  • Follow us as we get our very first puppy. He is a Blue whippet pedigree who is KC registered and absolutely beautiful.
    A lot of planning and some renovation had to be done around the house as you will see.
    feel free to comment below and advice you can give us new owners, and why not say a few things about your own dog.
    And of course, I would really appreciate a like and subscribe. Or if you really didn't like my video, down vote it and comment below what you didn't like about it.

    About fences: I used to have a whippet, and it would jump any fence, up to seven feet high (2 m).

    • @skatepark02
      @skatepark02  4 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Gabriel Lampert I believe that. I saw a video of a whippet jumping a 6 foot fence like it was nothing! I guess if they want to go somewhere there’s no stopping them.

    Can’t say how many Whippets I’ve had in my homes. My wife loved sighthounds and for all the time we were together she showed Whippets, Borzoi and my Briard and Bullmastiff. This is a wonderful in house breed though they can be vindictive if they feel the least bit neglected. One my wife had for years used to poop in her shoes when she was out of sorts. They sleep a lot as they get older, fastidious I’m staying clean and very loving to children. May you have many years together.

    Our whippet was meant to be ''mine'' but he took to my son from day one! [son was aged 10] ...we had a dog already, and so I ''sold'' the whippet to my son for a week's pocket money....of course it was me responsible for walking and routine vet's bills [not big thankfully]...but they do choose people...they seem to be ''one person dogs'', or maybe it was just ours who formed a strong bond with son.

    I grew up with whippets our brindle whippet Bryn lived till he was 18 & our blue whippet Tanya was 16. My grandmother bred whippets for show (some are used for racing but this is a dying tradition now)
    I now have Flo she's 7.
    I would definitely recommend not feeding your dog so late, around 5 or 6 pm is ideal. It's also not good for their kidneys or overall health to just give them dry food. A mixture of wet & dry mixed together is ideal.
    I would never let my dog have anything I can't take off of her. You are the master & letting them win they battle is not good.
    My Whippet loves playing games, I put her in the hall & close the door then hide her ball in the room, she LOVES this game & try to play it often for her several times each time. I have never used a crate for my dogs unless they are destructive when left alone a dog would be much happier with the freedom to move around & ALWAYS have fresh water available. I hope this helps .

    • @skatepark02
      @skatepark02  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for the great advice, and thanks for watching!
      Jasper is almost 2 now and we've changed the way we do things a bit.
      We gave up on the crate after a few days and instead we built a pen in the living room with an open crate, food, water, toys and fake grass. This was ok for about a week until he jumped over the fence (I have this on video) and we decided it was too dangerous. Instead I then penned off all my expensive stuff such as the drum kit and computer etc. This worked great ever since.
      Sadly I got weak and let him sleep upstairs, He now sleeps under the covers at night with us!
      As for feeing I always aim for 6pm. He'll have dry food all day but a 6 he gets cooked chicken or fish. We've considered putting him on the raw diet but we don't have the freezer space.
      Also water, He would never drink water that came from a tap, he loves puddles though. I figured it might be because we're in a hard water area. I've recently been drinking filter water and it seems he prefers it too, so thats all that goes into his bowl now.
      I like the hiding the ball idea, Jasper seems to like it when the ball rolls under the TV cabinet. I'll give it a try.
      Thanks for the great advice, its always good get an insight from the experienced whippet owners as I have learnt that they are almost nothing like other dogs. They are very unique indeed.

      @@skatepark02 Thanks for your reply, looks like Jasper is getting on great!
      Did you know in the Victorian times they were known as bed warmers as whippets love being under the covers & they used them to warm the bed up! My Flo sleeps with me in my bed I don't know how she breathes sometimes! I push back the quilt from her head whilst she's asleep to give her some air but she soon disappears again!
      Pigs ears makes alot of dogs react in this way Flo was the same so now she doesn't get given them.

    He is so great. Good planning. nice to see you take your time. I already planning getting a whippet for about 1,5 year. Now i got a big appartment and a new job with a lot of time for a dog. I search for a blue whippet, actually I am from germany and here I can't find one. There are only brown and checked ones but no one gets grey puppis. would you tell me from where you did get yours? I would love to know. Maybe I have to surch in an other country. Enjoy your time.

      Beatrice Jasiewicz Thank you, a lot of planning went in to this. I love Germany btw, it’s my favourite country.
      Blue Whippets are generally very rare. My girlfriend had an exact idea of what dog she wanted so we just kept searching and waiting. We also wanted him to be a pedigree and KC registered so that made the search even harder. In the end we bought Jasper from a family Cornwall. We got extremely lucky as not only was he exactly what we were looking for but the breeder was also amazing at raising the puppies for those vital 8 weeks.
      I think you’re just going to have to take your time and keep looking. It’s worth the wait.
      Best of luck!

    floors are cold and drafty... try it. do you think your pet gets warm there? that is why they try to cover themselves! just recently my cat created her own sleeping nest under the table in the dining room! completely without my knowing! she brought down the table pad very carefully over the side draping it to the floor and pulled the table cloth over to her sleeping chair, to shield from drafts. this way see gets heat from the register and is protected along the cold exterior wall by the pad! smart girl! not one single poke or pinhole in anything! i had originally placed a spare blanket on the chair in case she should ever want to sleep there - and so she does - appropriately for the oncoming winter! my 2 cats generally sleep on the loveseat, easy chair or sofa. but she likes under the table for daytime and can keep an eye on things from below without being observered! she is a tuxedo! ; )

      @@skatepark02 Yeah, I know. Our countries are polar opposites: We are neurotic, you are 'liberal' as in free to harm yourselves. We had a leakage: for two months our kitchen was wrapped in plastic with an industrial fan drying the structures 24/7, before the insurance company and the technicians with their moisture detectors cleared it.

      Its funny how you mention they have a turbo boost. I make a lot of car videos from time to time and I was trying to convince the guys to film a drag race between a whippet and something like a Lamborghini hurracan. It would have been epic! Though I think jasper would have just ran in the wrong direction.

      Maybe because a puppy under 4 weeks of age will not be properly socialized. A respectful breeder will give away puppies at 3 months!

    He is beautiful. I was wanting a Springer spaniel, but I saw a whippet on TV and I fell in love with the breed. Haha, that coat is so nice and grey. I probably won't get a dog anytime soon. Im just wondering whether they get along with cats.

    • @gillianosborne5643

      They certainly do if they are introduced correctly. My first whippet was a blue called Tiggy in 1990 and we had two cats at the time and she grew up with them and it was lovely to see all three curled up together in front of the fire. Since then I've had another three ~ Tina, Diva and Isla ~ and cannot recommend the breed enough. They're loving, calm, stunningly beautiful, completely loopy at times, THE perfect hot water bottle in bed and perfectly happy to do a full day's hiking in the countryside or, if the weather is bad, equally happy to spend all day snoozing in their bed or, best of all, snuggled up next to you on the sofa! They're incredibly intelligent and trainable too so don't let anybody tell you they'll disappear off hunting for hours on end or go deaf when you call them back - if you train them properly from Day One with lots of lovely treats (smoky ham/cooked sausage/cooked chicken were always Tina's favourites) and lots of praise, cuddles and kisses. Fabulous dogs with very few health issues and for family history buffs like me....there's a very good website called The Whippet Archives which has virtually every registered and racing whippet ever born on it and gives their pedigree, photos, progeny etc....I traced Tina's family tree all the way back to the very first breed champion in the 1880's! It's very addictive! I like all dogs and springers are lovely BUT they're endless energy and bumbling about would drive me demented LOL It's whippets every time for our house!
