Remi's mom says: Remi Bella was my first puppy. She has brought such joy to my life that I wonder why I waited fifty years to start a family. She arrived in March 2007 when she was twelve weeks old and never once cried, barked or growled. She loves to lie in her bed in a sunny window and cuddle with Mommy in "our" bed. Remi is a great communicator...she points, taps, and leads to me the things she wants or needs. Because she's an Italian Greyhound, she has transformed our home into a race track. It's amazing to watch Remi Bella and her baby sister, Chloe, fly like bullets from room to room, using the bed, toy chest, and chair arms as hurdles. She may look delicate, but her athletic abilities, agility, and flexibility are incredible!
Love the one of Remi Bella and Chloe (both beautiful), but I got my biggest smile from Remi Bella's "pin-up" shot! :-)
I had never heard of the IG until I adopted a dog that was half IG and half Chihuahua......My boy has the IG body, but the head of a Chi! Beautiful, graceful body with BIG ears!!! :)
I totally can relate to Remi turning your house into a racetrack! They certainly know how to put their energy to use!!! I love watching my boy run around in the yard as well. Enjoy your pretty girls!
Oh my gosh, your girls are TOO SWEET! They look like such lovely and fun creatures - and fast, way fast. There is nothing like a puppy... or two! May you and Remi Bella and Chloe have many, many happy years together.
The way you started your description (with the past tense) I thought that she had passed away and tears came to my eyes! I am glad that I kept reading!! She is so sleek looking and quite beautiful. Many happy years to you both!
By the way...love this picture. She looks like you just caught her doing some thing bad!
I live with 2 IG's (one is 16 and one is 12 years old) and one dachshund. They rule the house -- your girls are simply gorgeous! I wish for you many happy healthy years with these sensitive, sweet, loving and beautiful girls!!!!
She is a beautiful baby!!! Her middle name "Bella" fits her perfectly! Her sister Chloe is so cute too! I LOVE Italian greyhounds!!! Lots of hugs! 11+ biscuits !!!!!!!: )
[color=green]Such a petite beautiful puppy dog!! 'Bella' fits her to a T - she looks very content and definitely fiesty. Great idea to get her a little sister - that way they can chase around together when you get tuckered out - haha! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy! [/color]
What a pretty pair! One of my neighbors has a pair as well, and I always smile watching them prance down the street. That last picture is just the cutest thing!
OMG - what a beauty! Bella, indeed! Those eyes, those long lovely limbs - definitely an Italian aristocrat. But the nibbling-the-bed pic! That really tickled me - 'cause there she is in all the photos looking sooo sophisticated, demure and elegant...then, oops! Oh yeah, don't doubt, I'm definitely a PUPPY! LOL! Awesome little lady.
Lots of love & happiness to all three of you (Chloe is a beauty, too!)
What an exceptionally beautiful puppy. Those eyes, you can see straight to her beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing !!!
What a beautiful little lady.
So wise of you to get her a playmate too - now they can blame each other for the mischief!
Hope you are blessed with the company of these beautiful ladies for a long, long time.
These are awfully pretty girls you have there! I've always thought this breed is kind of exotic. Just beautiful with lots of character.
Remi is so regal looking. Very beautiful!!! I think that the race track she has in your home must make her feel great!!! I love the way they use all our furniture to perfom stunts! :) Greetings from Toronto and saying that your Remi is very precious.:)
I know most doggies on this website have a wonderful life- but the ones with a brother or sister (dog) are really the happiest. It really is a good thing for them to have another dog in the house- thank you for doing that for Remi!!! Have a wonderful life with your "children".
Well I would have to quit my job and stay home all day and play with these gorgeous little critters if they lived with me. You are blessed to have such beautiful creatures to take care of. Enjoy your spirited babies.
Ciao Bella!
You better keep an eye on your pups because I want to steal them! I have wanted an IG for a long time. They are both beautiful pups!
Aaaaaaawwwwwwwww!!!! She's so sweet and adorable looking. IG's are one of my favorite breeds. I waaaaannnnntttt oooonnnneee!!!! She looks justifiably pampered. ;-)
You have beautiful girls. This picture of Remi Bella under the covers is adorible. Lots of Love & biscuits to the family.
Both Remi Bella and Chloe are adorable......I never got into the Greyhounds too much as I didn't know much about them until my fiance brought his two year old greyhound/lab mix, Gambit, into my life. Everything you say is so true..... they are a magnificant breed to watch with their grace and agility. Gambit's wonderful behavior tells me that both breeds are a joy to have. Enjoy the many years to come with your girls!
Remi is a BEAUTY.. Such a pretty face and her coloring is gorgeous.. She looks so sweet, too.. 11 billion biscuits for Remi ;)
Remi is so beautiful, I mean really beautiful. Her coat and eyes. WOW!! Her pictures are all wonderful and she looks like such a delicate lady in them. I know though. She is very athletic. Good for you that you have started a family after fifty years. Yes, they bring so much love into your life, not to mention all the smiles they bring. No wonder people live longer if they have a dog in their home. God Bless you all with love, health, and happiness.
You have a beautiful family and I wish you much happiness with them. Now this photo clearly demonstrates the wisdom of metal furniture. I don't and have the toothy mementoes to prove it!
22 plus biscuits to the delightful Remi Bella and Chloe.
Very Best Wishes from Sunny Spain.
Hey, turn off the light, it's bedtime!!
Remi is beautiful, and I'm sorry but 11 biscuits isn't enough. Greyhouds are so wonderful and you are so lucky to have TWO!! Love those babies hard and many years of bliss for you all
What a beautiful pair of girls. I'd love to have an ig - I have two greyhounds who are big and bouncy and would prbably flatten an ig!
