The Whippet's coat is barely there, short and fine over notably thin, delicate skin that nicks and chills easily. Grooming is quick: a soft glove or chamois for shine and a gentle, well-warmed bath. The real work is careful nail trimming and checking the skin for tears, since there is little coat to cushion it.
