MEET THE Trainer
Hey, I'm Zara!
Hi I’m Zara Lipsett, and I am The Whippet Expert.
I have had Whippets for the last 14 years, living with four whippets (and a jrt). After growing up with a collie and a gsd, Whippets were definitley an experience I was not expecting!
Where the dogs I grew up with would never dream of stealing food, I suddenly had a dog willing to scale counters to grab a crumb off it! I had a dog who questioned me when I attempted to train him. Asking the questions; "What is in it for me?"
Over the years with Marley, then Ollie, Arthur & Arkle I learned all about how to train & motivate Whippets effectively to help them be the best companions possible.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers To Frequently Asked Questions
I live in another country, can you work with me?
Whippet Wonders has worked with clients around the world. Everywhere from USA, Australia, Denmark, Italy, Spain, France and more! Zooms can take place from anywhere in the world and you can buy courses from anywhere too.
Don't you need to see my dogs "bad behaviour" In person?
During a zoom I don't need to see your dog doing the wrong behaviour, our goal is to set your dog up for success. This would be the same as if I were in person. If you have any relevant video clips, that is handy, but our focus is on solutions and moving forward!
Do you work with other Breeds?
I work with Whippets, Whippet mixes, Italian Greyhounds, Lurchers, Bedlington Whippets - anything that is a bit "sighthound-y". I can be persuaded to work with other breeds in some circumstances.
Do you charge extra for multi dog households?
There is NO extra charge for households with multiple dogs. We can cover the most pressing issues for your multidog household in each session.
What if my dog is not food motivated?
If your dog is not a super foodie, don't worry! Motivation is a tricky topic, but very often it is about how we use food and we will cover strategies during your 121 zoom session.
Would a course or 121 suit me best?
Self paced courses or the School For Whippets are ideal if you are motivated and able to work on your own. Perfect if you are pressed for time. While 121's can be ideal if you need a plan, structure or help with a specific problem. Get in touch if you are unsure.