Every time a non-dog person becomes a dog person, the world becomes a little better. Glad you discovered the joys of sharing your life with a canine.
Love this pic... is this how she manages to get your attention and then exactly what she wants? What an artist. Gorgeous.
They are both stunning creatures. They look so regal and delicate but they are really atheltes as you say. I hope they have long and fun filled lives. Many, many biscuits to both of your beauties.
pretty pretty princess! I have never really considered an itanlian greyhound before but she is lovely!
Little Remi Bella is sooooooooo cute! She looks so full of personality and joy. Absolutely adorable!
What beautiful girls! I hope they bring you lots of love and happiness for many, many years to come!
I loved Chole's pics that were on here recently and am glad to see Remi now!!! I love these happy wee pups!
Now Remi Bella, A beautiful little princess such as your self should not be chewing on furniture!!!!! You need a diamond to chew on (ha ha)
I have trained many dogs over the years, but training an Italian Greyhound was truly a pleasure. His name is Jack and he has a great mommy and daddy who did everything I taught them to do. I still see Jack and his family at the doggie park from time to time. He has grown into a very handsome boy. They are a beautiful and elegant breed. Lots of gentle hugs and kisses!!
Bella is absolutely drop dead gorgeous! So sleek and streamlined.
Pretty collar but please loosen it up a bit!!! Her name fits her well.
Many wonderful years with your beautiful baby girl.
The sweetest face this side of the moon! I am TOTALLY in love with your Remi. Look at those eyes! Oh! Oh! My heart is melting...
Look at that sweet face!! I have had the pleasure of being around a greyhound, only once, but what a joy! They are such gentle dogs! Too bad they have the life they do, when they are used for racing. Such a sweetheart! Thanks for sharing!
Ah Remi Bella, bella raggazza!! You are such a delicate, pretty little girl! A million biscuits for you. May life bring you all the hugs, pats and special treats that you deserve!
They sure can tuck those legs all the way under. So so pretty. Sorry you waited so long. I once read that getting old means realizing you will never have all the dogs you hoped to have in your life. I too think the collar looks tight but it is probably just the pic as I'm sure Mom checks those things. Some in this blog have your babes mixed up with Greyhounds. They are gorgeous.
First the face, then the pink satin and then Chloe. She is definitely beautiful like most things Italian.
Hoping to see Chloe posted as well because what could be better than two featured Italian greyhounds? Bella, you can't be described in words. And Mom so glad you've caught the "bug" and now have two girls.

What a beauty she is; her eyes are absolutely intriguing. I wish you many, many happy and healthy years with your pup.:-)
[color=darkred]Remi Bella is precious! I love how her eyes are so deep, sad looking, when really they are just full of love and I can tell thats exactly what you provide. I also love her sister, I think they are both too cute! I love her collar and also the picture of her laying in the bed with an innocent look! I'm sure you know but 'Bella' means Beautiful in Italian, and she sure is living up to a full - time Bella! :] 11 buscuits,and tons of luck coming your way! Blessings!

Squee! This is one of my absolute favourite breeds! Remi is gorgeous, just perfect, as is her little sister. I love the way her colouring makes her nose look like a little heart!
The look of Love. I sure hope mom has the energy to take both pups out for much needed running and playful fun. Both with you and with many other dogs too.Good luck keeping up. Were both in your age group, we have a 9 year old small breed dog and we take him out so often for play and fun and needs. That when anyone in our building sees either of us without him, their first words in many languages is where is Max. Children who were raised with the fear of dogs, can't wait to see him again. Very Very best of luck. JC. and Max too ! ps we have 1 parrot, 6 budgies and fish, they are all family to us. Our only son left home 7 years ago.He loves all animals to, but don't have time for to get his own yet.
[color=purple]Oh Remi Bella you are sooooo cute!!!! Absolutely ADORABLE!!! :) your little sister Chloe is really cute too! and I bet you are the best of friends!!! :)
Many kisses, hugs and biscuits to you!!!!
Happy New Year and best wishes always!!![/color]
She's a pretty baby. :) Lovely eyes. I love her color too. :D Have a wonderful life Remi Bella....and your little sister too. ;-)
Bella you are so very sweet looking. Aren't blankies wonderfull? Keeps my Chihuahua warm too. I hope you wear a jacket or a sweater when you go outside. Stay a happy little sweetie. LUV YA.
Awww. So Cute. I would love to pet her. I bet that watching her run around outside would be a lot of fun!
Remi, you and your lil sis Chloe are gorgeous!!! I think your breed is just awesome with your athletic ability and your beauty. :-) I hope you both have long healthy fun lives and a million doggie treats to you both too :-)
Congratulations on your 2 beautiful babies! They are absolutely stunning. Wishing you many happy years with these little beauties!
xoxoxoxo
[color=red]I have a strange passion for Italian Greyhounds, although i don't have one and never have had one. We can't have one at the moment because we have plenty of dogs already.
I am half Italian and I love any breed that is Italian.
Remi is very sleek and elegant as all Italian Greyhounds are and although they do look very fragile and breakable, as her owner said, they are actually quite muscular and very athletic,very speedy aswell.
But they are so so gentle and so beautiful. This breed is fascinating and I love them so so much. What i would give to have one of these........
They are very slender with, as you can see, big jewel eyes that bore into you. This is one type of dog that i can actually truly say is beautiful.
They are actually stunning. Honestly and seriously, they really are gorgeous.
You are so so lucky to have these pups and good luck with them.[/color]
(oh by the way on the third picture down from the very top, I really think you should loosen that collar, looks a bit tight).
