I said you dont have to just because its a whippet, but she thinks she will otherwise the dog wont be happy.

replies will be greatly appreciated as she only has 3 days to decide!
Never owned one personally, but have had quite a few through classes, they are bright intelligent, sometimes a bit sensitive little dogs, none of the owners I have ever known have "worked" them in a traditional sense, but they do enjoy doing some obedience or agility work.

they seem to make nice pet dogs, but you need to sort the recall, cos you will never catch them.
