Italian greyhound or Whippet?

[vinny1 0]

Hi all, i have just got a little dog but not quite sure on her breed. Sounds strange i know.

 

Was told she is a whippet but i think she's too small. She's 13 tts and 12 months old. What sort of size would a whippet be at that age?

 

Pic below.

 

Thanks

She apparently chases but not caught anything yet, we'll just play it by ear.

Might be the picture, but that pup doesn't look 12 months old. Didn't think you get brindle I G's either. Might be wrong, nice pup though

Was just gonna say that dogs no more than 15 weeks in that picture ... Any chance the dogs a lucrher and he's just saying its a year old ? Looks like a 4 or 5 month old whippet in that pik to me and looks 13" in the pik my mates terriers are 13tts. Its deff not an italian though could be a whip x italian seen alot of them advertised lately.

Definately not pure IG as thier legs are as thin as a pencil and shatter easily. (my friend has 4 and they are very frail looking, also rightly said they don't coma in brindle). From the pics it does look like a whippet pup, smallest KC whipp i've met was a 14tts female so could be a pure whippet. Nice pup though and should be quick enough for ferriting & bunnies

Deffo whippet in that dog .That my friend is a fine lookng pup,strong legs and back.No way is it an italian greyhound .The only bother i have had with whippets is that ,they have so much ,courage,they can tear,injure themselves and still carry on.Next day is a different story.Great pup.BUT if that picture,is 13" high and 1 yr old then i`m stumped,going off the feet..
