We have been breeders of whippets since 2006. Our dogs have excelled in Agility and Lure Coursing and have great robust temperaments, making them wonderful, loving pets and great sporting companions.
Our original lines are based on very old Australian lines (Hydale & Gayregal) and we are excited to have two new girls, Allgard Hot Wire on Fire (River) and Isilwane Blessid Union O Souls (Doris), join our small stud to carry on our breeding lines, while adding some more modern breeding.
River made her ALCA Lure Coursing debut with a stunning Best on Course and recently competed in her first ANKC trials for x2 Best JC Sighthound. We expect Doris, the daughter of two Dual Ch (LC), to be able to run the bags well as well. She is already showing drive in her puppy training and in her limited number of shows, has taken RCC from Minor Puppy, against Aust Sp Ch. bitches.
River and Doris join our very special home bred boy Rakaia Krocodile Hunter (Steven) who was one of the first dogs in WA to obtain a Lure Coursing Title. Unfortunately, Covid, a change in rules from needing 50 points to 100 points (Steven had gained 41) and the lack of judges in WA, meant that Steven missed out on his chance to obtain a F.Ch. title before age and a niggling toe injury saw him retired to the couch. We know his sporting quality regardless.
