Whippets Explained For Non-Whippet Owners
There are dogs… and then there are whippets. If you’ve never owned one, you probably expect something elegant, calm, and relatively normal, which is a very convincing first impression. Lets talk about what it’s actually like.

Hey, fellow dog fanciers and whippeteers! My name is Addie, proudly owned by 6 gorgeous whippets currently (10 throughout the years), and I have been surrounded by pets since day 1. The world of show dogs, dog shows and responsible breeding has been keeping me busy since the age of 12 and this channel is especially created to educate on these controversial topics.

Can you explain your puppy routine?
My next dog will be a Whippet❤️
You described my Rosey perfectly 😊
Hilarious,
Great video ❤️
So you're saying don't get one then ?
My whippets listened to this video and said that they now feel judged and personally insulted. Of course they are the boss. And blankets are obviously a basic life necessity!
I got a whippet in march
Absolutely adore her but i need help with 'redirected aggression' between my cats. Ever since the puppy arrived 2 months ago, my 11-year-old senior cats have been extremely stressed. Not only are they hitting the puppy, but they’ve started attacking each other too. I want to make sure my cats feel safe in their own home. What steps can I take to de-escalate this after 2 months of tension? We are already using baby gates and a crate, but the atmosphere is still 'war-like'. Any advice?😊
Hahaha 😂 Italian greyhounds are same!
They're a bloody nightmare. 😂
I have a staffy x whippet oh yeah that mix of breeds, Who the hell thought that was a good idea? Two whimpy, cold intolerant personal space stealing (Affectionately) idiots put in one dog
She's clingy, Blanket stealing, Constantly cold during winter, Won't go out without a coat, Has bad allergies, Half naked lacking fur, High prey drive, Whiny…
Backyard breeders I swear…
I am a happy lurcher servant.
((She's a rescue))
I don't have whippets. I have two chihuahua's (inherited) and a great Pyrenees/boxer
But apparently, according to this video, I have three whippets 😂
“They’re not stupid, but you most likely are.” 💀 Literally every dog I’ve ever owned.
You are so beautifully and humorously descriptive. Thank you dear one.
My old dog was a whippet x bedlington terrier cross so this video is very relatable! Sadly not able to own a dog currently, but if/when I am whippets are top of my list
so this just proves that there is huge overlap between cat and dog behavior. Being staff for an eccentric sounds like certain cats.
Can you do a video about „guard dogs/ breeds”? I mean, they live often in different conditions then „normal” pet dogs (for examle the entire life in the garden), but they are still DOGS with the same species-specific needs.
Honestly, I love your content and appreciate it so much, since not only has it educated me about ethical breeding and what purebred really means, but I enjoy learning about Whippets, and this video was especially enjoyable. Your sense of humor is great! I'll probably never get a Whippet, since you've given a very honest assessment of their temperament, and I'm not sure that they'd work for me, but boy, they are cute, and I love every one I see. So thank you for educating me and letting me know that even though this breed is adorable and I love them, they're not for me.
My boy is 10 years old and he loves to look me in the eyes and pretend he just became deaf😂😂😂😂 But as soon as I touch the snack bag he runs for his life to get first 😂😂😂 I live with 2 whippets and one italian greyhound ❤
I love it when you say “they judge you.” It’s true that the very particular look some of them give you can be quite unsettling. 🤔🤔 It’s hard to interpret at first. Afterwards, you just laugh about it…😄
Whippet good!
There is no explaining them.
I had heard people call sighthounds "gateway dogs to cat people". I think I understand why now 😂
