Italians are very fond of animals. Practically a home pet lives in every second family, and as a rule it is a dog. They are equal in rights family members, and sometimes even their bread-winners. Owners give the love and attention to them, pamper and dress in the latest fashion, lead in a barbershop and manicure. Often dogs look on new doggy fashions, sleep with the owners in one bed and eat from "one dish". In a word in Italy it is not simple "friend of family", and full-fledged member and "bread-winner".
In Piedmont a dog brings income for the owners, in that case if she trains for the search of truffles. There are the special schools and even "institutes" for dogs, where they pass educating to the search of fragrant underground mushroom. Trained dog can stands from a 20 000 euro. Usually use the breed of dogs of Lagotto Romagnolo, but often and simple dogs have sensitive sense of smell and search truffles also successfully as well as pedigree dogs.
