Description: 
Please contact Scott (lincolnigs@yahoo.com) for more information about this pet. Saddler is about a one year old male IG who is white with black markings. Saddlebag is this dog's nickname (and original name) due to his very unique markings that make him look like he has saddlebags over his front legs on both sides. This guy is a little shy around people currently and will need a lot of love and attention to get him to be a great companion. He is very food motivated and a piece of ham will catch his attention and have him begging for it. So, this could easily be used as a training tool for this little guy. He will weigh around 12 lbs when he puts on some weight. He will be fixed soon before being adopted, but is already up-to-date on shots. Currently he is being fostered in Lincoln, NE. This little guy and 14 other dogs were part of a rescue effort between the Kearney NE Humane society, the Nebraska IG Rescue, and the State of Nebraska. The Nebraska IG Rescue ended up taking 11 of the 14 Italian Greyhounds, and 3 stayed with the Kearney Humane society.
