They are depicted in Renaissance art and in writings; even mentioned by Aristotle. 

Their bright, joyful temperaments made them a favorite of the Royal household.

As the popularity and power of the aristocracy began to diminish, this breed began

to wane.  It was saved from near extinction by a small group of enthusiasts.  In Italy,

France, and Holland, breeders have been working hard to restore the breed during the last couple of decades.
