Yes that exactly. His recall is AMAZING, but only when he feels like it. Often he’ll run in the opposite direction, pee on a tree and then come running to me at 50kph. Whippets were bred to be independent hunters so they make their own decisions.
Also be warned about 1/3rd of the whippets we know have a big squirrel body count and can’t really be let off leash. Bowie is not a killer and we’re grateful for it.
