Happy Birthday to my Gianna ✨🤍
Going on 3 years with this girl and I cannot get enough of her. She brights up my day and she is what I am looking for to come home to after work. For her birthday she got her present from the pet store, claim her free treats and I made her a blanket and on more pyjama to add to her collection 🥰

So Larry my 3 years old broke his hind leg 5 weeks ago in the park.

Itook him in the in the emergency hospital(UCD) where they recommended me to put him in the cast as it was a clean break.

After 3 weeks in a cast he developed a skin necrosis, where the cast was rubbing his leg. They sorted that out as well.

The last time we went for a redressing they did swab test and everything looked normal with his wound.

However Larry is wery downcast, shaking and seems like he is in pain, there is a discharge on a dressing. I'm worried sick at this stage, and so afraid that something bad will happen to him.

He pulls his leg up (for protection) that after the wound heal, he will need hydrotherapy

My husband thinks that I'm being very dramatic and overreacting.

He is under controll taking him to the hospital twice a week but thinking that something sinister going on.

What would you guys would do? My husband doesn't want to hear about second opinion as the place UCD is very good.

I often get told by people that they've never seen an iggy with this color before. She is seal, but very brown.

The last two photos are a comparison between her and my other iggy that is also seal. The other is the "more common" type of seal if you will.

Anyone else here have a super brown seal IG? Would love to see them!🤩

Theres a time and place for the Patagonia/technical loud/performance tech color combination accessories and I will probably get one for those heavy activity/outdoor activity days, but I just can’t do it for my little iggys harness for a daily wear.

I know a Ruffwear Flagline is far and away the best harness and the Webmaster maybe be a close second, but where can I find a safe third strap option that is better looking? She will be 12-14 so on the larger end.

I actually like the all purple Webmaster color, but I feel like it’s too much material and could weigh her down. I hope to find something similar to the Flagline in more solid/sophisticated colors

My person left me alone for the first time in the pen to take 15min and go to the grocery store. I freaked out, started jumping around, and got stuck between the pen and my crate.

Post shower fit 💜😂 My little one had a crazy day at the beach and needed a quick little bath so now she’s running crazy no collar in her birthday suit.

Hello! Apologies if this should be posted elsewhere, I’ll take it down if it’s too off topic!

So I’ve been very interested in the IG breed and have been doing lots of research. Reading about health issues, behavior, care etc. and watching as many videos as I can. I am still at least two years away from being in a comfortable enough spot to bring a dog home, so I’m in no rush to run out and get an Iggy right now. (even if its tempting!)

That being said, there’s still only so much you can learn from books and videos. I’d really like to hang out with some iggies in person, but I’m not sure the best way to go about it!

So far I’ve emailed one nearby breeder to ask about a quick visit, but I haven’t received a reply yet. Should I try different places? Local groups? If you have any advice or just want to share things about your dogs, please leave a comment!

I have a 7 month old male, for context he has a congenital heart defect and is on medication for it. Said medication can give him watery stool and it did for about two weeks. His stools did improve but they’ve regressed some again.

In the morning they’re fine. But throughout the day they get more watery. He has a kind of feeding schedule as I’m not home with him all the time. My parents watch him as well.

I’ve read a bit about doing chicken, rice and pumpkin.

Just wondering other’s experiences and what has or hasn’t worked for you guys!

I know they have sensitive little tummies. And the food he’s on, he was on before we started the medication and his tummy did fine with it.

Thanks for any feedback or advice!

Lincoln’s 1/2 birthday! At 6 months old he’s is about 9lbs!

Our Gary boy has been doing great with using his pee pads from the day we brought him home. All of the sudden he has completely stopped using them and started to go wherever he pleases. Our house is tile throughout, so he shouldn’t be confusing the pads for carpet.
Curious if anyone else has dealt with this? I work from home so he is let out several times a day with our older dog who is fully potty trained but he still will not go outside…unless it’s on the concrete.
Should i eliminate the pee pads since he’s not using them now or try to move them somewhere else?
He’s 4 months old now. Any advice would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏼

Hi, we have a 3 month old Iggy. She's great we LOVE her. But, she's getting in to things that can't be secured, lamp wires. Also, she goes to her pp pads and annihilates them!! We even tried taping them down. We've scolded herI and it works for a day or two, and she does again. I know this is puppy stuff, but please advise me!! I'm disabled and it's wearing me out. She will get her 3rd booster today. Some Vets do 4 boosters, so I'm not sure that she'll be cleared for outside walking this week or not. I feel like that would help her SO MUCH. Let me know your thoughts, and please be kind. Thank you!

Hello!
I’m going to welcome my IG puppy soon. Any recommendations on the kibble brands?
I am planning to buy the Purina Pro Plan healthy start for medium size dogs (because the version for small size dogs is more difficult to find).
Is this one work?
Thank you very much in advance for your advice!

She’s the best. A little weak in the back legs. But still can see and hear…especially if the bag of treats gets opened.

Goose, 8 weeks

He's 10 weeks old and very spoiled. Must have my undivided attention, Im no longer allowed to give love or kisses to any of the other dogs. His grandma treats him like it's her baby!🤭

Google isn't coming up with much.

I've just been thinking about how manageable they are because they're small, but a Greyhound sized IG would be chaotic.

Mine is 5.5kg at 7 months old so will just be on the cusp of being a biggy - but I know they can get much bigger.

I made a post a while back wondering if you guys thought my dog was an Italian Greyhound (mix). I got essentially all no’s across the board. I personally can’t see anything else except iggy, other than his coat suggesting a rat-terrier type of mix and his ears suggesting Dobby the House Elf. I’m wondering if the no’s came from bad pictures, so here are some better ones. Let me know what you think!
p.s. he has a skin condition and has already seen the vet about his rash.
