My friend has asked me if I'd be interested in having hers! I'm so excited Grin been looking for an adult whippet for a while & not having much luck. Always had dogs and worked in kennels for a long time but not much experience of whippets what do I need to know?

Aww. My friend volunteers at a rescue and rehomes lots of whippets with minimum problems. They are lovely dogs

They are lovely. We have a whippet and a Beddy whippet.
Run like crazy, then come home and flop.

What is this dog a cross of?

ScariestFairyByFar · 14/03/2013 19:55

Not sure what she's a cross of something with pointy ears she's very whippety currently gets out very little lives in a flat with no garden and alone all day. So not expecting any massive issues as she'll come in the car with me except when its too hot so only ever be on her own for an hour or two and I only work 3 days.

Aw, a whippety lurcher Smile.

You'll need to work hard on recall, they may not do sit, and you'll need to find out about their prey drive. But they are one of the fastest couch potatos that you'll ever meet!

Yes the prey drive is not to be underestimated.
