This is Ace
He just turned a year old
He is a sweet boy, he is calm and loving. Loves to cuddle. Loves to go for walks. Walks well on a leash.
Does well with car rides.
Raised on a farm but has not been exposed to other dogs. Does play well with our female whippet same age but can play rough. He is a teenager and has that teenage rebellion. He also does have the prey drive and likes catching rabbits.
He is much calmer than our female.
We own the female and my daughter owns Ace. She is having to rehome him because she does not have the time for him. She got him as a gift but shortly after she got promoted to a manager position and has been having a hard time finding home life, work and social balance. So she's having to rehome him because she does not have the time to dedicate to Ace.
Aces AKC registered, he will come with full rights and no contracts or requirements.
It has not been exposed to little kids so I cannot recommend he be around little kids. He's only been around young adults in their twenties and a teenager. Ace is a teenager himself. So zero exposure to kids. However He is a good boy, very calm loves to cuddle. He can be destructive with toys but from what I've read that's normal to the breed itself. Especially when they get bored. Just get tough toys. It is not recommended that Ace have a dog bone ever because he gets territorial. He is selfish and wants the bone to himself and we'll fight for it. So we took the bone away and he's never had a bone sense. We have not had any issues with guarding or territorial behavior since we took the bone away and that has been months ago, give or take. Though he is a good boy and loves to cuddle he can be headstrong. He has five acres he can roam free so when it's time to come inside if Ace doesn't want to come inside he won't. You can't run to catch him 😂
He will slow down just enough for you to think you can get them before he takes off again 🤣🤣
However we leave him outside few more minutes he gets bored and wants to come back in. He will come back in and go straight to his kennel without being prompted. That behavior is also true to the breed. lol
The reason why we are having our daughter get rehome him is because she does not have the time to dedicate to him and she is still working on potty training because of it. We can't leave him outside because he likes to chew on stuff. He hasn't fully gotten all of his adult teeth yet. However with consistency and dedication. I do think that would turn around quickly. She got him, got promoted and has been struggling to find a good balance between home,work, and her social life. She was in college too but could not find the balance between all of that plus having animals. Now I think she's just trying to minimize the stress. She lives in a tiny home next door to us so we help out often. However we have our own schedules.
He deserves to go to a loving home who has time to dedicate to him. He is a very sweet boy who just wants some love and cuddles. He does well taking showers, cuddles, car rides and his favorite is taking walks. If you have any questions don't hesitate to reach out.

Frequently Asked Questions
About
Whippet
Puppies
What makes Whippets special?
Whippets are fast, athletic sighthounds who love the chase. They are very social and love both humans and other dogs. Whippets are calm and gentle when they’re not running and can usually be found snoozing on something soft and comfy. Full-grown, they typically weigh 25-40 pounds and stand 18-22 inches tall.
Are Whippets a good choice for families with kids?
Whippets are generally excellent with children of all ages. Whippets need to live indoors with access to soft places to rest their bony bodies. Whippets fit best in families with older, more respectful children or no children at all. They're relatively quiet and don't bark much.
How do I keep a Whippet physically active?
Whippets need daily walks, during which you’ll need to keep a tight hold of their leash, should a squirrel demand the attention of your dog. Aside from walks, you’ll want to bring your Whippet to a dog park once or twice a week so they can run at full-speed without worrying about any dangers. If you’re looking to get involved in doggie sports, Whippets are ace competitors in lure coursing, a sport where dogs chase a mechanical lure. Overall, their exercise needs are high.
How much grooming does a Whippet need?
Whippets have a very short coat that is easy to groom. They are also very cleanly and rarely require a bath. Brush their coat every once in awhile to remove dead hair and their coat will always look great. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.
How much space does a Whippet need?
Whippets are best suited for apartments and smaller homes. Whippets need to live indoors with access to soft places to rest their bony bodies. They are moderately trainable with consistent effort.
Puppy Buyer's FAQ
See Full Guide Here
Visit or Video Call the Breeder
Visit in person if possible, or request a live video call to meet the puppy, see its living conditions, and meet the mom. Ask to see where the dogs eat, sleep, and play.
Get a Vet Exam Immediately
Have a vet examine the puppy within two days of bringing it home, even if it seems healthy.
Request Complete Health Records
Ask for vaccination records, deworming history, and vet exam results. For purebreds, ask for parent health clearances.
Get Everything in Writing
Written contract with health guarantees, return/refund policy, and spay/neuter terms. Verbal promises are unenforceable.
Use Secure Payment Methods
Pay with a credit card or another traceable method that offers buyer protection. Avoid wire transfers, crypto, or gift cards, which are difficult to recover.
Verify Breeder Credentials
Check USDA license, state breeder license, breed club memberships, and reviews. Ask for buyer references.
Know What to Look For
A trustworthy breeder welcomes visits, specializes in one or two breeds, prices fairly, and gives you time to decide without pressure.
Know Your State's Laws
Some states have lemon laws; others rely on contract law. Know your rights before you buy.
