- Last week we were at the Dutch Windsprite gathering 2018 and of course I made some video footage of all these handsome dogs! Was a great day to see everyone again and meet new people! It was a lot of fun and of course Remus had a blast!
Breed: (Silken) Windsprite
A type of sighthound, formerly known as Longhaired Whippet

I just found out about this breed! And I’m Sooooo in Love
Nice video yet again! Can’t ever have enough of those doggies 😀
Thank you for watching and glad you enjoyed! :D
I love windsprites and I hope to get one in a few years, I just wish there were breeders in Canada. There are silken windhounds, but the windsprites sound much more biddable and loving :)
I've also heard that due to the borzoi influence they tend to shed more heavily and be more aloof, is this true??? I loved your vid btw
Thanks! They are a lovely breed. The Windhound has the borzoi influence more then the Windsprite does. Windhound is basically Windsprite x Borzoi, where Windsprite is mostly whippet with some sheltie in the past in there. Which make them often more willing to work and on. But of course that really depends on the training and the individual as well :) Windsprites are loving anyways, but to me all sighthounds are!
Where can I get one? And learn more about them as a breed!?!!
Depending on your location.. there are waiting lists as with most good breeders. I think google or social media are you best friend, there are several facebook groups that might be able to help ☺️
I met two of these over the summer. Never heard or seen this type before. I was looking at them and thinking, hmm they are small like a Whippet, but they are feathered like a Saluki what are these dogs?
You just should ask next time ;) There are two breeds that are quite alike like this, one just a bit bigger then the other; the Windsprite and the Silken Windhound. If you are in the US Silkens are more common, in Europe it will be the Windsprite that is more common then the other
