Additional Details:

Dezzie was not actually placed through our group, but one of our volunteers owned her as a racer from the time she was a tiny pup. She only raced 12 races and only won one of those. Dezzie normally came in toward the back of the pack. She raced at Palm Beach and Sanford Orlando. When she retired she was sent up to her racing owner in NC to be her pet. Dezzie's sire was the famous Kiowa Mon Manny and her dam was Skiddy Belle. She was born on June 27th of 2014. She was a happy friendly girl that made an impact on everyone she met. In June of 2018 she was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease that paralyzed her overnight. She was in ICU for 10 days and spent months recovering. She was a fighter and bounced back. You would never have known she was sick and her family called her their "Miracle Girl". She did have to continue taking meds to keep it under control but they stopped working in May of 2019 and she had a flare up that she couldn't recover from. She passed away on May 28th 2019 just shy of her 5th birthday. Her family says the house is so empty without her.
