A unique hand crafted plaque depicting a Whippet

You can have your own dog on a plaque complete with your dog's name if desired.  All you require is a photograph, refer to our personalised section for details.

All our resin coated plaques are made to order and hand crafted in Scotland by skilled craftsmen using the finest quality materials. Most of our plaques are available in different sizes, wood colour and shapes. They all are finished to a very high standard and are unmistakable by their very high gloss appearance. The plaques are very easily cared for as they only require a damp cloth to keep their everlasting shine.

Please note these plaques are not intended for outdoor use but will last for many years. In the case of our personalised plaques this will give you a unique, lasting memory of that special event or loved one and will eventually become a treasured heirloom.

Whippets are generally quiet and gentle dogs, and may be content to spend much of the day resting. Although especially attached to their owners, they are friendly to visitors. They are not prone to snapping, so they are good with young children.

Whippets have been called a "poor man's racehorse." As their heritage would suggest, whippets are outstanding running dogs

Whippets were bred to hunt by sight, coursing game in open areas at high speeds. One can find numerous representations of small greyhound-like hounds in art dating back to Roman times but the first written English use of the word "whippet" with regard to a type of dog was in 1610.
