ILIYJA

Long time Connoisseur of Italian Greyhound breed for past 23 years, exhibitor in conformation shows and various dog sports, my dogs have represented with success at Royal, State and National Levels. One of my IG's obtained over 30 ANKC (Dogs Australia) titles. Declining mobility has seen me scale back activities greatly in recent years but my love of a true functional sighthound in miniature is strong as ever. My dogs are Individuals first, companions second, and show/sports dogs third. I refuse to follow fads and trends, preferring to allow the breed to shine on its own as per the Breed Standard, without any fanfare. I am very much a quiet achiever. I am indebted to those who allowed my knowledge and passion for the breed to develop with their help, and their continued support into the future. I am breeding primarily for myself first, for support to like-minded breeders, and for a limited number of dedicated owners to share in the joy and beauty of my dogs also. Any and ALL prospective puppy owners will be required to complete my puppy questionnaire designed to match the right puppy to the right homes. Puppies going to pet homes will not leave my care before 12 weeks of age. Based in rural Queensland, I am unlikely to allow my very young puppies to be subjected to long travel times to Western Australia unfortunately.
