The Whippet is a medium-sized sighthound with elegant lines and gentle nature. Athletic and fast, they're built for speed but are surprisingly calm indoors. Affectionate, quiet, and adaptable, they're wonderful companions.
Daily exercise including opportunities to sprint keeps them happy. Their short coat is low-maintenance. Training should be gentle and positive. For families seeking an elegant, gentle companion who loves to run, the Whippet is perfect.
