Who we are
We are Maggie and Del Wasso and we reside in Gardner, Illinois approximately 70 miles west of Chicago.
Our whippets compete in the original purpose of the breed ... racing, but we don't stop there. We also attend select conformation events and host racing (with club sponsored fun matches), training sessions and race practices at our home which is situationed on 5 acres. To visit the race club's site, click the link to the right of this page. Group photo of Maggie and Del with (left to right) Dawn, Waco, Vicki, Jasper and Pepper taken by Larry Vano.
