Going by this I would possibly say Italian Greyhound?

Going by common sense, women are always right, anyway

It's shot from an angle that's hard to tell, but for my money the head looks too small and narrow to be a whippet so I'd also go for Italian Greyhound.
I remember being in the vet's once and asked her woman what was up with her cat (she had a whicker basket on the lap) and it actually turned out she had an Italian Greyhound in there....it was a tiny blue one.“Don't do it!

The pets are all the actual PAH employees own pets as well..You could try ringing the store named on that dog clip and ask, i'm sure they wouldn't mind?

It is a whippet. Sorry!
I have a greyhound and a whippet and my aunt has an italian so I can assure you, it is a whippet.
Italians are absolutely tiny, they have far more petite heads. It looks like a lady whippy to me, they tend to be a bit more long and slim in the muzzle.
Whippets make great pets, very loving, elegant, cheap to feed, very low grooming, hardly any breed illnesses, they like being carried around like babies and they are big enough to not worry about but small enough to have a lap cuddle with. If you like the bigger dog, go for a greyhound, the iggies in this country are not from the best strains to be honest and can often have bone density issues and seizures. But, find a healthy strain and again, absolutely lovely pets!0 -
