Finley raced at Derby Lane until May of 2020. He raced 30 races at the lowest D level and only managed to win 2 races, so was retired young. He was initially in a home until his first owner passed away. He has been in another adoptive home since 2021. We have been asked to help rehome him because they can no longer care for him. He has lived in his former home with a female greyhound, but we have been told he doesn't do well with other male dogs. So he will need a home with no other dogs or only female dogs. Finley is the son of the famous Flying Hydrogen and his dam is Backwood Geewhiz. He raced at 77 lbs and his birthday is April 28th of 2018 so he is 6.5 years old. He is good with small female dogs, cats and kids. More as we get to know him

My Rag Doll
Racing Name:
My Rag Doll
Pet/Kennel Name:
Pumpkin (Rag Doll)
Age:
8
Color/Gender:
Brindle Female
Cat Tolerance:
Yes
Small Dog Tolerance:
Yes
Good w/ Children:
Yes
Fostered by (location):
McManis (Easley, SC)
Adoption Status: Adopted by the Marshall family of Simpsonville, SC 6.5.23

Rag Doll initially came in from the Sanford Orlando Race Track in June of 2019. She is a tiny girl that raced at 60lbs and raced 72 races. She started out racing at Mardi Gras briefly then was moved to Sanford Orlando to race. She was pretty good, getting up to A level for part of her career. She started slowing down, so was retired. Her sire is Kelsos Bogman and her dam is Valeri Deer. Rag Doll turned 8 on May 2nd. She is a very calm girl that passed her cat test easily with no interest in them. She was also fine with the small dog she met. She is quiet in her kennel and pretty good on leash too. She liked the kids she met. She is just a little overwhelmed by everything new but doesn't really seem to be shy and will go up to people for attention. Rag Doll had to have 11 teeth taken out at the vet so will need to have good dental care and maintenance to save the rest of her teeth. She is able to eat just fine with the her remaining teeth. Rag Doll was adopted in June of 2019 and renamed Pumpkin.   UPDATE!    Pumpkin is a very special little girl to GC, with a special story.  Her personality takes her a bit to warm up in new situations, and the stress of being moved can make life very stressful for her initially.  She expresses this by being what we might gently call a little Drama Queen.  Once she relaxes, however, it's clear that she loves her humans and just has a quirky personality.  This little sweetheart is currently on a short medical hold to sort out some tummy issues and settle into her foster home, but we are happy to discuss possible adoption while that happens.  Contact us to hear more about her unique story and what she needs for a comfortable home in retirement.  Qualifies for Special Adoption status!
