Good luck with this, muzzle sounds like a good idea.
I got the Whippet in my avatar from JR Whippet rescue in 1996, he'd been given up because of aggression problems / bit a young child in the house. It was soon clear that he loved play fighting so I suspect the previous owners had encouraged that behaviour. Obviously I turned my back on him the moment he started to play fight from then on. I also did the little things to continually show who's boss such as always going through door first. He did get a lot better though always retained an aggressive streak with other dogs that I had to control. Here's the thing though, he was and will always be the best whippet I've ever had. Good luck with yours, I'm sure perseverance will pay off.
