Meet Polly!

Breed:
Whippet
Age:
5
Location:
City of London, London
Bio:

Polly is a truly exceptional Whippet for hire, renowned for her calm, intelligent nature and impeccable obedience. With a perfect recall and the rare ability to walk to heel off-lead even in busy urban settings, Polly outshines the typical standards of her breed.She responds best when rewarded with treats, clear praise, and enthusiastic encouragement. Positive reinforcement, especially when delivered with energy and warmth, helps maintain her focus and eagerness to obey. Polly does not require repeated commands, and consistency from her handler helps maintain her strong training foundation.

Polly shows affection and loyalty, focusing deeply on people and thriving under clear leadership. She forms quick, strong bonds with people who engage her with enthusiasm and clarity. Polly thrives on affection and loves a good snuggle with her trusted humans, but she sets clear boundaries. With other dogs, Polly is calm, polite, and generally uninterested unless the interaction is soft and playful. She’s especially fond of smaller dogs and whippets but may be timid around rough or large breeds.

This Whippet for hire is both adaptable and adventurous. She enjoys exploring all types of environments. From city pavements to countryside paths and travels well by car, train, ferry, and even escalator. She’s comfortable in busy public spaces, remaining calm and quiet, often sitting on her own seat. Her impressive talents include high jumps, frisbee catching, object retrieval, and following her handler across streets safely. Polly turns heads with her grace and beauty and has won competitions for both her looks and her talent.

Polly stays calm around food and waits patiently for permission before eating. She actively pursues treats but never becomes obsessed with food. With consistent handling and clear leadership, Polly is the ideal canine model or animal actor, obedient, photogenic, and incredibly well-mannered. Whether on set or out in Chelsea where she’s affectionately nicknamed “Perfect Polly,” she’s always a star.
