EDITOR’S NOTE
Can you believe it has been 3 years already since I took over the post of publishing
your newsletter? I hope you are enjoying the updates, news and articles.
Sincere appreciation to HJ for sending in the perspective, attitude and specifications
of the whippet in the mid 1900’s. Also thanks to Sue Nordstrom for summer fun water
photos, to Linda and Steve Buchholz for the peaceful cover photo, John Heffernan
for an article on keeping a whippet fast in agility, and to HJ for submitting coursing
results.
On a personal note, our Tanzy twisted her hock while playing outside, fracturing it,
so we are hoping for a speedy recovery without surgery. She has adapted to her cast
as best she can, and is getting as spoiled as possible.
Wshing you the best! WW

What happens when young whippets discover an open cupboard door and
the five pound bag of flour within?
I was at work and got a phone call from my son who had just gotten home
from school. He said “oh Mom the dogs have just done the worst thing
ever, but it’s also the funniest”. Picture flour everywhere and then imagine
what happens when it’s raining and the naughty dogs have a dog door
to the wet outdoors. In and out, in and out, all day. Get a bit wet then
get another coating of flour when you come back in. Repeat until crusty.

PRESIDE NT ’ S REP ORT
I’m sure I’m once again the not proud recipient of the
Turtle Award! Sorry, Laura, just have had so much
happening in the last while that I can hardly catch my
breath. I can start off with our great adventure to
Ontario for our NWCC National – 2 people and 5
Whippets hit the road for a month. We logged 6,000
miles round trip and had a great time. Having never
driven further east than Winnipeg through Canada, it
was all new sights beyond that for us and we enjoyed
every minute of the drive. We found northern Ontario
to be very much to our liking – seemingly endless
numbers of lakes, rivers, trees and lush forest growth.
Our timing was perfect to be able to avoid most of the
bugs we’d heard are voracious at other times of the
year. Luck was with us on this trip as we seemed to
be a couple of days ahead of forest fires, floods and
tornado, thankfully! We had some great camp spots –
in particular enjoyed camping right on several of
the Great Lakes.
We arrived at the beautiful little town of Caledonia
in the bright sunshine and settled in to our RV spot at
the show. Unfortunately, that was about the end of
the warm temps and blue skies, as the entire show
weekend we endured cold, strong winds, heavy rains
and generally very unpleasant conditions for showing
Whippets outdoors. Although it was cold and breezy
the day of our National, fortunately it never did rain
and our judge was able to use the entire huge ring that
had been provided for us, rather than all of us huddling
under the ring canopies to stay dry as had been done
the previous day. Not only was the size of the entry
very nice, but the overall quality was stellar and Judge
Bengtson had his work cut out for him. For the first
time, we had 30 (yes, THIRTY) Whippets in the ring
at one time for BOB judging and it was a grand sight!
It was also truly a “national” with representatives
from BC, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec and
various US states. I won’t repeat the winners as
they are reported elsewhere in this issue, but sincere
congratulations to those beautiful dogs and their
owners and thank you to each and every one of you
for supporting our National. It was great fun to meet
many of our members in person for the first time as
well as see so many lovely dogs that I had only seen
in pictures. Whippets had an excellent weekend,
quality so deep that a different dog won BOB each
event, placed high or won the Hound Groups and the
first day went all the way to Best in Show. Our
wonderful breed showed off their many talents by
also taking High Score in Obedience Trial!
I can’t say thank you enough to Heather-Jean Dansereau
and Lorraine Burch for putting together this National
and working so hard on the day to make sure things
went smoothly. I have to say I was disappointed to
see so little help in setup and even less in take-down
(everyone vanished!!). Just a handful were left to pack
up – so much so that it was 8 p.m. before we were able
to arrive at the restaurant for the dinner. We had barely
enough members and BOD present for a very hasty
Annual General Meeting (we were all exhausted).
My weekend was over, but felt badly for HJ who had
another day of work with the lure coursing trial the
following day.
We left on Sunday for our journey home – this time
taking a faster route (and cheaper gas ) thru the US.
The weather started to turn hot and we were anxious to
get back to more temperate climes. Seems like a total
blur now – Ontario, Michigan, Illinois, Nebraska, Iowa,
Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho and eastern Oregon
all went flying by. After several long, hot 500+ mile
days, we were soon happily situated in our favorite spot
on the Oregon Coast. We needed a vacation to recover
from our vacation! The dogs were thrilled to finally be
able to stretch their legs on the miles of pristine beaches
after too many hot days of leash walking, as were we.
All in all, a really interesting trip that we wouldn’t
hesitate to do again.
In other Club news, very happy to report that we
have been able to secure the CKC Stud Book printouts
for Whippets for many of the past 25 years. This
information is being added to The Whippet Archives –
www.whippetarchives.com as time permits.
Information on Canadian Whippets has been very hard
to find and I’m very pleased that this information will
soon be available on this wonderful world wide
pedigree site.
I’m sure we’ll be hearing soon about plans for our 2013
National to be held in Calgary in August at the famed
Spruce Meadows Equestrian venue.
Enjoy the rest of the summer –
have fun with your Whippets! WW

