Our Breeding Practices

Behaviour and socialisation

Our puppies are raised in our home, right in the heart of family life. They are handled frequently—not just because we love puppy cuddles, but because early, positive human interaction plays a crucial role in their development (and it’s great for lowering blood pressure too!). From birth, our puppies are exposed to a…

Health

The health of our puppies begins long before they are born. We are committed to ensuring our breeding dogs are in peak condition before planning a litter. A fit and healthy mother has a much smoother pregnancy and whelping process, giving her puppies the best possible start in life. All our whippets receive cardiac…

Home environment

Our puppies are raised in our home, where they receive around-the-clock care and socialisation. For the first three weeks, they stay in a dedicated nursery room, where we sleep alongside them and their mother 24/7 to ensure they receive the best possible care. This allows us to step in if needed and closely monitor…

About the Breeder

A little about us

Hartzfyrre whippets are raised in our home and are 100% part of the family. We believe in breeding fit for purpose whippets who are sound in both body and mind. Our whippets have excelled in the show ring, on the coursing field, in obedience and they really excel at being couch potatoes!

Why we got involved in breeding

What you may not know is that many breeds today have very small populations. If some breeds were any other kind of animal, they would be considered endangered. You may find it hard to believe, but breeds can become extinct. If you read any histories about dog breeds, you will find lots of references to breeds that…

Our special touch

A true love of the breed. I spend many hours researching pedigrees, talking to old time breeders and soaking up their knowledge. It is important to protect our purebred dogs.

To secure a puppy from us, we request a deposit once the litter is born and thriving. This confirms your commitment and allows us to plan for your puppy’s transition to their new home. The remaining balance is due a few days before pick-up via bank transfer or can be paid in cash on the day of collection. We strongly prefer bank transfer to ensure a smooth and hassle-free handover. If you have any questions about the payment process, feel free to reach out—we’re happy to help.
