Summary
About Whippet
Medium sighthound combining racing speed with calm companionship. Sleek, lean and Greyhound‑like, with a short, easy‑care coat but little weather protection. Sensitive, gentle and people‑oriented, it needs kind training, safe chances to sprint, soft warm bedding and a stable, quiet home.
About Bohemian Shepherd
Medium-sized Czech herding and guard dog with a black coat and tan markings. Athletic, intelligent, and people-oriented, it bonds closely with family, needs daily exercise and mental work, and responds best to gentle, consistent training. Generally healthy with a long lifespan.