NWCC’s National Specialty was recently held in Ontario
and was a huge success. Renowned whippet authority
Bo Bengtson as our judge was a very good drawing card
for entries from several provinces as well as the US.
Please read the results elsewhere in the newsletter.
You can now start thinking about next year’s National
in lovely Calgary, Alberta. It will be held in conjunction
with the prestigious Alberta Kennel Club summer show
in early August 2013, held at the exquisitely beautiful
Spruce Meadows equestrian centre. This is a world-class
facility, and I know our specialty will be of world-class
calibre as well. Our judge will be Ms. Shelley Hennessey
(Chaparral).
Not too much happening as far as official NWCC
business of late. We do have a new member join since
last report, and I’d like to welcome Valerie Carter from
Ontario (thank you, Laurie Rusticus, for sponsoring her).
With all the summer shows, race meets, lure coursing,
et cetera, be sure to support your regional director by
sending them your news for inclusion into their reports
for the newsletter.
Have a wonderful summer. WW

Summer finally arrived on the West Coast the first
weekend of July. The heat ramped up quickly, like
overnight. Us West Coasters were gladly soaking up
the rays of sunshine.
Hello from Sunny Alberta!
Sunshine led the way as we entered two Whippet
Specialties held on July 8th and on July 9th, Lure
Coursing and Field Trial Conformation Show for all
Sighthounds. The two Specialties were well attended
with over 50 entries, Lure Coursing 3 stakes of
Whippet and F. T. Show was well attended. Best of
all was seeing our beautiful breed grace the show ring.
There were some really lovely Whippets this year.
Congratulations to all the Winners. Saturday following
the shows, the Lower Mainland Whippet Association
hosted a fantastic barbeque at Steve and Linda
Buchholz’ beautiful property. The food was yummy –
who knew what great cooks you all are. It is always nice
to kick back for a little down time and connect
with Whippet folk.
Moving backward in time to the month of June to our
National Whippet Specialty, the Great Lakes Specialty
and Ontario Gazehound Specialty, congratulations to
all the winners. Thanks to all the volunteers, I heard the
events were enjoyed by all.

Well, another summer is upon us and we seem to be
experiencing a hot and dry one in this part of Alberta.
It seems to be raining all around us, but we are not
getting a lot of moisture here. : ( Our dogs are
enjoying the warmer temperatures though and we have
been spending a lot of time out in the yard playing
with the dogs and the new litter we have at Lynallan.
I do have a few show & trial results to share, but
unfortunately I don’t have full results from the shows.

Well, I just keep telling myself, at least it is not snowing.
It is so hot this summer, that only my Whippets are
happy about that. If we don’t soon get rain, there will be
no crops left. Finally Ontario folks are sending me some
brags. The first two are from Kate Darbyshire.
My 2 1/2 yr. old boy Clearhounds Pell Mell got the 3rd
leg for his CDX in March at the Belleville obedience trials.
He got a score of 195 for each of the 3 legs, under 3 different
judges.
The same day he got his CDX, he also got his 1st Rally
Excellent leg, with a perfect score.
That’s great news, Kate. Then she sent this..
My boys & I had a great weekend at the Specialty.
We ended up missing all our conformation classes for
obedience, but that’s OK, because:
Clearhounds Pell Mell CDX - finished his RE title,
qualified 3 of 3 times in Open B (scores 194-196), then
won the field trial after the show June 3, finishing his FCH,
too (my first FCH, so pretty exciting);
MOTCH Clearhounds Jim Key CR,RAE, CGN, who, at
12, was only entered as long as he seemed to be feeling OK,
won High in Trial on the Sat. June 2 under Isabel Hutton,
with 197.5 in Open B. Brought tears to my eyes, I’m so
proud of my little Jim.
That is so good to hear. After Kate sent two brags,
I got one from the Freckashpeng Kennels.
We have had a relatively quiet summer so far, and enjoyed
our time spent at the National, meeting new people and
spending time with friends who we don’t get to see often.
We would like to announce the arrival of our litter born on
June 27, parents are Ch. Freckashpeng Liam My Lionheart
and Int’l Can Ch. Hi Tor’s My Honey at Freckashpeng,
and they produced a lovely litter of 1 boy and 2 girls.
Everyone is doing well and healthy.
Paul & Steve, The Hounds of Freckashpeng Reg’d
Thank you everyone for sending the brags. My own two
puppies are having fun this summer. The one little girl
fell in the pond today. Lucky the level is so low. WW

