THE LONG NOSE JOURNAL

Italian Greyhound puppies and home life

An Italian Greyhound puppy’s first week, home setup, beds, visitors and daily routines. Step-by-step guides from the Levretka Krevetka store journal.

A home with an Italian Greyhound gradually finds its own habits: a favourite spot, an easy route to water and quiet resting time. Explore everyday ideas and detailed guides for the first weeks with a puppy.

Choose one current task: bedding, flooring, working from home or meeting another animal. Observations of your own dog are more useful than a universal timetable. Health concerns or marked behaviour changes need the appropriate professional’s help.
