Whippet

• Dog breed group: Hound Dogs
• Weight: 18 to 48 pounds
• Life span: 12 to 15 years

A few decades ago, the Whippet dog breed was perfect for hunters, because they were very good at chasing rabbits and other small creatures. However, with a friendly and loving personality, and stylish look, they can make great family companions. We have good news for those people who live in an apartment: this type of dog breed can live there with you as well, but you have to provide them enough daily exercise.
