Additional Details:

Champ originally raced at Wheeling Downs, Tampa and then Derby Lane in Florida. He was pretty good getting up to A level in his 68 races. He retired in March of 2008 and was originally placed by another adoption group in the area. His family was unable to keep him because they had a baby. Champ was very stressed by the new baby crying. Champ is an older guy that just turned 10 on October 9th so qualifies for a reduced adoption fee of $200. His former family has kept him up to date on all his shots and vetting. Champ is a sweet guy that is very good in the house and is very laid back. He does still play sometimes but for the most part he is a couch potato. His foster dad says he is a joy to have around and is so sweet and loving. He is very friendly and will stand next to you as long as you will pet him. He is quiet but does bark sometimes when the doorbell rings so probably wouldn't be a good apartment dog. Champ has been excellent with the other greyhounds in his foster home. He did react poorly to a small dog in a previous home once in awhile so would do better in a home with other large dogs only. His sire is the famous Gable Dodge and his dam is Darragh. His littermate, Afleet Alex, is a very famous dog that was an All America winner in 2007 and now is a very famous stud dog.

Champ suddenly got sick while in foster care. He was rushed to our vet who diagnosed him with advanced cancer. There was nothing that could be done to fix his pain other than help him cross the bridge. He was adopted by his foster dad in memorial.
