Sighthounds aren't like other dogs. Their bones break easier. They get cold indoors. They sprint at 35 miles an hour. Their veterinarians sometimes miss what's wrong with them. This newsletter is the field manual nobody handed you when you brought one home.
A 14-page PDF guide on the things that matter most in your dog's first year — written for owners of IGs, whippets, and greys. Sent the moment you subscribe.
Sighthound-specific medicine: anesthesia sensitivity, corns, fragile bones, deep-chest bloat risk, thyroid quirks, the questions to ask your vet that most vets don't volunteer.
Recall in a high-prey-drive dog. Decompression for retired racers. Why force-based methods break sensitive sighthounds. What actually works on the breed group bred to think for itself.
Why martingale collars are non-negotiable. Coats that actually keep them warm. Beds for deep-chested dogs. Reviews of what we've tested. Honest verdicts.
Search "Italian greyhound" on Instagram and you'll get 4 million posts of dogs in cashmere sweaters. Search "whippet" on Pinterest and you'll find mood boards. Search "greyhound rescue" and you'll find earnest pleas to adopt — but very little about what comes next.
Sighthound Society is the antidote. Practical, honest, opinionated. Written by an owner, for owners. Free, weekly, and short enough to read with morning coffee while your dog stretches across the entire couch.
One practical lesson per issue — a vet trick, a training fix, a gear discovery. Built around something we tested or something a sighthound veterinarian told us.
Three things worth reading: a study, a story, a thread. Curated, not aggregated.
One product reviewed honestly. Sometimes a recommendation. Sometimes a warning. We tell you when "the best collar for whippets" isn't.
A question from a subscriber, answered with what we actually know. If we don't know, we say so.
Free. Weekly. Practical. Built for the owners who chose a breed group on purpose and want to do it well.
