Wolf and Whippet
ABOUT US / THE TEAM
​
MEET THE HUMAN'S
Suzy is also an independent artist and author who works from home. Through photography she developed a passion for wolves and conservation, inspiring her to share her home with Okami, an Alaskan Malamute. Okami sadly passed away in 2022, but his memory lives on with Yuna, a Siberian Husky, whom Suzy adopted from a sled-dog rescue as a puppy. Suzy decided Yuna should stay with her as her forever home, due to her anxiety and working lines, which she has harnessed into sled-training and activities for fun. Their older brother, a 14-year-old Pomeranian called Iggy aka Mr Teddy Pompoms passed away in January 2017, but will always be remembered as the inspiration for their Golden Oldie visits. Throughout her life, Suzy has lived with dogs, from a Cocker Spaniel to a Giant Schnauzer. This experience of handling various breeds being very useful at the W&W. Meeting Fran and Poppy has meant the creation of Wolf and Whippet and the opportunity to further study Canine Behaviour. Focusing on Northern and Primitive breeds, offering advice to rescues and other professionals.

Frankie is experienced with reptiles and exotics after owning snakes and lizards and currently sharing her home with two rescue cats. However, since getting her dog Poppy she has came to realise, that she wanted to be more involved with the animal world and snapped up the chance to create the Wolf and Whippet with Suzy. Fran has added a rescue Lurcher to her pack called Reuben, who she has worked building trust with after trauma that occurred in early life.
