Do you love the Italian Greyhound2007-11-25 3:00:54

We own an Italian Greyhound, named Laska. Color isabel. We have never met another Italian in that color. Who has ?

**NOT** my "cuppa tea"! NOT interested in that sort of shivery,fragile,useless beast.

ALLOWABLE colors are listed in the BREED STANDARD!

Yes!

And pay no attention to RAVING LUNATICS!

I have an italian greyhound also, and LOVE them!

I have heard of the isabel color, although I do not believe it is in the breed standard. It is probably a name for a mix of colors that is common in other dogs to give people a reference.

For example - my IG is really Taupe in color, but that is not a color in the IG standard. He is a blue fawn, but does not have dominant blue or fawn! So I just call him taupe so that people have a better sense of what color he is.

Here is a great website that discusses coat colors:

I adore IGs but they are too fragile for me.We have a whippet instead.a bit bigger, less "breakable", but same fantastic characteristics.
