“Dots”

A go-getter from the start, Dots is full of energy. She doesn't have the best physical control, and is something of a bull in a china shop - making one cringe at her exuberance as she knocks her head into table legs, spills drinks off of table tops, and leaves a trail of mayhem in her wake. But that's what makes Dots... well, Dots! And we love her for it.

She is truly the spitting image of her mom, Penelope, which is fascinating - given all the color patterns and possibilities in whippets - to have a daughter with the same shaped-patches and markings, located in the same places as her mom has been a kick.

Dots got her dad, Timmy's silly, sunny personality. She loves to clown around and make people laugh.

Dots also got both of her parents' love of running and their smarts. She's not exceptionally fast, but her form is good and she is focused on the lure and enjoys the activity immensely. She learns new skills easily, and enjoys being the 'demo dog' when Jen teaches classes.

Dots may be a bit of a wild child, but her energy and joy are contagious.
