The Whos, like all species, have a degree of diversity. Grinches are just a Who ethnic minority. Whoville is a Sundown Town; Grinches aren't allowed in city limits after nightfall. Why do you think The Grinch lives in a cave? Hell, they don't even let him have a name. He's just "The Grinch." They're doing the equivalent of calling the one member of a minority group in town "The Black" or "The Jew."
Whos are terrible people. They deserved to have their Christmas stolen.

No, Grinches are a distinct species:
I don't see any reference to two distinct species in that page..
It's true that a Grinch could be a kind of Who, but considering how different Whos look compared to this Grinch and the famous green one, there's no reason to think they are.
Humans of different races can look pretty different from one another and only a problematic few would have trouble thinking we're the same species.
Starting to sound like a Who Supremacist to me /s
You have two species that can understand each other's languages, live in close proximity, have the same body plan, and are both the rarest form of species - sentient intelligent tool users. The odds that they both evolved simultaneously and independently is vanishingly small. Maybe they're a homo sapiens/neanderthal situation - two separate but related species. But odds are this is simply a case of racial persecution.
Oh, I'm sure they're related, but other than being humanoid (along with many, many other Seussian species), there's nothing linking them as being the same species. The Grinch's size alone is considerably larger than a Who's.
That's a 31 year old woman and a 40 year old man. Both indubitably human.
Figures the grinch would get a dog at a pet store instead of a shelter.
I believe the theory is he was an unwanted Christmas present
The Grinch or the dog?
I don’t think the grinch would get a dog at all to be honest.
Its Max who adopted the grinch instead.
As if the grinch would get his dog anywhere but out of the trash.
The hell is the employee even asking? Would they not allow a chick to get a dog?
Birds are generally incapable of caring for dogs
I got concerned here before I realised it was referring to the animal ("bird" here is a misogynistic term for woman)
Employee: We don't see color here
