Hello and welcome. Sorry I can't help you with your walks as I don't live in the area, sure someone else will know though! Any chance of some pics of Phoebe?

Hi Phoebe: Welcome to the boards! Well ............ if you love whippets & greyhounds - it seems you've found the right place! We are a local club, who meet informerly on the first Sunday of the month outside Sandra's cafe on Earlham Park at 2pm, and then all go for a walk around the park, before ending up at the cafe again, having a natter and a cup of tea. BUT - We do so, so much more than that. If you wish to join (£8.50 per person, or £10 for a family rate) - you will receive a monthly newsletter, keeping you in touch with events in Norfolk and Suffolk. During the summer, we have at least two meetings per month, and also usually end up attending other events (eg-local dogs shows etc), where we actively promote our club. We also have our first dog show planned for this year - Sunday 9th July, at the grounds of the Queen Elizabeth Hall, Worstead (near North Walsham, Norfolk). Please consider joining us, and getting your hounds out and about with us! Our next club meeting is tomorrow (18th June), and is our annual club picnic and walk - at Whitlingham Lake, Trowse, Norwich, meeting in the main car park at 11am. If you've nothing else planned - then please feel free to come down and meet us. Just keep your eyes out for people with whippets and greyhounds - and chance are - you've found us! Below: Our little girl "Lizzy" (aka "Sugar") at last years picnic. A very sleeping whippet!

Hi Kat, Lorna & Phoebe, It was nice to meet you at Whitlingham last week, hope you can make it to a Bark In The Park at Earlham Park soon (next one is July 2nd at 2pm) as we can let the dogs off and let them all have a good run together