To test for dehydration, put your finger under your dog’s upper lip and
test for wetness. It should be moist and slippery. If the gums feel tacky,
he is lacking in saliva and could be dehydrated.
Skin turgidity can also be assessed to estimate dehydration. The skin
over the shoulder blades is pulled away from the body and released.
The time taken to fall back into a normal position increases with escalating
dehydration. In a well-hydrated dog, the skin will snap quickly back into
place. Don’t use the skin over the neck for testing because this skin is less
pliable than that over the shoulder, so it naturally goes down more slowly.
The last test for dehydration is looking at your dog’s eyes. If his eyes are
sunken, he is extremely dehydrated. WW

10 Tips for Keeping the Fastest Dog Fast at Agility
by John Heffernan
For the fastest dog around under 200 yards, whippets should be really
fast in agility too. But I see many slow whippets and I also see many
whippets that slow down over time. Here are 10 tips for keeping your
whippet (or any other dog) fast in agility.
2) Keep practices fun and short. Whippets typically don’t tolerate
1) Don’t correct. Don’t let your dog know you are disappointed.
3) Avoid RFPs and call offs. Try dropping your shoulder or
Your dog should never know if your qualified or not. 99.9% of
the time you either made a mistake on your handling or your
training or your proofing (the latter is most often ignored).
How many times have you watched a handler scold their dog
for not doing what they said when you clearly see that the
dog exactly followed the handler’s body language? From the
dog’s point of view, they are getting punished for doing what
you asked them to do.
One great way if you don’t get the behavior you want is to go
back to a small sequence and try it again. Reward if you get the
behavior you want. If you still don’t get it after 3 times, you either
did not train it well enough or you need to try it at a different time
and/or place. Let’s say your course at home has a sequence of jump,
jump, A-Frame, jump. If you don’t get the contact you are looking
for don’t stop, don’t treat, but run back as fast as you can and do
try the jump, A-Frame, jump part of the sequence again. It’s better
to do that than just the A-Frame because you keep the game and
excitement going.
Praise and treat if you get what you are looking for. Many
handlers will try and correct, get mad, or stop and talk to their coach,
ignoring there dog. Think about the dog’s point of view. In the first
case, the game stays exciting and they get to try again and maybe
get a treat. In the second case, they are corrected and/or ignored,
the game stops, and they know they have done something wrong.
a lot of repetition and will get bored. I use a rule of three.
Never practice the same thing more than 3 times in row.
changing your path instead of using a reverse flow pivot or a
strong call off. I use my voice when things are not clear but
try to keep it fun helpful rather than either a “barked” order
or panicked plea. Most whippets are “soft” and can’t take the
strong corrections over time.
4) Give your dog distance. Don’t crowd. Work on distance all the
time and from the beginning. Distance is not something you only
use in Gamblers, FAST, and Chances. Dogs can find the fastest
path by themselves when possible. Don’t over-handle them.
Trust them. Don’t crowd or over-handle just at trials to try and
get the Q.
5) Don’t yell at your dog; use a cheerful tone of voice. Even if you
choose to mark a mistake, keep it happy and try again.
6) Don’t let your dog know you are nervous. I found that Wyatt
can sense my nerves if he licks my face. The best thing is to
work on not actually being nervous, but if you can’t, fake it.
I find my voice can change and I can act differently in terms
of petting Wyatt when I am nervous. He seems to be an expert
at picking up on this. So I try and act just like I would at class
at a practice run.
>>
7) Don’t front cross in your dog’s path. Front crosses have their
place but I see lots of whippets handlers doing front cross
much too close to their dog and either almost colliding or getting in their way and slowing them down. In these cases, use
a rear cross if you can or use distance so you have enough
space for a front cross.
8) Try NADAC, especially NADAC tunnelers. NADAC courses
tend to be very open and flowing and motivating especially
to long striding dogs. Tunnelers can be an especially fun
game for whippets. They love the speed and running with
nothing to slow them down like tables, contacts, and weaves.
Wyatt has gone over 6 yards a second in tunnelers, which is
18 feet in one second. It’s the closest thing to racing you can
do with your whippet!

9) Run fast; make it a race. Run on the outside if you have to.
Patriot really loves a good race to the end. It can be
demotivating to be too far ahead though. If this happens,
shorten your stride but keep your feet moving fast.
10) Have clear and consistent handling, don’t flail your arms.
A
Flailing tends to bring your dog into you. Keep your hand
out consistently for the whole course. Your dog is going to
be the least stressed if your handling is clear, predictable,
and consistent. Easier said than done but you will rock as a
team if you both know what to expect. You can them relax
more and focus on the tricky stuff and not the whole course.
Most of all, have fun with your whippet! Ultimately, it’s
not about titles, placements, Qs but about forming and
enjoying a special partnership with your dog. WW
N INCREDIBLE HONOUR
for a novice team, we are thrilled
with Smoke’s continued success in

With 12 titles in agility and 5 in rally,
we just couldn’t be more pleased.

