Additional Details:

Data initially came in from the Jacksonville Fl Orange Park race track. He is a handsome black male that broke his leg in his last race on December 16th, 2016. His break didn't require surgery. His racing owners paid to have the vet splint and care for the leg in Florida. Once the leg was stabilized he was transported to Pro Greyhound for his rehab. They are a group that pays for surgical repairs and rehab of greyhounds with broken legs with your donations. If you would like to donate to help Pro Greyhound please click here. Data raced at 72lbs and will turn 3 on September 21st. His sire is WW Time Warp and his dam is Quirky Lucille. Data is a very friendly guy that is very social and sweet. He passed his cat and small dog tests so should be fine to live with either. Data was such a great dog that he was picked as a service dog candidate and was adopted by a lady wanting to train him to be her service dog. Unfortunately Data was so in tune with his owner, that he picked up on her anxiety and became anxious in the situations that made her anxious, so wasn't able to assist her. Data is a wonderful, well trained boy that should be a perfect pet even if he didn't work out as service dog. He is an easy going guy that isn't an anxious dog normally. He loves being with his humans and really connects with them. He likes to put his head in your lap to get ear rubs. He is very concerned about babies. He lived with two little boys and was very tolerant of the kids even if they crawled on his bed or bothered him when he was sleeping. If one of his babies cried he would not rest until he found them and made sure they were ok. He walks well on a leash and uses a dog door when he needs to go outside to potty. He loves meeting strangers and is friendly with many other breeds of dogs, even small ones. He has lived with cats and small dogs before.
