A friend of mine went with a mostly white whippet she spent most of the day carrying him round to keep him clean or her husband did. Mind you they were rewarded when he won the dog CC.

Thats the only good thing about whippets we start early and have a ring to ourselves some time 2 judges unfortunately the size of the entries makes it hard to qualify for crufts. At Birmingham National I only took a greyhound we were in the schedule at one time on the paper that came with the passes at another time and in the catalogue at another time we eventually went in the ring at 3.30pm having arrived at 9am expecting to be in early and we were in the tents were it was sweltering too