My Clearhounds boys
Jimmy, now 12 , is my first whippet and helped to sell me on the breed. He’s been
awesome in obedience, has won High in Trials beating goldens, has messed up at
times in ways that have made me laugh many times. He never finished a
conformation Ch - too little, a bit tank-like, and “bad” ears; never finished his FCH had the heart, but did not realize he hadn’t the speed. Wonderful dog to live with,
lots of personality, great around other dogs (except puppies – never hurt one, but
hissed at them – really).
Pell Mell, less confident, but doing well in obedience, already has his CDX, with 190’s
scores consistently; maybe UD in 2013; got his FCH at the NWCC Specialty trial,
which was pretty exciting. Ironically, he also has only a few conformation points, but
probably due to being on the big end for size. Happy, loving personality; if I didn’t
already love whippets, he would make it happen!
I’m so grateful to Lynn & Shannon Cleary, their breeders, for all the help and
support; and all the whippet people out there who have been friendly; and even my
obedience instructor, who said, when I told her I was getting a whippet “Oh, Kate; a
hound?” (her golden was one that Jim beat for a HIT …), but was always helpful.
Whippets are the best!

Percy (now AmGCH, AmCanCh Highbridge Power Play AmCan RN, Am RA, CGC, CGN) finished his American championship on April 20
in Lewiston, Idaho, guided to his final win by Linda Buchholz, his sire’s owner. We then went on an additional 3-state show trip (Utah, Ohio and
Wisconsin) where he earned 21 of the 25 points he needed for his American Grand Championship, which he finished on June 24 in Montana with a
total of 5 majors, all owner-handled.
Pender (Ch Kamada’s No More Pending Dream, CGC, CGN) is patiently waiting in the wings but did pick up one more point in the US and also
got two major reserve wins on that trip. He passed his Canine Good Neighbour test on June 5th as well.

We had a great Spring – our beautiful Kai (MBISS Am.Can.Ch. Whimsy’s Swiftsure Kilo Kai) is now an American GRAND Champion –
finishing very quickly with six majors and several BOB’s over top ranked specials. Her brother, Cruz (Ch. Whimsy’s Swiftsure Cruzan Gold)
finished his American Championship in grand style with his third major – a BOB from the classes (entry of 50) for 5 points!
Cruz and Kai are always breeder/owner/handled.
Summer has started out with a bang – Kai and Cruz each won a Best in Specialty Show (each entered in one), and the next day Kai followed up
with a lure coursing placement and a Best in Field Trial Conformation show!

