Meet the breeder

I'm Janet C., the breeder behind Secoya Whippets located in Painesville, OH. Welcome to Secoya Whippets. Whippets are a beautiful breed whether you are looking for a show dog or just a companion. I breed for good health, temperament and to improve the breed. Health testing is done on all dogs according to AWC recommendations.

Q. & A. with Janet

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I was involved with breeding horses in the past and decided after a few years with my Whippets that I wanted to share this lovely breed with others and improve my line at the same time. What a thrill when you hold newborn puppies in your hand and watch them grow into happy, healthy, well adjusted dogs. I consider it an honor to share that love with my puppy buyers.
  • What makes your program special?

    I put a lot of time and effort into picking the right dam and sire combination to insure the temperament, health, and conformation are the best that it can be. I work with the puppies every day following the Puppy Culture CD's and manual to give them the best start possible as the early weeks are so critical to instill confidence in a puppy. I screen my buyers to ensure my puppies are getting the best homes possible. I stay in touch with my buyers and am always there to help them well after the puppies have gone to their forever home. I always furnish them with an information packet on what to expect and what they will need for their puppy along with a gift bag of goodies including the puppies first martingale collar.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Our whole family adores our new pup and we were provided wonderful information for easing a new puppy into our home. Janet also shared a great deal about the breed, which was a comfort since we’ve never had a whippet. The responses are always swift when I have questions. Grateful to have found such a reputable breeder and incredible canine companion.
