    Whippet Advice Please

    Hi Lynnie I bought Otis home when he was 8 weeks and looking back now wonder whether I should have left him with his mum for another week or so. He came from a litter of 12 and I think it was a big move coming to a home with no other dogs. He was very tiny and didnt settle at night in his...

    Curious Whippet - Horses!!

    Hi I too have a horse and my whippet Otis was introduced to him very early on. He is very sensible around him and hacks out with me in the forest. I have had a friend who was attacked on her horse by a dog and can in a small way sympathise with the rude woman - I am not condoning her bad...

    Whippet Advice Please

    Hi Lynnie I have one whippet - Otis who is now 7 1/2 months old. When he came home he was moving in with 6 cats! I was more worried for Otis than the cats and I trimmed my cats front claws so they would not be able to do as much damage if they scratched him - especially in his eyes. Two of...

    Feeding And Weight Advice Please!

    Hi Esty I am glad I am not the only one that gets worried about lean puppies. I had Otis weighed the other day when I was at the vets and he was 9.5kg and he is six months old. He is extremely fussy with his dinners and I find a lot of things make his poos a bit runny. Currently he only eats...

    Hi Lynda I am in Auckland. I wasnt too sure if the whippet club was just for people who wanted to show/race their whippets. I am not sure of Otis's pedigree - he wasn't purchased from a registered breeder - but I believe her bitch is a registered whippet. There was a lady on Trade Me selling...
