Can whippets be trained to stay off the furniture?
If you’re really fussy about your furniture, you might want to consider choosing a different breed. Whippets in good condition have very little natural padding. Hard surfaces are uncomfortable for them, and whippets do love their comfort! Though some people manage to teach their whippets to stay off the furniture, most just give up and allow it. Fortunately most whippets have no doggy odor; however, they do shed, and you might want to get a couch that matches your whippet (or vice versa!).
