What is a good size fenced area for a whippet to be able to run around and enjoy himself? Would 30ft by 20ft be good or does he need more to be satisfied and stretch out his legs? Is 6 ft high enough to prevent jumping over? We will be supplementing with walks on lead.

Hi I’m very worried about a lovely whippet puppy pheobe I am looking after for a close friend.

Molly wandered up as an abused stray/abandoned pupper. She's around 40lbs and has the typical beagle pattern as well as black and tan freckles on all her white fur.

Our Whippet has this large bump on his nose. (Refer to pics) We believe it is due to him attempting to jump the fence a few days ago (due to thunder) but we are not sure. Some help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Peter

I don't know dog breeds all that well yet, except for very common breeds. So I spent some time online trying to figure these out. For the beauty on the left I came up with Old Time Farm Shepherd (or English Shepherd). For the dainty on the right, I'm pretty sure Whippet (or Greyhound). Either...
