All of our Lagotti live in the house with us. Yes, they even sleep with us. They are amazing dogs, so incredibly different from any other breed we have ever owned. Our dogs are very laid back and easy going. They thrive when they are given lots of mental stimulation. We do nose work, play hide & seek, play ball, go for drives and walks, they play with doggie puzzles and treat balls. They even watch DogTV! We try to make their lives as interesting as possible and, in return, we get to share our lives and our love with them; truly heaven on earth!
