Additional Details:

Ace is a retired stud dog that has 49 offspring listed so far and more on the way. He was a very successful racer at one of the top tracks in the country before he retired, racing at Southland in Arkansas. Ace was a 2011 Derby Lane Distance Classic Finalist. He had the season's best race time at Derby Lane for the 3/8ths distance. He WON 43 of his 152 races. Ace was a star and one of the top racers in the country. We feel honored to help such a huge star find a home. His sire is Kelsos Fusileer and his dam is Kelsos Picilino. Ace is a mid sized guy that raced at 75lbs and came in at about 79lbs. He is very mellow and loves to be loved on. Very laid back and very calm. Ace responds well to corrections and is doing really well in his foster home. He gets along well with other dogs and even some goats on the farm. He doesn't seem to have any signs of separation anxiety so may make a good only greyhound. Although he was a great racer he doesn't seem to have much prey drive towards any type of animal and has no interest in chasing cats or other farm animals. He walks perfectly on leash and doesn't even try to bolt after squirrels or birds. He hasn't made any noise at all in his foster home so she thinks he might do well in an apartment.
