Default my new dog !!!

just picked her up today from a place where she was living a bit rough.
14 months old, hasnt got a name and never seen people or been on a lead.

Looks a good dog mate, Looks like a whippet? but can be confused with a greyhound or is it just me? lol

My pal used to have a whippet, loved to play and run about like a rocket, great nature!

might take a little time to get her trained but it will b worth the effort and patience

Lovly Dog, you see a lot of them living rough after they are a bit old due to not being able to race

Supposes to be a real loving dog too.

Lovely Mate, Looks like a Lurcher to me!

Ive got a Lurcher and she is good as gold..... Untill you let her off then she is off flat out across the fields.

Shes had a Couple of Rabbits a Squirrel and a few Magpies since we have had her (About 12 months)

She was an Ex Pikey dog that we rescued

i,ve never seen that before, well funny.

the dog is infact a lurcher. she is actually 7/8 greyhound 1/8 pitbull. notice how strong the head is compared to a greyhound or whippet.

when i say living rough i mean kept on the end of a 12 foot chain fastened to a hedge. she had dug a hole under an adjacent holly bush and that was home.

i am having a bit of difficulty getting her used to not being restrained and having straw to lie on, but at least she is coming to me now which is a big improvement in 24 hours.