judging critique
The Canadian National Specialty Weekend
The four days of May 31 - June 3 were a big Whippet weekend in Ontario.
There was one all-breed show each day, all held at the Caledonia Fairgrounds, plus
two independent specialties (the Great Lakes Whippet Club on June 1st, and the
National Whippet Club of Canada on June 2nd), followed by the Gazehound
Ontario specialty on June 3rd. I believe there was lure coursing in a different
location as well, but was not able to participate in any of that.
There were seven opportunities for Whippets to compete in conformation
over four days, even more if you include the specialty and all-breeds sweepstakes.
I’m not sure how many participated in all the shows, but staying active certainly
would help both dogs and people to stay warm, if not dry: it rained a lot over the
weekend, and although the sun came out for a few minutes every now and then it
was much colder and windier than most Whippets would appreciate.
On the day before the national, while judging a Borzoi specialty, I had to keep
my eyes away from the Whippets, which was not easy, as they were everywhere
– easily the biggest breed of the weekend. Entries varied from around 20-30 at
the all-breed shows to 60 at the regional specialty, 67 at the national and 49 at the
Sighthound show, and most of the BOB winners at the all-breed shows seemed to
go on to win the Hound group as well. More about that later.
The national specialty started with Dee Laurie Beaumont judging sweepstakes.
The name didn’t ring a bell at first, but I soon realized we had met before: she’s
the daughter of Audrey Benbow of the famous old Sirhan Borzoi and herself the
owner of some top Whippets of the past, including the English imports Am. Can.
Ch. Leatty Court Marshall (#1 Whippet USA 1968) and Am. Can. Ch. Cherann
China Clipper of Oakbark (#1 Whippet Canada 1997), and Ch. Stoney Meadows
Sound of Music from the U.S. Her Best in Sweepstakes winner was Snow Hill
Fine Feathers, with BOS to Ch. Dragonsong’s Single Malt.
THE REGULAR CLASSES
It was my pleasure and honor to judge the regular classes at the national
specialty. There was a very impressive trophy table, a large grass ring, efficient
stewards, beautiful dogs and courteous exhibitors – and the rain miraculously
stayed away almost all the way through the national specialty judging. What more
can you ask for? The dog classes were not particularly well filled (why is it that
bitches are ALWAYS so much more numerous, and usually also much better, than
the males in our breed?), but I was delighted with my WD, a black with white
trim, Am. Ch. Snow Hill Dakota Bad Sneakers (Ch. Sporting Fields Hot Topic
x Snow Hill N Dakota Ivy League). He won pretty comfortably on his clean
outline,
beautiful neck, excellent proportions, general soundness and superior movement.
If I was going to criticize him I’d like a little more spring of pasterns, but he’s a top
class dog who should be a credit to the breed anywhere. I hear he left for a new
home in Sweden immediately after the weekend.
>>
WD / BOS
Best Puppy
RWD was the brindle & white Junior Puppy, Lightfalls On Willowisp’s Flight of
the Navigator (Ch. Plumcreek Hollowell Go Forth x Willowisp’s Belle Star), a very
attractive youngster of great promise with exceptional sidegait. No less than four of
his litter sisters were also shown, the best one winning the Junior Puppy Bitch class
as well as WB at the subsequent Sighthound show.
Incidentally, the catalogs of course do not list any AKC titles, but I have added
those I’m fairly sure of.
There were a number of beautiful bitch classes, especially Bred By Exhibitor,
but I had no hesitation in awarding WB to a black brindle with white trim,
Forgetmenot Miss Take (Ch. Forgetmenot Guardian Angel x Ch. Tylko Ty Viking’s
Poetry). She gave me my first goose bump moment simply by her presence,
standing there on her own and demonstrating what to me are ideal Whippet
proportions: a beautiful, sweeping topline with sufficient length and just enough
rise over the loin, excellent angulation at both ends, a long, muscular, crested neck,
and excellent substance. She moved very well also, although she lost out a little in
co-ordination and carriage when competing for BOB; I understand she’s not been
shown much, but she is a born showgirl with great charisma. I hope she will do
well in the future. She was also BOW.
RWB was a tougher choice; I finally settled on the very young Cariad’s Full
Moon Party (Ch. Cariad’s The Full Monty x Ch. Cariad-N-Wolfhaven We Believe),
who I felt was the best complete package of those in contention: very appealing,
excellent proportions and substance, correct in all the essentials, and sound
movement. She was also beautifully presented.
There was one terrific Veteran Dog, Ch. Lishima’s Iron Man (Ch. Airescot Gold
Field x Lorricbrook High Spirit), who showed with more enthusiasm than most
youngsters, moved with drive and had excellent proportions. It was very close
between him and the best Veteran Bitch, the classy brindle Ch. Devonair’s Mabel
(Ch. Byerley Savile Row x Ch. Devonair’ Dharma), who I was reminded did well
under me in a big Puppy class at the AWC National in 2006.
THE SPECIALS CLASS
WB / BOW
The specials class, with Veterans, WD and WB (Winners Male and Female in
Canada) filled the large, beautiful ring: if I counted right there were 30 dogs in all.
After an initial go-around I temporarily excused the bitches and whittled the males
down to a half dozen or so, and then made a competition for Best Male between
WD and the only 8-months old white and light fawn Ch. Manorcourt Set
Precedent (Ch. Chelsea Coturri at Lorricbrook x Ch. Lorricbrook Mallymaloe).
He lost out to WD for BOS only on maturity, can go far and reminded me a lot of
