A  long time ago, dont know how many years ,i was still at school,and used to watch the racing at carlton whippet racin club,not sure but i think dave and brenda thompson use to run it. i only lived 5 minutes away so walked there every weekend.then one day my dad bought me a dog ,one of his mates (wally brown) owned the bitch (snowshoes)  the sire dont know where it came from but it was called yorky boy. as anyone got any info on these dogs and there breeding.
 
Neil give me an hour and i'll have some info for you!!!!
 
I have never heard of a dog called Snow Shoes from that far back  but i will check for results from carlton whippet racing club to see if the name shows up.

                              Blue Peter

Rch Yorkee Boy

                              Gypsy

Blue peter was a really well known stud dog (blue as previously mentioned)

I'm not quite sure that gypsy was open class but will continue to search, hopefully i will be back soon with more info for you)

Sorry Neil i failed to mention that Yorkee Boy was famous for throwing cracking pups to greyhound bitches and large whippet x Greyhounds
 
I have found Yorky Boy in one of my dogs pedigrees and he won his Rch title at the 1st ever BWRA championshipsin 1968, not only that he went one better and gained Sup Rch.
