Italian Greyhound Breeders

Italian Greyhound

These graceful dogs date back to the Greek and Egyptian eras. They are perfect sight hounds in miniature, created thousands of years ago by breeding down standard size Greyhounds. These high stepping dogs are discerning, a little bashful and retiring in temperament. Typically determined and resourceful, they are good with children and ideal companions for fastidious people. They can be a little headstrong, but do train well with kindness. They do not do well in cold weather. Coat colors are cream, fawn, blue or black. Grooming needs are minimal (a rub down with a towel is all they need to look their best). Italian Greyhounds weigh 6 to 8 lbs. and stand 12 to 15" at the shoulders.
