Whippet Breed

Despite their thin appearances, Whippets possess hearty spirits. Excellent runners with tremendous speed, they have participated in various kinds of races over the years. Originally a mix of Greyhound and a variety of Terriers, the breed reached its present state with the infusion of Italian Greyhound blood.

Because of their moderate weight and gentle dispositions, Whippets remain popular show dogs and pets. They serve as attentive watchdogs, but will not bark without cause. Although they require regular exercise, Whippets are loving, kind and adaptable pets, able to live in a city or the country.
