[Ala Oh]

Very helpful guide to whippets as someone who is weeks away from picking up their first whippet puppy.

[Shelley]

Wonderfully in-depth study on the whippet breed, and was invaluable to me while I was first beginning to love and study sighthounds, particularly this breed. The author clearly both knows a lot about and greatly loves whippets, and it shows. Recommended for anyone interested in the subject.
