Trusting a Whippet off leash can really depend on their individual temperament and training. Mine is generally reliable, but I've had some close calls. Whippets are notorious for their speed and prey drive, so they may take off if they spot something interesting. I recommend starting in a secure area and gradually introducing them to more freedom as they prove they can listen. Consistent recall practice is vital. Overall, I’d say cautious optimism is key.

Trusting my Whippet off leash is a mixed bag. While she has a decent recall, I can’t fully trust her around distractions like squirrels. She’s so fast that if she catches sight of one, she’s gone in an instant! I've noticed that practicing recall in a safe, fenced area helped build her reliability. I’d say always remain vigilant when deciding.
