Additional Details:

Blarney was called Scrappy at his racing kennel at Derby Lane. He raced 131 races there and was good getting up to the top A level. He was retired in August of 2009 and was initially sent to another group that is shutting down now. After having him in foster care for awhile they ask us for help fostering and placing him. Blarney is becoming a favorite of our foster home and is just an all around great guy. He has gotten along well with all the other dogs in his foster home. He loves toys and joyfully throws them around to play. He would probably be happiest in a home with slightly older children only because he sometimes jumps in surprise when touched from behind. This will probably go away as he becomes more comfortable in a new home. He is very gentle though and doesn't snap or growl even when surprised. Blarney has responded well to the cat in his foster home and completely ignores it now so should be fine living with cats or small dogs. His foster mom describes him as so sweet that families won't be able to help falling in love with him! And look at all that dark eyeliner on those expressive eyes! He can complain loudly in his crate so probably wouldn't be the best dog for apartment living. This is a sweet boy that will steal your heart.
