With all her 3kg of tiny we were mindful of Florence’s petit frame. But as the rockstar she is, active labour at 6.30pm last night and 3 hours later we have 2 boys and a girl! Mother and pups are strong and healthy. Super proud of Florence. She’s taken to motherhood like a pro. Puppies are clean, fed and settled ☀️

… we are a lady in waiting (of sorts!). She’s been a little unsettled today so are running a ‘reverse progesterone’ blood test which might help fine tune when we are expecting these 3 precious pups!
No expressions of interest will be taken as a shortlist has been made.

Thank you for the expressions of interest. I will not be taking any more offers. Florence looks to be having 3-4 pups and we have 20 or so expressions of interest. It isn’t a first in first served situation. We need to know about you so Italian greyhounds go to homes ready for these sensitive little creatures. They aren’t just ‘any’ breed and they need company to be happy and well adjusted.

So, now we wait!

No homes will be finalised or deposits taken etc until the litter has arrived and we have numbers and genders.

I will be making contact with those who have messaged to provide further information.

Tito is the sire, Florence (daughter to Lucca and Matisse) is the dam. All are genetically tested and are ideal for breeding. Tito is in earlier pictures, I can pop up pregnancy pics of Florence as we go. Colours expected would be anything from solid to pied and white Irish. They may surprise us.

As I have said, people’s circumstances often change, even up until a week or two before the pups go. Never say never until I post their homes are finalised. ☀️

Hello Iggy Fans!
I know it’s been a minute and we have been waiting for wee Florence to be ready but the time has come.

We are delighted to announce we will have a litter around 20th October, with pups ready for their new homes around 20th December.

We have had many expressions of interest during this long waiting time but understandably people’s circumstances change over that time.

So, now is the time!

Please message Amatissimo directly for expressions of interest.

Depending on how Florence carries the pups, as she is a petit, this could be the last litter for Amatissimo.
