Getting a new puppy tomorrow!!!!!

[Jay84]

I am so excited! I have made the big step of getting a puppy. He is a beautiful 10 week old purebred Italian Greyhound. I have wanted one ever since i was a kid and my dog befriended one in the reserve out the back of my parents house. Their gracefulness, their calm nature, the elegance, sleekness, and of course their royal heritage hahahaha

Also, over the years i have done lots of reading about the breed. When considering getting a dog i narrowed it down to a few breeds - Chihuahua, french bulldog, dachsund, italian greyhound. The only two breeds that seem to be healthy and not suffer major health issues are the chihuahua and IG.

I am collecting him tomorrow from the breeders house. Did i mention i was excited?

So here is a pic that the breeder took. I will be sure to take more once he is in his new home with his 2 daddies lol

Gee, looking at the other dogs, looks like you definitely made the right choice lol.

I love grey hounds, such an underrated dog.

Congrats

 

[Sezzzzzzzzz]

hes so cute!! They arent the sam e as the greyhounds used for racing are they?

 

[Jay84]

This is an Italian Greyhound, they are classed as a toy breed, only weighing around 3 - 4 kg as adults. ALOT smaller than your standard greyhound.

 

[Sezzzzzzzzz]

oh how sweet. have you named him yet?

 

[Jay84]

Not the ones used for racing no, they are BIG dogs. These little guys are just miniatures of the larger standard greyhound.

oh how sweet. have you named him yet?

Still tossing up on names.

We are thinking Dante. It is Italian lol. i think it sounds cute

Dante sounds good

Just make sure you get him a cute little jacket.
They have barely any body fat and get real cold, real easy.

Hahahah, Moo would bowl him over! Rogue is huge but gentle, she can play with him. I'll probably bring him over this weekend when i come and collect the rodent food etc. Your dogs have been vaccinated etc??

Dante sounds good

Just make sure you get him a cute little jacket.

Thanks, and don't worry. Dante will be the most tastefully accessorised dog in town hahaha. Gonna get him a cute little collar and a cool wardrobe hahaha.
