Ever since been a kid Iv always wanted to have a litter of pups but life has always been to busy or our bitch was not right for breeding, any way yesterday my Whippet Bitch gave birth to 5 beautiful pups all different colours 3 girls and 2 boys , I am over the moon I was up for 31 hours with her and enjoyed every minute of it both mum and pups are doing grate I can’t stop watching them ,
My friends want a dog and a Bitch ( the reason I breed her )

Gosh that's quite a variety of colours.  What were the parents - there's about 40 colours recognised by teh KC.  Most I've seen on any Breed Standard.  We've got 5, but in clear and roan, so effectively 10 possibles.  Hope they all do well.

Congratulations! I'm a little bit envious as I've never had a bitch suitable for breeding from. We would have liked to have taken a litter off Gwenna but she's just not a good enough example of the breed. But we still love her, little minx that she is.
