Buh-bye.
A whippet has a TOP speed of 40-45 miles per hour. one of mine was CLOCKED by a police radar gun at 45.
they ARE the 3rd fastest land mammal. cheetah, greyhound, whippet. then everything else.
spring bucks don't run like a cheetah or a dog. they SPRING and HOP. that is not counted as SPEED!
