I'm Susan S., the breeder behind QuiXand Performance Whippets located in Olympia Area, WA. QuiXand Whippets excel at lure coursing, fastCAT, flyball, dock diving, amateur racing and of course, being excellent family pets!
We breed with an eye toward correct and functional conformation as well as soundness of mind and body.
Quality pets and performance prospects occasionally available.
Q. & A. with Susan
Why did you start breeding?
I have always bred something... at eight I tried to start a breeding colony of grasshoppers. :)
I got my first whippet -- Regalstock Thais -- in 1998 and with the help of excellent mentors and friends developed a very successful breeding program. I have many "return customers" who have come back for second, third -- in one case sixth! -- pups from me.
What makes your program special?
Over the past 25 years QuiXand dogs and their progeny have excelled flyball, disc, fastCAT, lure coursing and dock diving, won national and international racing competitions, and graced couches and beds all over the world.
I pride myself on healthy, sound, lovable whippets that are pets as their job and athletes as their hobby!
I am also readily available and supportive of my puppy owners.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

About Bronski
Bronski is the best boy. He had an injury to his leg early on, but he powered through months of rehab after surgery and has remained the happiest, funniest, most loving boy ever. He has started off his dock diving career with a bang, jumping 23 feet just eight weeks after his first ever jump into any pool.
