About the Cirneco dell'Etna

A purebred from the beautiful island of Sicily, the Cirneco Dell’etna puppies are a sought-after dog breed, particularly due to its rarity outside the Italian region.

Pronounced “cheer-neck-oh del et-na”, it’s certainly a unique dog breed that’ll take some getting used to pronouncing when asked by strangers what type of dog you have. These gentle but alert pups are popular due to their personality and the ideal traits that most dog owners want from their pets.

This dog breed makes both a great pet and also a great show dog, for those looking at adopting or buying a dog for this very reason. Here’s everything that you need to know about caring for this dog breed.