the old Laguna dogs (in a modern package, naturally), which is about the highest
>>
praise I can give. He was later also Best Puppy.
It was interesting to hear afterwards that Espen Engh, who judged the Great
Lakes specialty the previous day, had narrowed it down to the same two dogs, but
placed them in the opposite order: the puppy champion was BOS and the black
WD got an Award of Merit. I gave BOS to the Winners Dog and Best Puppy to
the young champion.
The bitches offered more, and more difficult, choices, although frankly I knew
she would be hard to beat as soon as I had gone over Ch. Snow Hill Onyx at
Stoneledge and seen her sail around the ring. This is a bitch I’ve admired from
ringside several times; I judged her just a few months ago but have never seen
her look better than this day. She’s nearly five years old now and perhaps not in
as hard condition as she has been, but she was so smooth, so shiny and above all
possessed just about the best Whippet movement anyone could ask for. She is
difficult to fault point by point, with a lovely head on top of a long, crested neck, a
wonderful front, topline and body, an excellent, strong rear, and a short, glossy coat
that shone like satin. However, her movement is really her best point, especially
on a day like this when she was obviously having a great time and KNEW she was
beautiful. The way she flowed around the ring made it impossible to deny her:
clean, smooth and utterly effortless. I’m glad I got a chance to judge her again and
grateful for another goose bump moment. She was my very worthy SBIS winner.
BOB
There were at least half a dozen other really top class bitches, and only three
Awards of Merit to hand out. The WB pushed hard, but although I felt she was
extremely competitive even at this level it seemed a pity not to honor as many of
the lovely champions as possible.
The trio of bitches I selected in the end is rather disparate in ‘family type’, but
I’ve never felt it’s the judge’s duty to select cookie-cutter dogs, or to put up only
those that happen to look like the judge’s own dogs. Good Whippets can fit the
standard even though their strongest points may differ a bit.
My eye was immediately drawn to the tall, stunning young Ch. Lorricbrook
More Than Real (Ch. Chelsea Coturri at Lorricbrook x Lorricbrook Keeping It
Real), white and light brindle. She is not yet 18 months old and obviously has a
great career ahead of her. She presented perhaps the most eye-catching silhouette
of all, with a long neck, sweeping outline and extremely well-angulated rear –
almost too sweepy even for me (which is saying something), but she handled all
her angles really well on the move. She could perhaps be a little more feminine.
Another easy choice was the orange brindle & white Ch. Jetstream Forgetmenot Tigerpaw (Ch. Talk of the Nation de Sud x Ch. Foregetmenot Glamore):
very charismatic and curvy, fully mature, with wonderful substance and an
excellent mover. She is perhaps not as long cast as I would really prefer, but
she’s extremely well balanced and so well put together it’s difficult to criticize
her point by point. She was also Best Bred by Exhibitor.
The third Award of Merit went to the day’s ‘problem child’, Ch. Aikerskaill In
A NY Minute (Ch. Bohem Just In Time x Ch. Aikerskaill Miss Independence),
perhaps the most feminine and the best size of them all, just a little model of
what a Whippet bitch should be with excellent proportions. However, she never
really got her act together and seemed more disturbed by the cold and wind than
the others. When she came back after BOB to compete for Best Canadian-Bred
she relaxed, showed much better and won this award quite deservedly. She’s only
18 months old and should be interesting to watch as she matures.
The ‘Best Sexually Altered’ award went to Ch. Wheatenridge Baccarat Endora,
best Stud Dog was Ch. Cariad’s The Full Monty, best Brood Bitch went to
Ch. Forgetmenot Glamore, and best Lure Coursing to the previously mentioned
Ch. Devonair’s Mabel.
>>
THE REST OF THE WEEKEND
I am indebted to Lorraine Burch for results of the other BOB winners
during the weekend. At the all-breed shows, Thursday’s BOB under Australian
judge John Bink (as well as Group 1st & BIS) went to Ch. Festiva’s No Excuse
(Ch. Bohem Just In Time x Ch. Festiva’s Whats Your Excuse). Friday’s BOB
(& Group 1st) under Dr. Jim Sillers of the U.S. was Ch. Lorricbrook Albelarm
Believer (Ch. Sporting Fields Spot On at Albelarm x Ch. Albelarm Lorricbrook
Finesse), who was not shown at the specialties. Saturday’s BOB (& Group 1st)
under Carlos Fernandez-Renau of Spain was Ch. Lorricbrook More Than Real
(mentioned above); and Sunday’s BOB (and Group 3rd) under Eugene Blake of
the U.S. was the WD at both specialties, Ch. Snow Hill Dakota Bad Sneakers
(mentioned above).
BOB at the Great Lakes Whippet Club specialty under Espen Engh of
Norway the day before the national was the only 8-months-old Snow Hill Fine
Feathers (Ch. Sporting Fields Spot On at Albelarm x Ch. Snow Hill Onyx
at Stoneledge). I’m told her dam, my SBIS winner, received an AOM; she was
only shown at the two specialties. Finally, at the Gazehound Ontario show
on Sunday, BOB was Ch. Lorricbrook Fascination (Ch. Chelsea Coturri at
Lorricbrook x Ch. Albelarm Lorricbrook Fancy Me).
It was a very busy weekend for Whippet people in Canada. The numbers
may not be as large as we’re used to at the AWC national specialties, but as
anyone who has studied the lists of top winners in the U.S. knows, the top
Canadian dogs are as good as the best anywhere else.
The hospitality and kindness of the Canadian fanciers was outstanding;
I had a great time and enjoyed seeing so many Whippet lovers, some of whom
I’ve met before and some who were new acquaintances.

