Whippet
The Whippet is a graceful sighthound with impressive speed and elegant appearance. Originally bred in England, he was valued as a hunting and racing dog. Compared to the Greyhound, his smaller size makes him more versatile and often hardier. His athletic build, combined with a sensitive nature, makes him a special companion for active dog owners.
In character, the Whippet is considered sensitive, adaptable, and exceptionally friendly. He loves exercise, fast games, and close family connection. Indoors he is calm and balanced, while outdoors he blossoms into a true bundle of energy. This mix of serenity and sporting ambition requires carefully considered resting places that provide both support and comfort.
For recovery after long runs, an orthopaedic dog bed (RedLabel) with supportive mattress, washable at 95 °C, or an ergonomic dog bed (GreenLabel) with soft fleece lying surface, washable at 60 °C, is ideal. Both variants suit his slender build and provide joint-friendly support. As flexible alternatives, orthopaedic dog cushions or ergonomic dog cushions provide warmth, security, and hygiene – ideal also for sensitive skin.
A dog blanket complements the sleeping environment as a protective layer for floor, sofa, or basket. Reversible models with quilted or fleece sides are machine washable at 95 °C and provide cozy warmth. For safe trips to training, holidays, or the vet, a dog car seat cover with thermal padding, all-side protection, non-slip underside, and noise-dampening effect ensures a clean interior and relaxed travel for the Whippet.
Doctor Bark develops its products together with veterinarians, tailored to the anatomical and thermal needs of active breeds like the Whippet. High-quality materials, washable up to 95 °C, ensure hygiene, comfort, and durability – for restorative moments at home and on the go.
