Yep. Whippets are the middle ones. Greyhounds are the tallest of the three. Italian Greyhounds (Iggy/Iggies) are the smallest.

When I had my first greyhound, I ran into someone with an iggy the same color as her. We became fast friends as we walked all over town looking for a matching whippet to complete the set. Sadly, never found one.

And yes, we cleaned the lines prior to resuming the use of our tap water.

So you've met my dog. Earlier this year, we had to use bottled water for everything for about 4 days. She went on a tap water boycott after that, that was only broken by using water from the bathroom faucet. Apparently that is the only acceptable water now.

We had one that was tall enough, and determined enough, that she was a "I'll just put this on top of the fridge where she can't reach it" surfer when she first arrived.

I was curious about the grey as well. I used to have a couch that my greys, their withers would be above the armrest, yet my whippet, hers barely came to the top of the seat cushion. Unfortunately, I got my whip after my greys passed away.
I do love the pic as a way to explain the 3 breeds.

Either that's a really large whippet next to a smaller greyhound, or I just have a smaller whippet 😆 She feels so much smaller than my greys. Can even curl up in my lap!

Took me forever to find it, but here's our catlike whippet curled up being my husband 😁 They could be twins!

Your home, your tree, go for it!
I personally do my decorations in stages. I start with lights, then add more decor and garland. Smaller trees that I decorate for fall/harvest/TG. Until finally, on the day after Thanksgiving, I change the decorations on the smaller trees & the main tree goes up!

There was a similar restaurant where I grew up. Been there for as long as I can remember, so over 45 years. Never saw more than 3 cars, always luxury models, in the parking lot. We went in once to eat. Best pizza I've ever had.

My favorite description of whippets is: Cat software installed in Dog hardware.

Aww what a cutie! 😍
When we got ours, my husband would tell people she's my puppy/my dog.
Ok, Mr "She's your dog", explain why you two have a whole routine when you get home from work that involved belly rubs and held hugs, before I even get a kiss hello? 😆

Many years ago, when my son was young, I discovered that a 5 yr old child and a 75 pound greyhound can, in fact, hog an entire Cali king!
