Grooming and Care

A whippet’s coat is one of its great joys — short, smooth, and virtually maintenance-free. Because their coat is so fine, they don’t have that typical “doggy smell” and are remarkably cat-like in their cleanliness. A quick brush now and then, and perhaps a soft wipe after a muddy walk, is all they need to stay looking their sleek best. Their cleanliness and minimal shedding make them ideal indoor companions — particularly for those who appreciate a tidy home.
