Cirneco Dell'Etna Puppies for Sale, NSW

We first fell in love with "Cirnechi" whilst watching the Hound Group at Westminster in 2020. Having a keen interest in sighthounds I became quickly besotted with this unique breed. We have since travelled to the United States, where there is an established breed presence and been lucky enough to visit many shows across the country, as well as the 2023 Cirneco National in Chicago. We imported our foundation bitch Aust CH AM CH Kr'msun Lavinia Fontanta (IMP USA) in 2022 and planning on breeding our first litter in early 2025 once our foundation male arrives. The Cirneco Dell'Etna is a rare breed that has been present in Sicily since ancient times, where they are used primarily to hunt small game amongst the rocky terrain of Mount Etna. They are thought to have been originally introduced to the Mediterranean basin by the Phoenician traders. Our aim in breeding the Cirnechi is to preseve the unique qualities and function of the breed. Breeding for type, temperament and soundness for show ring, lure coursing and as loving pets. Cirnechi are a strong willed breed, extremely connected with their owners as well as highly alert. They are very good house dogs and extremely clean. They do require daily exercise and regular off lead running in order to satisfy their intelligent and inquisitive nature. Our dogs are well socialised and are part of the family participating in a variety of activities. All our dogs are health tested. We welcome any enquiries and questions.