• Canadian Championship with a Specialty BOB from the classes
• Two Specialty BOS awards (to his sister)
• Third time out as a Special – Specialty Best in Show, LMWA, July 7th,
Judge Ann Billups
DogShots 2012
• American championship with 3 majors, including a 5 pt. BOB from the
classes (entry 50) over top specials to finish. Along the way he won 3
specialty WD awards (Judges John Shelton, Donna Lynch and Susan Badick).
On the two occasions that he was measured – he was IN both times.
Cruz has been a lot of fun to show with his flawless movement,
stunning body and charismatic showmanship.

Whippet, The Amongst all varieties of dogs the
Whippet has always had to take a back seat, originally
because it was mainly in the hands of colliers and the
artisan class, more especially in Lancashire where
whippet racing was a favourite pastime.
As to how or when these dogs first came into
existence there is nothing of a reliable nature to show.
Built on the lines of a racing dog or greyhound, the
manufacturer must have had in view the production
of a dog suitable for fast work on a limited course;
in short, a modification of the work required from
a greyhound. The generally accepted theory
regarding the making of the Whippet is that it is a
cross between the Greyhound and Terrier, which
is quite a tenable view.
The term “snap dog” is synonymous with that of
whippet. The collier has always maintained a
predilection for this breed, and his Sunday morning
racing thrills have been, and still are, the most
delightful pleasures so dear to him. At the present
time whippet racing as a Sunday morning sport is
fast becoming an institution in London.
Darlington was the first show to introduce a class for
these dogs under the title of snap dogs. It was not
until 1899 that the Whippet Club was established,
and the good work that it has done is still carried on.
As to what variety of terrier was used in the “make up”
of the whippet, evidence favours the view that some
sort of rough or broken-haired terrier was employed.
Rough-coated whippets were first of all produced, but
those in the know soon found out that a smooth, fine
coat was more suitable to the dog for racing purposes.
The evidence of the rough-coated dog is commonly
seen in the tails of some whippets. This alone is
reliable evidence of a rough-coated dog being part of
the breed’s early ancestry.
Avoid overfeeding, as a fat whippet is useless either
for show or racing. No special feeding is necessary
beyond a little meat and table scraps, hound meal, etc.
No matter how produced originally, the Whippet is a
soundly constructed greyhound in miniature, and one
that breeds fairly true to type on all occasions. Any
colour is admissible, of which there is a wide range;
a few are white. The coat should be close and of fine
texture. Height for dogs 18-1/2 in., and bitches
about 1 in. less. The front limbs should be perfectly
straight and the pasterns strong, but not too upright.
In passing, it may be as well to mention that particular
attention must be paid to the nails. These must not
be allowed to grow too long, but trimmed unless the
dog has plenty of exercise on hard roads. If the nails
are too long they are liable to split and also prevent
the feet from bearing their proper share of weight.
Make good use of the file if needful to do so.
Most Whippets live in the domestic circle, where they
make excellent pals.
Mr Maine Tucker writes on the Whippet as follows:
The whippet is a greyhound in miniature, standing
about 17 to 30 (typo in book?) in. from the ground; it
must not be confused with the Italian Greyhound
which is a smaller dog about 12 in. from the ground.
The whippet is a very graceful animal and deserves to
be popular, well adapted to the house or to take part
in the sport of whippet racing, which sport is
becoming more and more popular. There are rough
and smooth-coated whippets, but the rough coated is
now nearly extinct and is never seen on a show bench.
The head should be long and clean in its outline, flat
on the skull and wide between the eyes, which latter
ought to be large and lustrous. Small ears, a long
and muscular neck, a deep chest and long oblique
shoulders are essentials in a Whippet, whilst broad,
well-arched loins, plus long and muscular first and
second thighs are equally important. The feet should
be thick and cat-like; tail long, tapering, and nicely
carried on a level with the hocks. A whippet should
stand over a lot of ground and be the quintessence of
agility, alertness, and constitutionally sound.
In order to keep the coat fine and in pristine
condition, all whippets should wear a rug in winter
and a calico one in summer.
To ensure that this dog shall have its “bellows” in full
working order all the year round, regular running
exercise daily is the first essential.
>>
The ideal weight for the show dog is 20 lbs. for bitches
and 21 lbs. for dogs, and the height 17-1/2 for one and
18-1/2 for the other; a slight deviation either way is
allowed.
The head line a snake.
The neck like a drake.
The back like a beam.
The long and lean head should be rather wide between
the eye and flat at the top; the jaw powerful and clean
cut; eyes bright and fiery; ears small, fine in texture and
rose shaped.
The side like a bream.
The tail like rat.
The feet like a cat.
The neck is long and muscular, elegantly arched, and
free from throatiness. Shoulders sloping and muscular,
chest deep and roomy. Back broad and square, rather
long and slightly arched over the loins, which should be
strong. Forelegs rather long, set well under the dog, and
having a fair amount of bone. Hind-quarter strong and
broad across. Stifles well bent; hocks well let down; feet
round; tail long and tapering; coat fine and close.
The origin of the Whippet is not quite clear, but it
is generally thought that he was a cross between a
greyhound and a terrier; this would account for the few
rough-coated whippets still to be seen on the running
track. Here, perhaps a word about the Whippet as
a race dog would not be out of place. The make and
shape must be carefully considered, and also the strain
from which the animal is bred. Blood will tell in the
same way with whippets as in horse racing, so therefore
always look out for something nearly thoroughbred,
and with the right blood in their veins.
The old description of the Greyhound may be takes as a
good description of the Whippet: -
As a house dog he is now becoming very popular, a
nice size, very affectionate, clean about the house in all
weathers on account of his height from the ground,
and he makes a good watch-dog without being vicious;
not a fighter, but very sporting.
There is a mistake idea amongst a great many that the
Whippet is a delicate dog, and I should like to say most
emphatically that he is not. The probably reason for
this erroneous idea is that one very often sees the
Whippet wearing a rug, but this is only when he is
going to compete in a racing handicap, and every care
has then to be taken of him. My own experience is that
he is far from delicate. I have always found him to be an
all-round sporting dog and an excellent companion.

