Whippet racing is the same as Greyhound Racing, only with whippets. this is not racing for money, like some people do with greyhounds, but it is mostly for fun. the dogs are put in the trap, which is a metal box with bars at the front. when they are let out, they chase the luar, the dog who is first wins the race. some people do whippet racing for a hobby.

How do you tell if what you see is either a grey hound or a whippet?

If sighted in or around the Port Authority Bus Terminal, it's a Greyhound (Bus). Kidding aside they are similar dogs; the Greyhound is used in commercial dog racing and is tall- coming up to the midthigh. The whippet is smaller- about knee height. Both the greyhound and whippet come in many colours and with many markings, including brindle. Whippets were bred as racing dogs and are still used as such in th UK, as well as being used to catch rabbits etc. They are faster than greyhounds and are the fastest dog in existence.

If you get the whippet when it is older then it probably is not used to cats and will chase it. However by introducing them when the whippet is a VERY young puppy will get it used to cats.
