Rescue Whippets

The Whippets listed here are currently available through WRAP. If none are shown that doesn’t mean we don’t have any Whippets in foster care right now, just that they aren’t ready, so please fill out an Adoption Application. Adoption Applications are kept on file for six months.

An Adoption Application is required to be submitted before contacting a WRAP foster volunteer about a specific rescue currently available for adoption. Decisions about adoptions are made by foster volunteers.

Neutered. Uno is just looking for a comfortable couch, fenced yard, loving home with someone home most of the time, and another dog. If you open your heart and home to a senior like Uno you won’t be sorry. Uno is a wonderful older gentleman!

Location Category: Tennessee

I’d like to introduce you to Rex. He may be 10 years old, but he still loves to play with the frisbee and tennis ball like he’s a young pup! His other favorite hobbies include cuddling on the couch, going for walks (he’s great on a lead), and of course, nap time. Rex is a very curious dog and will likely be your shadow until he gets fully settled in. The lady of the house will steal the heart of this big fella. He recently had a thorough vet exam and has a clean bill of health.

An ideal home for Rex would be a calm household (without young children) with a fenced yard (for chasing the frisbee and tennis ball). He came from a home with 10 other brothers and sisters. So, he is comfortable with other adult whippets. Compatibility with cats is unknown.

If you’re within a reasonable driving distance to Crossville, TN and you think you could be a great match for Rex, please complete an application at https://whippet-rescue.org/adoption-application/. Feel free to also reach out to her foster parents Jaime and Jerome Silvers at JeromeS13@gmail.com for additional info or if you have any questions.

Rex came into rescue with siblings around his age who are looking for forever homes. If you’re located in TN or a nearby state (AL, KY, NC, SC, GA) and looking to add a senior whippet to your family, please complete an application!

Available for Adoption: Jack, 10 months, Male, Chicagoland area

Name of Whippet, Location: Available for Adoption: Jack, 10 months, Male, Chicagoland area
Location Category: Illinois
Name of foster volunteer: Robyn

Address: Chicago area

Jack is a 10-month-old whippet with the sweetest soul and the most unforgettable look—a black spot over his eye that makes him look like a tiny pirate. But instead of treasure, this boy is on a quest to steal hearts (and he’s really good at it!).

Jack is still figuring out the world. He’s working on potty training, and yes, he thinks countertops are snack buffets. But what he lacks in manners, he makes up for with pure love. He’s not a fan of the crate—what he wants most is to be with you. He’ll follow you from room to room, happy just to be your shadow.

Though a little timid at first, Jack warms up quickly—especially if you come bearing treats. Once he feels safe, you’ll discover a gentle, affectionate pup who just wants to snuggle and be part of everything you do.

If you’ve got patience, a sense of humor, and room in your heart for a loyal sidekick, Jack is ready to love you forever.

PLEASE NOTE – WRAP does not ship, must be within a few hours from the Chicagoland area as he was very shelter and very nervous and is a flight risk. Touching states would be considered if it was the best home for Jack and the adopter. Jack will not be adopted to a home where there is no other dog, (it is preferred a sighthound) or at least a dog of his size and temperament. Also mandatory is a secured privacy fence as he was never introduced to life in general nor socialized at a younger age and only grew up with his siblings. If you are able to meet Jack’s needs and location, you can submit your application.
