Additional Details:

Rita came in from the Bolton Racing Kennel at the Sanford Orlando Race Track. Rita raced most of her 156 races at the Orlando track and we met her there on a visit to her kennel when she was still racing. We fell in love with her and have been waiting on her to retire. Rita also raced at Derby Lane. She raced a lot of her career at the top A level and even raced in one stakes race. Rita raced at 63lbs and is a beautiful red girl. Her sire is Surf Lorian and her dam is PJ Never Ask Why. Rita turned 4 on July 20th. Rita was pretty overwhelmed at first and nervous away from her trainers and the kennel she was used to. She has quickly regained her confidence and starting to get back to the friendly, goofy, girl that we met at the kennel. She was too nervous at first to be interested in the cats in her foster home. As she has gotten more confident she is paying more attention to their cats, so we have changed her from OK with cats to needs a home with no cats. She is doing great in foster care. She was noisy in her kennel the first night but has been pretty quiet since.
