Mae appears to have gone into a sulk :( . She had a night staying at a friend’s house on Friday and was fine Saturday night when I got her back, we went straight to my parents for a family do and stayed the night there. On Sunday she was so tired she just slept all afternoon when we go...

Mae is in season for the first time and bleeding quite a lot (started last Wednesday). I know that the length of time a bitch bleeds is on average 7 – 10 days but it can be for the entire 3 weeks :blink: . Are whippets prone to lengthy bleeding stages during a season or is it completely...

Mae has an injury to her hip and after a visit to the vet last night is on anti-inflammatory tablets and rest for the next 10 days (seems easier said than done at the minute) :( . I have been resting her since Sunday anyway and keep doing lots of extra basic training and tricks with her to...

I have just been out for a long walk with Mae; we were having a great time and she had been off the lead most of the way round and was being impeccably behaved, I really couldn’t fault her. We turned a corner and Mae was on a field having a sniff around and for some reason, and I really have no...

Jake is a 9 year old Springer spaniel looking for a loving permanent home due to the hospitalisation of his owner. His owner works for the same company as me as has recently been taken into hospital leaving poor Jake to be looked after by friends and neighbours, as his owners recovery is likely...

Mae has a sensitive stomach and has tried a number of quality foods to no avail (Note: If anyone is in the Peterborough area and wants a free unopened bag of James Wellbeloved Lamb and rice puppy food let me know :teehee: ). She is now on a vet prescribed food, which needless to say is very...

Are all Whippets wimps or just good at trying to get the sympathy vote? I had the day off yesterday and thought it would be a good chance to get out in the garden and paint the fence. Me and Mae had been out for a long walk and she had pottered around quite nicely for the rest of the day...

I was out for a walk with Mae my little whippet, a friend and her lab on Sunday. The dogs had been swimming an Mae had eaten what seemed to be half a picnic someone had kindly left on the grass (no idea what was in it or how long it had been there) :x , we were having a great time. Mae loves...

Mae was a total disgrace on our walk last night. :( I take out every night when I get home from work to let her have a good run and burn off some steam, she is only 7 months but I have been working on her off lead recall since she was only 3 to 4 months and generally she has been very good...

I am after a bit of advice on spaying my whippet She is coming up for 7 months and has not yet had her first season, I have always with past dogs (not whippets) waited until after, but my vet has said that it would not be a problem to have her done before she comes into season for the first...

Having read another post, I have been thankfully reassured to find that mine is not the only whippet to cause extreme humiliation. My mum and I took Mae for a walk on Monday for my day off; it was a lovely warm sunny day so thought this would make a nice change to take her to the grounds of...

Mae, my whippet puppy, seems to have found a new best friend in my neighbour’s cat Molly. Mae will follow the cat around and the cat follows Mae, it is really quite cute and has alleviated much of the fear I had of having to one day explain to my neighbours where the cat went and becoming a...

After years of wanting a dog of my own I got my first Whippet puppy a couple of months ago. She is now coming up for 4 ½ months and it is safe to say choosing to get a whippet is perhaps one of the best decisions I have made. I wondered however, if I could get some advice on a couple of points...
