Additional Details:

Simon was born July 17th 2002 and raced at Jefferson County Kennel Club in 2004 and 2005. His sire was Flying Highball and his dam was Kiowa Day Shaw. We met him as a small puppy on the farm he was raised on in WV. He had been picked on by the other pups and was stitched up at the time. He was adopted in 2005 and was in a home for awhile but was returned to us due to some problems he was having with the other dogs in the home. He was in foster care for about 3 months to work on his behavior with other dogs and then was adopted by the Backus family. Simon was a model citizen after that. He could be around other dogs of all types and promoted greyhound adoption by going to meet and greets and doing parades. He loved everyone he met humans and canine. His family loved him dearly and he will be missed. He lost his battle with congestive heart failure on 6/30/12 just before his 10th birthday.
