It started with Dante.
SLAYHOUND began long before it had a name.
It started with a phone call telling us that an Italian Greyhound named Dante needed a new home. We had dreamed of having an Iggy for so long, and suddenly, there he was. His previous owner could no longer keep him, so we welcomed him into our family with one very simple promise: to give him the best life we possibly could.
Naturally, that included the wardrobe.
We quickly discovered that dressing an Italian Greyhound is easier said than done. Their long backs, deep chests, tiny waists and impossibly skinny legs aren’t exactly made for standard dog clothes. Pieces we loved rarely fit the way they should, and we often found ourselves altering them at home just to make them work for Dante’s wonderfully weird proportions.
And somewhere between the pins, adjustments and outfit changes, the idea for SLAYHOUND was born.
We wanted Italian Greyhounds to have clothes that actually fit, without giving up on style. Because we genuinely believe that when you look good, you feel good.
And maybe we’re biased, but we’ve seen it ourselves. There’s a certain look Dante gives us when the outfit is just right. A little taller. A little prouder. Fully aware that he’s serving.
SLAYHOUND is our way of sharing that feeling with every Iggy.
