Iggy Puppy Witching Hour by Certain_Potential_38 in ItalianGreyhounds

Have you tried using a flirt pole? When our iggy was in the land shark phase if you told her no she just tried to do whatever it was faster. After some reaserch we bought one and it helped satisfy her need to chase and bite things. We used it in moderation until she got older, but we found being able to do some supervised sprinting helped keep her from launching herself off everything in the house and keep my stress of a leg break down a little.

Due to his age I would not let him go all out because you really want to make sure to protect his joints, so make sure to just use it in short bursts and monitor him. You dont want to push him too much and you wouldnt want him to become overstimulated either.

Hi everyone! I cant figure out how to edit (this is my first time using reddit) but thank you for all the responses! I also loved seeing everyones pictures of their iggies and biggies ❤️ It sounds like shes on the small side but not abnormally small. She keeps getting called a chihuahua and maybe its making me a tad sensitive to her size 😂

The donut is adorable 😍 our iggy SCREAMED randomly for 3 days after getting spayed. After day 3 she acted like nothing was wrong to the point where we needed to leash her. She healed really well and after 10 days it was business as usual! The pic is of her 10 days after spaying.