true story about
whippets
Most of you have met me, Sally Forseth. Ticket,
Tattle, Elly May, Sarah and Lilah are my whippets.
We are never in the money at the show or
coursing. We are just there to help others get
points. I have always said if I had a kennel it would
be called NBQ.
There are two in my life right now I am so proud
of. I gave them titles. CH Trail dogs. Ticket and
Lilah.
I have been on four camping trips this year
with the horse and these two dogs. Ticket is a
seasoned trail dog. This year is Lilah’s first.
Living with whippets at home every day is
comforting. Living with two good ones on the
road is better.
These two dogs know me better than myself.
They spend hours waiting. In the truck or in
the trailer or laying around in camp. They have
portable beds, chew things, food, freedom,
responsibility, water and me.
When we saddle up and head out of camp to
ride they are right there. Looking up at me,
ready. Nothing gives me more happiness or
pleasure than seeing them loose on the trail
amongst several horses and other dogs. It is
a survival game for them. They are on their own
down there in the mud, long grass, steep banks,
hot long trots across fields or cold, wet down
pour.
They mind their own business and keep going.
Several times in the past I have had a girlfriend
pass Ticket up to me so I can cross a freezing fast
river with her on the front of my saddle. She sits
tight and doesn’t move. Eyes are a little buggy
but she knows she will be lifted off shortly on the
other side.
Many extra miles are put on chasing chipmunks
and squirrels on the rides.
If I stop, dismount for a pee, guess who has to
pee too? When I am finished they pee on my pee.
Ticket first, then Lilah.
When I stop for lunch with friends to chat and
rest, they do too. Flat out in the dirt. They know
they have to recharge. They don’t share lunch or
my attention with any other dogs. They eat, drink
and rest.
Back at camp they find a place to lay where they
can see me. I cook dinner for the three of us and
have a couple of drinks. Gather with the other
girls and potluck it.
Ticket and Lilah love me and respect me. In my
eyes they are the perfect dogs. What is in a dog
to be so loyal to one human? It amazes me all
the time that they want to be with me. They are
always looking up and checking with me.
We sleep together in the trailer. Usually one of us
has thrown the covers off to sleep upside down.
I check the two of them for cuts and ticks. They
love life and adventure. I smile and think how can
we live like this forever.
Living outdoors, looking after ourselves and
enjoying nature. I have a few great friends and
being with them and my animals sharing the same
enjoyment is a good life.
>>
There is a friend I travel with. She has a huge wall
tent we set up for her to live in. When Ticket
sees that tent set up she gets wiggly. She asks to
go over. I say Okay, off she goes over to Philippa’s
tent. Goes in and sniffs everything and checks the
bed and the groceries. She comes out with a big
smile and hopes that I will drag our bedding in
there too. It is the cutest thing.
Philippa has dogs but doesn’t bring them on these
trips. She is organized and calm. Sets everything
in place and takes the time to write a journal each
trip. I think Ticket feels the calm and finds things
always in the same place.
I, on the other hand, fly by the seat of my
pants and change things around depending on
the weather. The horse is usually priority when
arriving. So again the dogs have to wait and
wonder where we are going to be and when they
are going to be fed.
I hope all of you have a fun filled summer.
Enjoy yourself where ever you are. Hopefully
your dogs are there too. Next time you look
into their little faces, appreciate the love.
This snippet of terrible writing does come from
my heart. I wanted to share something that
means a lot. A dog’s love. WW
