Say Hi to William
Whippet, 10 years old
He came from K9 Focus .
My favourite thing about William is...
His ability to make you smile, his quirky, loving personality, his origami ears, his "princess Diana" eyes that look down his pointy nose. Oh and his "naughty spots" Love everything about him, he's a snuggle monster, knows his own mind.and makes his opinions known.
The biggest challenge with William is...
Getting him to go out when it's too wet, too cold, too windy, too hot. Keeping weight on him. Nail clipping.
The most surprising thing about owning a Whippet is...
How many people think they are greyhounds!!!! Seriously I was not expecting such a loving clown.
What I wish I’d known about Whippets is...
Nothing really. Personality wise in my experience they are loyal, needy, stubborn & independent all at the same time!!!!! They have delicate skin & limbs, and because they love the obligatory just for fun zoomies, have a high prey drive they will plunge through brambles, woods etc without a second thought, they are more prone to cuts and grazes than many other breeds.
Did you know?
Whippets are super quiet dogs and some owners say theirs doesn’t ever bark!
