Speedy the Whippet: What on Earth is he doing?

My Speedy does sone really odd things… does your whippet do these odd things too or is it just this nut?

[@alanburge2725]

Them racing around like absolute maniacs is the highlight for me here.......

[@kiko7247]

It's a joy to watch dearly loved dogs being happy and healthy, playing and relaxing. You are taking good care of them, I wish every pet parent would do the same.

[@wendyjoslin3587]

Thanks so much, that's so nice of you!

[@TheUrratha]

It’s called OWNER. Not parent.

[@petermerelis]

@@TheUrratha and who, exactly, is harmed by that kind of playful anthropomorphism? is it really such a bad thing to attribute the same kind of love one might have for a child onto a loyal and loving dog?

I am amazed they can run so fast in a tight space and not crash into anything .

I am too, they are pretty agile...

[@wilson2455]

yes they can. But one slip or miscalculation and be prepared for a big vet bill.

[@nicky9263]

My whippet broke his spine when he hit a Pole in the backyard. We had to put him to sleep. I start to feel very tense, when I see them running around all these obsticals.

Yes, thanks Speedy. I especially loved the "important" business going on in the pita bed and the lip button! Had me fully entertained throughout, not to mention had me laughing out loud! *Thanks Speedy!*

I am so deeply moved by this video and totally in love with these two beautiful boyz!!! Thank you, Yt, for bringing these jewels to me. I adore greyz, the three ones I've adopted have made my life so much better!!! Only one is still alive, I wish all creatures could live a life of sharing touching moments like those on the video, similar to those I've shared with my beloved greyz. Good vibes to you all. Namaste. 💖

[@wendyjoslin3587]

Glad you enjoyed it! I mostly make these videos because I've had dogs in the past that I badly miss and I only have photos and I think I would love it if I had more videos of them...

[@annettephipps6790]

I Loved that so much ❤ Thank you such a joy to watch 😊 We have an adorable 6yr blue boy who shares many of Speedy’s traits/skills 😂 Fabulous creatures def…our home is a happier & calm place … well mostly 🤣with a whippet 😍 ps love your garden and side run 👍💪

I've had whippets for 35 years and yes, Mr Speedy is a bit of a nut... but very whippet like traits,too. Mine LOVE those pocket beds. I take the tube part out ... then they use it like a sleeping bag. Love the open mouthed sleeping and the lip button... unique! Gotta love them! Good job with them!

[@jona.scholt4362]

Those were some Grade A Zoomies! I'd love to see them at their top straight line speed; I was amazed at their agility and their ability to turn, not lose much speed, and accelerate in a microsecond! Speedy looked smaller than Willow; I wonder if Willow is a greyhound or just a larger whippet? Kind of how their are different size beagles. Anyway, those were two beautiful boys!

[@wendyjoslin3587]

Hey! Thanks! I will try to post something of them out in the open zooming, they are funny dogs, we take them out to zoom in large spaces, but the zoomies can't be planned... they zoom when they zoom, but I'll try, it's pretty amazing to watch!

[@jona.scholt4362]

❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️ So adorable. Really heartwarming to watch. Thanks for being here for us to watch Speedy and Willowkins. My heart needed the smile you gave. I recently lost my beloved lurcher. She was a rescue... I had her 11 years.. though she was 6 when I found her. Miss her terribly. Watching these videos is the first time I've smiled in weeks 🐾🐾xx

[@wendyjoslin3587]

I'm so sorry to hear about your lurcher, those are beautiful and sweet dogs. It's a really hard time in our lives to experience the loss of such loving companions. My heart goes out to you.

[@labachaterairlandesa]

Our oldest whippet used to lick the couch, and when my mom would call his name in a scolding voice, he’d freeze with his tongue on the couch and look at her like he was hoping if he didn’t move, she wouldn’t see him. Then, I swear to you, he used to put his arm in front of his nose and pretend he was grooming himself and not the couch. The couch was like a velour-type material, and there was a stiff spot from him always licking it. He also tried his freeze frame on me once when he stole some steaks my dad had left to thaw on the back of the stove (not sure what my dad was thinking between the food safety issues and two known thieves). Well, one was hidden in the blankets under his dog bed, and I caught him burying another in the yard. Not sure if he thought we were like T-Rexes that could only see motion, or if he wasn’t sure what to do. Whippets are hilarious.

[@Jacmac1]

The fake digging is something that hounds do to create a comfortable rounded bed to sleep in. Our Rhodesian Ridgebacks do this instictively too, even though it doesn't produce any results. With loose blankets on a dog bed, it just means that they end up on the floor.

[@wendyjoslin3587]

Wow!!! Those type of breed dogs are definitely speedy fast! I guess that's why they call them "Whippets." lol!!! I just watched your video and I have some favorite cute and funny parts I liked in it. But my favorite of favorites is when he is singing a "White Christmas." I know it's fake and it is really him singing, but I laughed so hard to the point of crying tears because it was so hilarious. 😂 lol!!! And both your fur babies are so sweet and cute and hilarious. ❤❤❤🐾🐾🐾 Your fur babies are so blessed to have such loving humans like you and your husband. There are others like yours who are not so blessed and not living a good life because they are being trained to race for money. And I can only imagine all those precious innocent dogs are either in pain from abuse to make them race or exhausted from racing so much that they don't have a life. They can't be a dog. You know what I mean? 😟☹ 💔💔 God bless you and your sweet fur babies.

[@wendyjoslin3587]

Thanks you so much for your kind words and your big heart! Yes, people raising dogs for anything that might harm the animal is wrong. I always hope that all those poor dogs eventually find good loving homes and that I can continue providing a solid loving home for dogs forever.

How old is speedy and do you think a 5 or 6 year old might be happy inside with daily leash walks. Our greyhound was but the one we tried to adopt after was not. Am thinking a whip might be a better fit given our age and lifting but do not have a fenced yard and dog parks are diseased.
