  • Whippet Behavior

    Whippets are typically friendly dogs. They are calm, reserved, and willing to approach strangers. Their gentle behavior makes them properly suited as therapy dogs for the people in hospitals.

    Whippets are not meant to be kept outside. They are better suited to live indoors due to their thin coats which do not provide much warmth. They can also form attachments to people and do not like being apart from their owners.

    Although Whippets spend a lot of time sleeping and resting, they are highly athletic dogs that can participate in various activities. It is also important that Whippets receive a proper amount of exercise to maintain good health.Onyxxwhippets.com: Whippet Information
