forms an anticeptic film over teh wound until the scab forms. Its not that expensive and ideal when stitches are not relaly needed but you have an area to keep clean. Comes in a...

Rural home with other dogs, teenage children and work-at-home mum - lots of walks, cuddles on the sofa and dog centred holidays waiting for her.... Would offer a home to any pup / bitch under 3 as long as has a family orientated temperament and likes being with other dogs. Can collect from 80...

I'm based in north Buckinghamashire - and happy to travel up to 80 miles in any direction, which takes in most of the East, South East and midlands. Of course LOADS of whippets in Wales and the north east! :rolleyes: I do have kids olismum - but they are rising 12 and 14 so pretty sensible and...

Thanks Eve - I know I should keep waiting - its been nearly a month now but is still very raw, I guess I hope that at least the search will take the edge of it. I am also hoping that there might be a pup from a litter being bred from a half brother of my girl might be a possibility, but that...

Thanks guys - Janimal - there is NOTHING wrong with black whippies - its only that my very beloved girl I have just had PTS was black and I don't think its fair to look at a new pup/dog and be reminded so strongy of her loss, she didn't have a good end, it was traumatic for both of us, and its...

Hello all, When I bought my whippet 8 years ago prices seemed fairly standard at about £200 - a little more for an exceptional show pup. I've been looking again and they seem to range from £150 (for an unsold older pup or adult) up to £600 :unsure: I understand why a bitch goes for more than...

I do hope the results are cler for Dylan - hopefully you won't have to wait too long. Just to share an expereince we had with our girl - she had a spot sounding very similar to yours in the same place - took her to the vet and had it operated on, she healed really well despite the anxiety of...

Thanks again to everyone for your kind words, and I'm so sorry others have been through similar agony. AS people say, I'm trying to just rememebr the happy memories but the truth is I just want ehr back so much. That last picture makes me smile too TillynPip - Sadie and my cob never seemed to...

A much loved girl:

Hi Debbie -thanks so much for replying, I'd lost your contact deatils but thought you might see this. Yes it was Sadie - she has been the most wonderful member of the family and my son will be as heart broken as I am - he is away in France so I won'te tell him until he gets home. It sounds as...

Thanks for the kind words, I guess in the end the reason doesn't make any difference, its just so hard to come to terms with and I do miss her. Ive not been on this forum for ages - but I knew you guys would understand.

I lost my precious 8 year old girl last night after 24 hours of fits which the vet was unable to stabalise. Absolutely heartbroken and stunned - has anyone ever heard of a similar tragedy? We were out for a lovely walk and she just went into a massive fit and despite vetinary treatment within...

Thanks for the advice - and reasurance that I'm not putting my baby in a cage!

We are planning for our whippeet pup - and have been advised that crates are a 'good thing', to help the pup feel safe in the home, to aid training and to help the dog to travel safely. Any views on this  - and if the concensus is that they are a 'good thing' - where on earth do you get a...
