My Whippet has this hilarious habit of doing the 'Zoomies' right after a bath. He races around the house like a crazed race car, bouncing off furniture. It’s messy, but we all end up laughing.

I generally trust my Silken off leash, especially in safe, fenced areas. They love to run, and their instinct to chase can be strong, so supervision is key. I keep them on a leash in busy places.

My Whippet has the same two personalities! One moment he's a snuggly couch potato, and the next, he's sprinting like the wind.

answer · Whippet

Absolutely, a coat helps.

answer · Whippet

Yes, they're great!

answer · Whippet

Definitely, mine does it too. It's amazing how fast they can switch gears.

answer · Whippet

I've had some success with recall, but it requires a lot of reinforcement. Mine loves to run, and if he spots something interesting, it's like the world disappears. Positive reinforcement works wonders, and regular training sessions are key. Just keep in mind that sighthounds can be a bit willful, so don't get discouraged!

answer · Whippet

Yes, go for it! Just be ready for their bursts of energy.

answer · Whippet

I can relate! My Silken Windhound always stretches out on my side of the bed too. They seem to thrive on closeness and warmth. It's adorable but can be a bit cramped at times! I’ve tried different bedding options, but she just loves being right next to me.

answer · Whippet

I wouldn't risk it.
