Preventing Problems and Providing Support
Bringing home a whippet puppy is exciting, they are full of energy and oh so cute—but having a puppy can feel overwhelming.
Your new pup might be biting, crying when left alone, harassing other dogs in the home, or not resting enough!
You may feel exhausted, frustrated, and unsure where to start with training. The puppy blues are be real and google tends to trawl up advice that isn't intended for sensitive sighthounds.
The Puppy Package is designed specifically for sighthound owners like you. With tailored guidance, breed-specific advice, and ongoing support, you’ll gain the confidence to raise a happy, relaxed, and well-behaved whippet with support on hand when you need it.
DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU?
The Puppy Stage Is Hard
Biting Is Out Of Control
Adult whippets are chilled...but puppies nip hard and fast and it can feel relentless. You're covered in scratches, you've tried everything, and nothing seems to be making a dent.
Nobody Is
Sleeping
The crying, the settling in, the not knowing if you're doing the right thing. The exhaustion of a new puppy is real especially when you're second-guessing every decision.
Conflicting Advice Everywhere
Google gives you fifty different answers, none of them written with a sighthound in mind. Friends and family have opinions. You don't know what to follow or what's going to make things worse.
Worried You Are Getting It Wrong
Puppyhood feels high-stakes. You know the early months matter and you want to do right by your dog but without clear, breed-specific guidance it's hard to know if you're on track.
Imagine Future Life With Your Puppy
A Puppy Who can sleep and settle in the home without constantly being on the go. Enjoyable relaxation time with your dog
Biting that reduces and eventually stops, because you understand why it's happening and what actually helps
Early recall foundations that give you something solid to build on as they grow and get faster
Basic life skills, focus and manners. The building blocks for a dog who is a pleasure to live with
Confidence that you know what you're doing. A clear plan rather than worrying about what you are seeing online
A relationship with your puppy built on trust and positive experiences from the very start lasting into adulthood beyond adolesence

Arkle learning drop as a puppy!
Zara is excellent and was so helpful with our Whippet puppy - highly recommend her to anyone looking for puppy or ongoing training. So much great Whippet specific advice that helped us raise a really confident dog.
I’ve been following Zara on Facebook for a while, watching her youtube videos. She is a great help, a knowledgeable trainer using kind techniques. I recently started zoom training with her as I’m in another country and am very happy with her help. Highly recommend!
I can't recommend Zara and Whippet Wonders more highly. We were complete novices to whippets when we brought home our adorable puppy. Zara has been there at every step of the first few months. Her expert knowledge of the breed means she always has great advice on issues and challenges based on real, lived experience. The online resources she provides are brilliant too. More than anything Zara is kind, highly responsive and makes you feel that you are not alone! Thank you, Zara!

What Breeds do you work with?
I work with Whippets, Italian Greyhounds, Greyhounds, Lurchers, Sighthounds and similar breeds as long as they have a pointy nose and resemble a sighthound.
What If I have problems between sessions?
You get support via whatsapp and email between sessions! I want to help you have an easier time with your puppy so I get back to you regarding any issues you may be having.
Does Online Training Really Work?
Yes! Whippet Wonders has been helping clients online for over 5 years!
The zooms are live with you via video call and we can talk through your questions, and you get follow up videos and notes after each session too to boost learning!
I'm not in the Uk, can I sign up?
Absolutely! The Puppy Package is very popular internationally as Whippets tend not be as common and trainers are less experienced with them as a breed. We work live zoom video call, so we can call from anywhere! I have worked with pups in the USA, Poland, Australia, France, Spain, Italy and more!
How Long Do I have to use the sessions?
The sessions are usable for 3 months from you first session. Meaning you can schedule your 2nd and 3rd sessions anytime to suit you during this time.

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.
