11. Is there any dog or bitch, not owned or bred by you that you feel is an outstanding representative of the breed?
Ch Broadstrider By George, Ch Elysian A Few Perrier, Ch Sportingfield Hot Topic, Ch Morshor Majestic Prince
To name a few that I have used in my breeding program. These because of their beautiful shape and whippet type and effortless movement. There are many many beautiful whippets all over the country.
