These Greyhounds, Italian Greyhounds and Whippets Will Have You Racing to the Tattoo Parlour

Despite them appearing to look relatively similar to one another, albeit in size large, medium and small, the English greyhound, the whippet and the Italian greyhound are three distinctly different dog breeds.

Two of the most recognised Italian greyhounds would have to be Kermit and Peach – the dog children of YouTubers, Jenna Marbles and Julien Solomita.

(English) greyhounds have been described as “45-mile-per-hour couch potatoes”; they love to run fast but they love to sleep even more. They’ll sleep 18 hours a day, with the remainder of the day spent having quality time with their human companions. After the adrenaline’s worn off from your tattoo session you may find yourself wanting to do the same.

When it comes to tattoos, the addition of other stylised elements reminds people that these dogs do indeed have personalities (just like other breeds), and there’s so much more to them (greyhounds, especially) than racing and gambling.

After you’ve had a good look at these tattoos, make like a greyhound and race off to book your next tattoo appointment.
