Additional Details:
Missy came in initially from the Birmingham Race Course. She only raced one of her 49 races there though. She traveled around to quite a few tracks. Missy started out at Dubuque in IA, then went to Wheeling Downs in WV, Gulf in TX and Orange Park in FL then finally Birmingham AL. She did get up to A level once at Orange Park but just wasn't a really good racer. She moved around a lot looking for a place where she would be competitive. Missy turned 4 on November 28th and raced at 65lbs. Her sire is the famous KC and All and her dam is WW's Whiteclover. She was called Minnie at the track but has since been renamed Missy by her first family. She is a pretty timid girl that will need time to warm up. Missy seems to be little more shy with men than kids and females. She was initially fostered with a calm 8 year old child. Most timid dogs are terrified around very loud fast moving small kids, so she probably needs a home with quiet older kids or no kids. Missy travels well. She is excellent on leash and goes potty on leash walks, so may do OK without a fenced yard. Missy went to her first home in October of 2018. That family was elderly and both fell and had to go to the hospital and were not able to care for a dog anymore so asked us to find her a new home. She was placed in 2019 and was just returned from that home because she was too shy. She passed her cat and small dog tests so should be fine to live with either. Missy did great in an earlier foster home with several small dogs. Missy doesn't interact at all on the first meeting, so any potential families need to understand that. She was very well behaved in her foster home. She is just a shy girl that is not a social butterfly and needs an owner that will be understanding of that and give her the time she needs to warm up and not expect her to change dramatically.
