Say Hi to Betsy
Whippet, 3 years old
My favourite thing about Betsy is...
She likes to sleep under a blanket, even in the height of summer, you’ll always find her under the duvet.
The biggest challenge with Betsy is...
She likes to pinch your seat when you stand up.
The most surprising thing about owning a Whippet is...
All whippets seem to recognise each other as their own breed, it’s like they’re all long lost brothers and sisters and every walk is a reunion.
What I wish I’d known about Whippets is...
They are sensitive little souls. They need an owner who understand they my get anxious at the smallest of things and how to soothe them.
Did you know?
While similar to the Greyhound (the fastest dog on earth), the Whippet, being lighter built, has got better acceleration, and over very short distances will be able to beat them.
