very true! x

it is sad when you read stories.... i hope if we do decide to give a whippet or 2 a home it will be from somone with genuine reasons x

I think they have 'older pups and adults' due to the new owners returning through no fault if the whippets. Change in circumstances etc. Which I'm advised is actually a responsible breeder? I'm also not 100% on whether they rescue adults. I was told they occasionally have a few adults and older...

Thank you for your reply. My friend got her whippets from Billy so was definitely going to call him. Once we have decided for sure that we are in a position to home a whippet or two! It would be ideal if there were two whippets, used to each others company, both got on with kids etc! Would be a...

I'm in Glasgow x

Thank you. That's very helpful. I just didn't know if people were going to feel pestered and / or think we were time wasting if we didn't choose there and then. So thank you for your advice. Because we're hoping for a whippet (or two!) nearer 6months - 2 years, I think it's harder to speak to...

Thanks for all the advice. We're trying to do as much research as possible via forums, sites, friends with whippets etc. We are really wanting to make the right decision for the dog and our lifestyle. We thought about calling a local breeder but weren't sure if asking questions or visiting...

Thank you for all your advice. Definitely looking for a pet so will take all that into account re working lines etc. We would love to take on whippets up to 2 years, but breeder advice is still good to know and to have in the back of our minds. Thanks!

Whats the difference between certain 'types' of whippet? e.g. cornstalk etc???? I'm looking for a pet, not a working dog, so just wondering if I should take any of this into account? x

Thanks for your reply. That definitely makes sense. It is such a shame that we have to worry about dogs going into the wrong hands.... makes me sad :( I hope I can get a lovely dog or two at a price I can afford then.

So, myself and hubby have been seriously considering a lovely whippet (thank you all for your advice in my 'Newbie post'!). We've been looking on various rescue sites, preloved, epuz etc etc for a whippet(s) aged up to 1 year (maybe 2 yrs) who need a loving home. We've noticed a few 'free to...

Thank you everyone for your replies so far! Been very helpful. I think it will depend on the character of the do and the routine they then get accustomed to. However, we appreciate that a dog may not always want walked during the day, bit we would worry about comfort breaks and company? My...

Thanks everyone!! At the moment all I can think about is whippets!!! Some more questions we have... * We work full time but I'd be able to get home at lunch about twice per week, and we'd also invest in a dog walker. - how would this be for the dog? * We really feel ready for a dog and have...

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum! Myself and my husband are thinking of getting a whippet. We know quite a lot about the breed, but would love some advice and stories of those who already have whippet(s)! Is there anything we should know before we commit to a beautiful whippet? Anything...
