As I had always wanted a parti-colour, after two solid brindles, Patch was it from birth. He turned out to be a beautiful, handsome boy. He is a very loving, gentle, special dog. He loves playing with tennis balls and rope toys. He is always ready for a love and will shower you with kisses.
Patch has a beautiful �old fashion� English Whippet head, which I love. He also has a beautiful shape with no exaggeration. He had a successful show career with 9 CC�s, 9 RCC's, numerous Best Of Breeds, Group placings and Reserve Best of Breeds. Patch was owner handled to his championship at around 2 years of age. He qualified for Junior Dog of the Year in 1998 with the most Whippet male best puppy awards. He won the Junior Hound Group in August 1998 at the Zululand Kennel Club All Breeds Championship Show.
Special Wins include: * CC and RBOB (Alec McKenzie - UK) * CC & BOB, Grp 3 (Mrs L Bell - SA) * CC & BOB (Mr M Hughes-Hall - SA) * CC & BOB (Mr L Morrison - SA) * CC & BOB (Mrs R Glaysher - SA) * CC (Mr SJ Pollock - UK) * RCC (Mr N Newton - Nevedith Whippets UK)
Unfortunately due to financial constraints with our emigration to New Zealand in 2002 we had to rehome Patch. He is now loved by Anna Pettifer who also took his litter sister, Nikki. The two of them go on lovely long walks with Anna and are spoilt by her being home all day with them. |
