Description
Our much loved whiggy girl Pika is due a litter of 7/8 Italian Greyhound (IG), 1/8 whippet puppies around 19th April 2026.
Pika is our beautiful 4 year old blue and white whiggy. She is 3/4 IG and 1/4 whippet. We bred Pika ourselves and also own her mum and auntie.
Our small pack of whiggies are fully vaccinated, routinely wormed and health checked. Pika has no health issues and has been DNA tested, screening clear for a wide range of genetic conditions. Pika has had no history of health or temperament concerns. All breeding decisions are made with health, temperament and long term wellbeing in mind. I am very happy to share her full health and DNA records with serious enquiries.
Pika has a lovely temperament. She is affectionate, confident and very people-orientated. We have been able to take her to work with us since she was a puppy, so she is very well socialised with both people and other dogs. She has grown up around our two children, now 11 and 12, so she is excellent with children. While we don’t own cats, she has met them and behaved very well.
The sire is a KC registered solid fawn Italian Greyhound. He is an excellent example of the breed with a friendly and outgoing temperament. This is a repeat mating from Pika’s previous litter, and photos of full siblings and the sire can be shared. A copy of his KC pedigree will be provided to new owners, along with pedigree information for Pika’s IG sire.
The puppies will be born and raised in our living room, so they will be well accustomed to the sights and sounds of a busy family home. As this is a spring litter, they will benefit from early environmental exposure outdoors and will be ready to go to their new homes in the summer months, which can make early training, including toilet training, more straightforward. They will be socialised with our children and our other dogs, well handled from birth, and raised with careful attention to their early development during key stages of puppy development.
We breed whiggies with the aim of producing a healthy, balanced dog that retains the elegance of the IG, with a little more bone and robustness from the whippet. As this litter is 7/8 IG, the puppies are likely to be slightly smaller than Pika. Pika’s pre pregnancy weight is around 9kg, and we expect the puppies to mature at approximately 6 to 8kg.
We have bred several whiggy litters since our first litter in 2015 and like to keep in touch with all of our owners. I have also completed courses in whelping, breeding and early puppy socialisation, and offer lifetime support and advice. Many of our previous owners have returned to us for a second or third puppy.
We run a private Facebook group for owners of BazZita Whiggies and other like minded mini sighthound enthusiasts, where I share regular updates, photos and videos of the puppies as they grow. There is a photo of the group page included in this advert and you are very welcome to join:

We also have a WhatsApp group for existing Pika puppy owners, and new owners will be very welcome to join to keep up to date with their puppies siblings and to share advice and support.
All puppies will be:
• Vet health checked
• Vaccinated
• Microchipped
• Wormed regularly with Drontal
• Weaned onto Royal Canin Mini Starter, followed by Royal Canin Mini Puppy
• Sent home with a supply of food
• Insured with PetPlan
• Given a scented blanket and toys to help with the transition
We are now welcoming enquiries from carefully selected homes. I am always happy to speak on the phone or arrange video calls to introduce you to Pika and our other dogs.
