About Me
 
Gen and Me web.jpg
 

Always a dog lover, I've had a few different breeds over my lifetime. I've always had a fondness for Sighthounds so Italian Greyhounds have been the perfect fit for me. I've exculsively shown and own them for over 20 years. They can be difficult dogs to exhibit because of their aloof and sensitive nature. Please be careful who you buy a puppy from. Breeding is more than putting two pretty dogs together. It takes a lot of time, researching of pedigrees, socializing pups, health testing and money.

About My IGs

All my IGs are health tested. I strive to breed only the healthiest, soundest and the closest fit to the AKC Standard. I take seriously the mandate to protect the breed. Healthy IG's are my number one priority.

Martingale Collars

I've been making Fancy Martingale Collars for IGs  for over 10 years. I started when I wanted something really pretty for my own IGs and couldn't find any that were with in my price range, unusual and special. I started with the bell collars when I saw some Saluki's wearing them--then in the last 5 years I've expanded to Rhinestones, Tiger Eye, Agate and Turquoise. I love the sparkle of Rhinestones the best. All my collars have a very low mark up so that anyone can have a beautiful collar at an affordable price. All breeds and sizes of dogs wear my collars such as Chinese Cresteds, Saluki', big Greyhounds, Boxers, Standard Poodles and Whippets. French Bulldogs do too!

My Beliefs

As a Christian I'm determined to maintain a high standard of conduct, integrity, ethics and honesty in everything I do. This would include my customers, clients, relationships, exhibiting dogs, care of our dogs and of course breeding. My moral code is founded on Biblical principles-- God's commandments and statues. Just as there is no perfect dogs there are no perfect human beings, but those who are in a relationship with the living God are also accountable to Him. I am always striving to reflect His perfect standard and perfect love.
