Finally, Dogs 101 has done a segment on whippets, and it goes by fast…
Unfortunately they don’t let you embed the video, so you’ll have to click the link.
And an older Animal Planet video on whippets from Breed All About It.
Chanel wins hound group at Westminster. She beat out a greyhound named Erasmus. Apparently the last time a whippet won grand champ at Westminster was 1964. This year a scottish terrier seems to have won. Ridiculous!

That is one gorgeous bitch. She seems to be looking right at me in that photo.
The one thing Benjamin just can’t seem to manage is getting those ears flat back like that. He has very expressive ears.
Ian has worked hard to make the blog. It’s been awhile. But he has succeeded beyond his wildest dreams – he has made it to Friday Whippet Blogging! Huzzah!

This is another stormy weather-related post.
The whippets are going stir crazy during this series of winter storms. They go out for very short walks in the rain, and run back inside as quick as they can, but then they’ve had no exercise in a week. So they’re bouncing around. I hope the people downstairs don’t mind.
Whippets at Home. They don’t get to play outside all day at the nursery in the wet cold rainy winter weather.
Samuella has a new puppy, Butter, who likes to hang out with the whippets.
A classic pose, Benjamin lounging around with a blanket on top. Oh, those whippets.
If it’s Christmas then the dogs must have new coats.

I see it must have been warm out yesterday since the employees have all shed their coats. But not so warm for the dogs.
Jaxx is back and fully healed from his surgery after the run-in with the buck. You can barely even see the scars, and when the fur is all back I think you won’t even know.
Good boy.
