About

Picottine

If you are looking for a dog with the potential of being a master cuddler, then look no further.  My name is Picottine and I am a 5.5-year-old Italian Greyhound.  If you are interested in adopting me, you should first do a little research on my breed.  In addition to seeking warmth and seeking a nice cozy spot to curl up, more importantly I am on the lookout for a family that will commit to me for the rest of my life.

I am one of five Italian Greyhound who recently made their way to Animatch.  We were part of a breeding program and although we were kept in a clean and very safe environment, we lacked a little one-on-one attention.  So, whoever adopts me must be ready to do some socializing and let me progress at my own speed.  

Much as I enjoy the creature comforts, I am not always a couch potato.  I will need daily exercise and interactive play time.  Although I love to perch myself on a sofa in a front of a window and watch the world go by, I can also run like wind.  If you live in a house, a fenced yard would be recommended.  Insofar as off leash walks are concerned, that would be foolish as I will outrun you!  Don’t forget I do have a prey drive.  

Once I have settled into my new home, training would go a long way into boosting my confidence.  I respond favorably to gentle, upbeat training methods preferably ones that involve liver treats!  I would do best with an adult family or one with older children who respect dogs.  For the time being, I need slow introductions.
