If you are counting fish, yes.

Other than that I did not research Greys/whippets. I had no idea I would ever get one. I researched for a beagle ( before pheobe died ), english springer spaniel, bernese, border collie and about a million other breeds that I would have liked to have. I did thousands of reaserch of dogs, though. Just not greys in particular. She just sort of found me one day. ( best day of my life. )

Of course, now I would never have any breed other than a grey, so in the futur, I will have reaserched the breed.
