Italian Greyhound

This fine-boned and slender little dog is very affectionate and mild-mannered. It is submissive and wants nothing more in this world than to please its owners. They can be very sensitive to your tone of voice and your actions and can tell if you can dominate them or not. Although they possess excellent socialization skills, they can be reserved with strangers. They can be easily trained however they can be timid and high-strung if they don’t receive enough regular exercise. They are fairly active indoors and do well without a year to romp in. They are highly sensitive to cold weather.
