Additional Details:

Hailee just arrived from the Xtrem Hess Racing Kennel at the Wheeling WV race track with her brother Kayjay Nicky P. She only raced 5 races there and came in toward the back of the pack in every one of them. She was retired young and won't even turn 2 until December 27th. Her sire is Superior Panama and her dam is Flying Supervolt. Hailee raced at 62lbs and is a natural sitter. A sit isn't that comfortable for most greyhounds because of the way they are built, but she will sit in her crate frequently. Hailee was pretty shy and overwhelmed with all the changes in her life at first. Her brother is also pretty shy so it seems to be genetic shyness that runs in some families of greyhounds. She seems like she wants to interact with people, wagging and dancing around you getting her courage up to approach. She definitely prefers women over men and is more timid and likely to bolt away if approached by a man. Her foster family has been leash walking her to potty in their fenced yard and she does potty on leash nicely. She has been doing some whining in her kennel so probably wouldn't be a good choice for apartment living. Hailee will need a little time to warm up to her new family. She was initially very curious about small dogs she met, but after prolonged sniffing and figuring out what they were, she seems like she may be fine to live with them. She will just need a careful introduction with small dogs that look like squirrels or bunnies. She has not been cat tested yet. She as vetted at Emerald City Vet Clinic on November 4th. While she was at the vet they said she was leaping up in the dog runs nearly to the top so she will need to have a yard with a 5 foot fence or a family without a fenced yard that will leash walk her to potty. This is a sweet cute little girl with a lot of personality waiting to blossom for the right family.
