July 20, 2023: Dainty's Cashmere Beret got the major and the AKC points! She is so close to nailing her championship, I am so proud of this girl. She is beautiful, smart and has stunning movement. I am so honored that others with very experienced eyes for Conformation think so too. Thank you Judge Elizabeth Muthard for an amazing win today! Dainty's Cashmere Beret won Winner's Girl in a ring of 18 wonderful girls and their handlers. Thank you Houston Kennel Club, Judges, Stewards and the Onofrio folks for running a smooth show. Thank you dog show peeps for showing up and thank you Malinda and Jon Julien for the great photos that I get to share!
We spent 4 days in Houston hitting some of the biggest AKC conformation dog shows. Wednesday was our Italian Greyhound Specialty, and we shared the ring with incredible competition from all over the world. I love this Houston World Series of Dog Shows because I can see and meet the breeders picks and the future champions. There was a really big puppy division, 13 puppies from the ages of 9 to 18 months. Dainty's Cashmere Beret won third in our division, thank you Judge Cecilia Resnick for choosing us, you had sooo many great girls to choose from. Personally, I was really happy with Boerne today. She did everything I asked of her and more. Outside the ring Boerne got petted by 15 kindergartens who were on a fieldtrip and she let each kid take their turn! Now she gets to rest and eat lots of high calorie snacks and snuggle!

8/01/23: In our small breeding program we take partnering a breeding pair very seriously. Not only do they need to be quality in movement and structure, but they also need to be a great pet that will live a long and healthy life with their fur families. We look for the genetic markers that lead to breed specific diseases. For example the Italian Greyhound is prone to Familial Enamel Hypoplasia and Glaucoma.
UC Davis has been a valuable resource for us here at Dainty Acres. We can test for a variety of genetic patterns. We have been testing all our breeding pairs for years and as well as helping our clients get a better bred dog.
Sounds like we over think things here at Dainty Acres, and yes! You are right!
Dainty’s Cashmere Beret Genetic Diversity Test Results
Familial Enamel Hypoplasia (FEH): N/N
Susceptibility to PRA (SPRA): Aa BB Cc DD Ee
Susceptibility to Glaucoma (PCAG): N/N
3/24/23: Over the last couple of years, the average height of the AKC registered Italian Greyhound has pushed up to the top of that Breed Standard range. Most of the winning show dogs are measuring over 15 inches, and some reaching as high as 17 inches. Every pure breed of dog registered with AKC has a list of attributes and characteristics that are listed in that breeds “Breed Standard”. Breeders, owners, handlers and Judges refer to the AKC Breed Standard when they are picking dogs for the show ring or their breeding program. The Italian Greyhound Breed Standard says an Italian Greyhound should be between 13" and 15 inches tall.
