5 out of 5 stars Very Educational   June 5, 2008
If you are considering getting an IG, you really ought to read this book. This book is written by somebody who has had a lot of experience with Italian Greyhounds and she knows her stuff! She gives very detailed information on the history of IGs, different personalities and problems (both behavioral and health wise) you might run into, and great training and healthcare tips, along with information needed if you decide you have interest in showing a dog. It's helped us work well with our new IG. Very educational, and it's a recommended read by the Italian Greyhound Club of America [...].

Good book. Wish at least some of the pictures were color.
Could do without the many many many pages of pedigrees, but each to their own.

Lilian covers everything there is to know about IGs. From puppies to adulthood and show dogs. Well written with pages and pages of photographs.


5 out of 5 stars Iggy lovers will love this book   January 26, 2007

This is a wonderfully complete and detailed book, written by a person who knows iggies. If you are thinking of getting an IG or have one or more of the little precious furry creatures, then this is a must book. It is not a fancy book with glossy pages full of color photos. But it does have a good deal of photos, mostly black and white, of a number of IGs. Most of the photos are of iggies being shown at a dog show, but many many others of the precious sighthounds in all types of places, doing a lot of different things.

There are chapter after chapter of interesting discussions on a wide variety of issues and events that could occur during the life of an Italian Greyhound. IG parents are a special group of individuals - you have to be to live with an iggy or two or three or more. They are like potato chips - you can't have just one.
