If you are looking for an elegant, medium-sized primitive dog with lots of temperament that is also gentle and affectionate, the Cirneco dell'Etna may be the dog for you. When I went to pick Ambra up the day she arrived from Sicily, the first thing I noticed about her was not her classic beauty, but how much joy she gets out of life. Every experience is an adventure ----- whether it be treeing a squirrel, saying hello to a new best friend or throwing a toy. People are wonderful, other dogs great playmates. Of course since she is a wild rabbit hunter she doesn't get a chance to cuddle up to hares, the results might not be to my liking!!!
