📜History | The little Italian Sighthound descends from small-sized sighthounds that already existed in ancient Egypt at the court of the Pharaohs. Passing through Laconie (Greece), the breed arrived in Italy at the outset of the 5th century BC. Its greatest development occurred during the Renaissance at the court of the nobles. |
