Q. & A. with Elizabeth
Why did you start breeding?
I am purposeful in everything I do regarding my dogs, including careful selection of breeding dogs and extensive health testing. My goal is to produce healthy dogs with a confident and happy temperament. My secondary goals are teachability, intelligence, and speedWhat makes your program special?
All my dogs are fully health tested and are excellent representatives of what a whippet is supposed to be in both temperament and structure. I'm dedicated to being a responsible breeder and I always put the needs of my dogs first. I provide unique socialization opportunities for my pups. The experiences they have will make them ready to handle new situations with confidence.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Parent dogs
Ever, mom
Whippet
About Ever
Ever is high energy, intelligent, and very curious whippet! She is my shadow and likes to go everywhere I do but has an occasional independent streak too. She is motivated by praise and play, has a ton of drive, and learns very quickly. She's also a snuggle bug when it's time to rest and wants to be right by my side.
