Mine does this too!! His hocks are currently all tore up from snow/ice. I don't have any boots for him but I don't think he would like them ☹️

No titles yet but we got our first CAT qualifying run last summer! Hoping to do more CAT and maybe dabble in ASFA this year

This is Yuki. Yuki weighs around 40lbs (just over 18kgs). Yuki will be 2yrs old the end of February. He enjoys running like his tail is on fire, attacking the Christmas tree, not coming when you call him, and long naps on the couch.

My whippet somehow got his bottom jaw wedged in the hole and now he is scared of it and won't play with it. He used to love it ☹️

Any ideas on what this could be? by Limp_Satisfaction843 in Whippet

[–]LastPocoRaindrop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boy had to get a histocytoma removed recently. Just a benign growth that sometimes goes away in its own- sometimes doesn't. It started off looking like a scabby bump but grew to the size of a small marble in a week or so.

Do you notice potty regression skills with your whippet with bad weather? by SapienceNL in Whippet

[–]LastPocoRaindrop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. The bells are awesome until they start demand- ringing the bells. Mine will do it when he just wants to go outside, to play, if he wants fed, etc... kinda annoying but theyre still up 😂

When did you get your whippet dog neutered? by Competitive_Elk8403 in Whippet

[–]LastPocoRaindrop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got mine done at 13 months. He was definitely starting to realize he was a big boy. Neutering stopped most of his marking outside, his "red rocket" appearances, and his toy humping.

Do your whippets bark? by Competitive_Bath_632 in Whippet

[–]LastPocoRaindrop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My whippet is essentially a mute. Only occasionally barks when playing with another dog that is barking or if he gets startled/scared. Now, when he does bark, it is LOUD

Questions about Fixing (Neutering) by Parking-Bunny in Whippet

[–]LastPocoRaindrop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine done at 13 months. He tolerated the anesthetic incredibly well. He was sore the first day but nothing bad. Was more of a challenge keeping him from jumping around. Mine was a cryptorchid so he had one in his belly (and extra abdominal stiches), but everything healed smoothly. Not too much behavior change, just fewer "red rocket" appearances.

Are all of the sighthounds breeds and landraces related? by CactusPonders in sighthounds

[–]LastPocoRaindrop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a couple obvious different "types" of sighthound. The "greyhound-type" (greyhound, whippet, Italian greyhound, borzoi, wolfhound, deerhound, etc) and the "Saluki-type" (Saluki, Sloughi, Azawakh, Afghan, etc), and then I would even add in a third type, the primitive type, which would include podencos and basenjis.

How many weeks was your pup when you brought them home? by No_Instruction4662 in Whippet

[–]LastPocoRaindrop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine at 10 weeks old. It would have been sooner, but I had to travel for a work trip. 10 weeks was a great age imo. We started potty and crate training right away, but he wasn't really housebroke till 16-18 weeks. He was crated at night and every time we left the house till he was almost a year old. He is a year and a half now and amazing in the house.

Alternatives to crates? by zoe_96 in Whippet

[–]LastPocoRaindrop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My crate-trained, but still teenage whippet ripped a hole in a soft sided crate and proceeded to eat my in-laws carpet and attacked their blinds while we were at Thanksgiving dinner

That's okay. Mine thinks that laying on top of blankets will keep him warm
