General Chat

We were woken once in the night to find Ria and Tina standing by the bed looking lost and falorn. It was difficult not to let. them stay, but. OH took them back downstairs and made them comfortable. Awoke this morning to discover they have joined us in the bedroom.
Somehow they
have managed to get through the unused cat flap, and open the doors. It's going to be a fun week. :-D :-D


# iamasuckerfordogs :-D

I love them. At least you don't see people being towed along by Whippets so walking them should be enjoyable. I've read the prey drive in them means they might not come back when called once they pick up a scent!! I would watch them arount cats as well as rabbits......they can run really fast!! lol. :-) I bet you won't want them to go home after a few days. :-D

dont they have delicate tums and cant have rich foods or be given large portions in one sitting......they have funny skinny tails,,,,,, :-D

they love lots of fuss and are intelligent.....my daughter had one a few years ago and all he wanted was praise and attention ..... :-D :-D

no rabbits dear badgers !!!

Well its different if you know them ...

They have just arrived they are adorable, we know them as they are OHs sisters. They have settled in beautifully xxx I am hooked.

I wouldn't worry too much Paula. They are renowned for their Laziness and will probably lol about all day......run if you ask them to but otherwise can't be asked......A friend of mine has some.


EDIT:-........PS.... Keep them away from rabbits unless they are cooked :-D.......The rabbits, that is!

Go for it!
I looked after two red Setters for a couple of weeks. Lost 5kg and it helped me get over losing one of our cats.
Sporting dogs love running so wear shoes to match.
Whippets are very(deleted) extremely friendly so choose hard wearing clothes. Very EZ to feed.
:-D

ps: there's no money in it you need to love animals

Don't do it !!!

just finished two weeks its been a bloody nightmare!!! and not worth the money for the effert needed even if you love dogs !


good luck as I guess its to late

Oh they are lovely dogs :-D.Love and Walkies and a few treats here and there.Do you already know the dogs?

Lol. That's the plan at the moment Shirley.

lots of long walkies would tire them out |

probably tire you out too !

OH and I will be dog sitting for a week, any tips or advice for caring for two Whippets would be gratefully received.
