Adoring and adorable companion - Italian Greyhounds!

According to the Italian Greyhound Club of America description of IGs: "Their greatest joy is to be with you. Once you aquire an Italian Greyhound you will never be alone again. If you like your privacy, the Italian Greyhound may not be the breed for you. This breed is not content to lie at your feet - they demand your attention!"

Our shop, Golly Gear, specializes in fun, affordable and practical products especially for small dogs. We know how difficult it can be to find the right fit for your Italian Greyhound and our knowledgeable staff is delighted to help you find just what you need, with the right style, size, and fit for your adorable Iggie.

Winter warmth for IGs

We know how hard it is to find properly-fitting attire for Italian Greyhounds, so we were delighted when we found the ChillyBuddy Winter Jacket. During the winter months when we host IG Meet-ups in our shop we always make sure we have plenty on hand - some lucky Iggies are always wearing their new coats when they leave.

Snuggly soft - indoors or out

We just found the Stretch Fleece Jacket and we're so glad we did. Super-soft, stretchy material is so cozy we wish the manufacturer made people-sized versions. Made in America of recycled polyester, the Stretch Fleece Jacket is generously-sized and stretchy enough to fit even deep-chested dogs like Italian Greyhounds. Machine wash and dry, available in three colors and six sizes.

Hound Collar

Hounds of any size have special needs when it comes to the collars they wear. A hound's collar should be wide and soft to protect their long, vulnerable trachea. The Hound Collar by RC Pet Products is practical and stylish for your little dog. A martingale design with brass hardware, the Hound Collar features a ribbon of color on the outside and soft fleece on the inside.

Teddy's chest is wide, rather than deep like an IGs, but you can see the comfortable, custom fit.

PerfectFit Harness

With the custom-fit design of a step-in type harness and the wide, soft straps characteristic of a vest-type harness, the PerfectFit Harness by Gooby may be the best of both worlds for Italian Greyhounds. It even features a v-neck design for a smoother fit around the dog's slender neck.

The straps on this harness are faux-suede, without any hard nylon webbing to cut into an IG's fur or irritate his sensitive skin. Many of the IGs who attend the Chicago area IG meet-up here in the shop have purchased this harness and the feedback has been completely positive.

EZ Harness

The EZHarness Set could be the answer to your prayers! It's a padded step-in harness that's easily and almost infinitely adjustable. The harness is padded, with felt toward your pup, and shaped for your little dog's comfort. Plus, the 4-foot leash is attached so you won't be fumbling with clasps, snaps and collar rings. Each color has a colorful coordinating ribbon sewn on the outside. And, of course, harness and leash colors match.

Pawz Disposable Dog Boots

Pawz is the answer for protecting your little dog's paws against snow melt, lawn chemicals, liquids, soil or sand. Pawz boots are made of natural rubber and are so thin your little dog can feel the ground, providing a sense of security. Pawz boots are waterproof.

Pawz boots are easy to put on your dog's little paws without straps or elastic. Just expand Pawz with your fingers and place on the paw, or use a tube to hold the boot while you hold your dog's foot. Pawz boots are reusable and disposable.

Luxury Harness & Leash Set

These are the most elegantly crafted harness and leash sets we've ever seen. They feel like suede and have the classy silver-tone closures and clasps.

The Luxury Harness by Gooby is secure and practical, too. Easy to put on, this is a step-in harness. The two cross straps (5/8 inch wide) are independently adjustable (from about 12 to 17 inches) for a secure, custom fit for your dog. The matching 50 inch-long leash is included.
