My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This five-year old, 24.3 pound, purebred Italian Greyhound (yes, he is large for the breed!) has a great personality and is truly delightful. He is also a quick learner, mastering verbal cues, leash walking, and even housetraining with surprizing speed. Koby is good with other dogs, and friendly when meeting people. Once he bonds with you, he loves to give hugs and cuddle next to you on the sofa. He will also occassionally jump into your lap for some shared together time. Although Koby settles down nicely inside, he enjoys playing with toys, and going for walks and runs. He is well-built and it is a pleasure to see him in motion. Koby has color dilution alopecia and, consequently, has hair loss predominantly on his back. Due to his skin coloration, the hair loss is not that noticeable and the condition does not affect his health. He also has a mild luxating patella that doesn't slow him down, and has had one seizure within an approximately two month time-frame (he is not on medication). Please do not be deterred by these conditions, or you will be missing out on a fabulous dog! If you are interested in sharing your home with this gentle guy, please contact Italian Greyhound Place.
