Remolacha Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Sigh. At least he said Whippets, not Great Danes or Chihuahuas or something else. I said, no, greyhounds, but he wasn’t listening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EllenEveBaz Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Why do so many people say whippets? They're just as uncommon as greys, aren't they?

ramonaghan Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 We get that all the time too! Plus Saluki once, speaking of uncommon... But lately most annoying is my neighbor asking about Sweep, "what is she, about 13?" He has asked this twice now. No, no, she is KNOT. She is 9, she just walks like because it's 90 degrees (plusalso have you see her toes?!). I'll be delighted if she makes it to her teens but dang it she's not there yet! Quote Rachel with littermates Doolin and Willa, boss cat Tootie, and feline squatters Crumpet and Fezziwig. Missing gentlemen kitties Mud, Henry, and Richard and our beautiful, feisty, silly Sweep.

Remolacha Posted May 26, 2019 Author Share Posted May 26, 2019 I’ve heard Doberman as well, especially for black pups. I always thought Whippets were fairly rare in the US, but I have seen several in my neighborhood over the years, so what do I know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneGTS Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Over here Galgo's are in the majority so many people asked if my dogs were from Spain. With Tapas (mixed breed) many people say she looks like a hyena And the other week someone asked of Sasha was Tapas' puppy (Tapas is 3 years old, Sasha 5. The only thing they have in common is that they are both brown, besides that I don't see any similarities ) Quote Anne, Sasha & Tapas.
