Additional Details:

Starr just arrived from a farm in Kansas. She retired from racing in 2012 and had been on the farm since then with plans to have her be a mom. When her owner heard that she had a family interested in adopting her, he decided not to breed her and send her to us instead. Starr is a littermate to several dogs we have placed already and she is being adopted by one of the families that already has her sister. Star arrived at our big dog event Beach Bound Hounds and was fostered in a hotel room. She is a very outgoing, confident girl and took all the people and dogs at the event in stride. She is not afraid of anything and even did scary open stairs the first time she saw them and had no problem on the elevator in the hotel either. She loved the ocean and wasn't afraid of the waves. She does have a pretty high prey drive and was very interested in little dogs she saw, so probably wouldn't be able to live with cats or small dogs but hasn't been officially tested. Starr is a couch dog and the first thing she did was jump up on the couch and make herself comfortable. She loves to lay in your lap too and snuggle. She is not a small girl at 70lbs but don't tell her she is too big to be a lap dog. Her sire is Balligari and her dam is Elysium. She raced 41 races at Wheeling Downs, Derby Lane and Palm Beach. She will turn 5 on December 1st. She is the one in the middle in this picture of her with her brother and sister.
