Walking on a leash: I am blind so it is hard for me to walk on a leash.
Crate training - please note that we teach crating as a 'safe happy personal space' where the IG can rest/sleep when confinement is necessary. Crates should NEVER be used as a punishment or 'time out' space: I don't do well in crates.
Italian Greyhounds are known for housebreaking issues and most will have occasional accidents. As an IG parent you must be willing to commit to a structured and reasonable routine to keep your iggy from having excessive indoor accidents. My house-training Status is: Very rare or no indoor accidents.
A little more about me and my personality: I am a loner. I like the occasional pets on the head.
If I have a known medical issue or am taking any medications, they are listed here: I take medicine for pain for my arthritis once a day. I have cataracts so I am considered blind. |
