<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nWe are daughter Inka Forss<\/strong> and mother Erja Luomanm\u00e4ki<\/strong> from Helsinki, Finland. The journey with the Cirneco dell’Etnas started in 1997. The Italian Greyhounds became a part of our lives two years later, in 1999. We acquired our affix ”Iosono” in 2000. Iosono is Italian and it means ”I am” (io=I, sono=am) in English. Our first Cirneco dell’Etna litter was born 2000 and the first Italian Greyhound litter in 2007. Until this day we have bred 23 Cirneco litters and 10 Italian Greyhound litters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The first dog of Inka, Cirneco dell’Etna Bambi<\/strong> (1997-2012), was imported from Italy. Bambi became Multi Champion and the foundation bitch of the Iosono Cirneco dell’Etnas. Bambi\u2019s influence in breeding can be seen in Cirneco population around the world – especially in Finland but also in the US. Bambi had two litters, the first one was born in 2000 by Felix del Gelso Bianco<\/strong> and the second one in 2001 by the famous Tot\u00f2<\/strong>. We are eternally grateful for Bambi’s breeders Domenico Tricomi <\/strong>and Jane Moore <\/strong>(Hadranensis) for being our mentors and good friends during these years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The first Italian Greyhound of ours was from well-known Necku kennel by respected Teija Urpelainen<\/strong>: FI CH (+ three lure coursing certificates) Necku C\u2019est Cela<\/strong> (1999-2003). Necku C’est Cela became the mother of our foundation bitch: World Winner, Specialty BIS Winner, Finnish Champion Necku Iosono Vicenza<\/strong> (2003-2017). Vicenza’s daughter FI CH Iosono Fiamma<\/strong> (sired by Movado Ric Rosso<\/strong>) continued the bloodline and currently all Italian Greyhounds born at us descend from this bloodline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All our dogs are dear family members and we tend to keep only a couple of dogs at home. Most of our dogs are co-owned and they live with their own families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our dogs have been highly awarded in all breed level. We placed 6th in Top Breeder of the Year (all breeds) in Finland 2019 and 12th in 2018. We have bred or owned Top Winning Cirnecos in Finland 2003, 2004, 2006, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. Our dogs have achieved World and European Winner titles and many other Champion or winner titles, group wins or placements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Due to a small genepole in both breeds we have imported dogs from Italy, UK, Belgium, Sweden, France and Russia. We have often travelled abroad for matings in order to maintain the correct breed type and temperament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Contact us<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Iosono Cirneco dell’Etna<\/strong> Iosono Cirneco dell’Etna & Italian Greyhound Cirneco dell’Etnas since 1997 & Italian Greyhound since 1999 We are daughter Inka Forss and mother Erja Luomanm\u00e4ki from Helsinki, Finland.
