They have a lean muscular build engineered for speed, reflective of their historical use in racing and coursing games. Whippets are gentle yet lively, coupling a calm demeanor with a playful streak when adequately exercised. Their high intelligence and keenness to learn make them easy to train. Whippets are best suited to a balanced lifestyle, needing moderate daily exercise, along with ample time to rest and relax.
