Additional Details:

Cobalt is a friendly, dark brindle male with a black face. He raced at 71lbs and just celebrated his 2nd birthday on May 21st. His sire is Fuzzy's Cannon and his Dam is Greys Redington. He just retired from Sanford Orlando Race Track but also raced some of his 36 races at Sarasota. He won just one race but he did place some. His trainer said he was calm and well behaved at the track. He was a quiet boy that never caused any trouble. Just a very nice guy. His trainer felt he would be good for a first time foster home that we needed a dog for. He passed his cat test at the track and is living in a foster home with a cat. His foster home says he has been great and is indeed a well behaved guy. He potties on a leash and is doing well with their male greyhound. He is quiet in his kennel and is living in a townhouse so might be perfect for townhouse or apartment living.

Unfortunately Cobalt was sick when he came to us with a tick disease which quickly got worse with the stress of the move and his neuter. By the time we realized he was sick he was already in a crisis situation and was bleeding internally. Sadly the expert care he received from several vets was not enough to correct his issues, and he Crossed the Bridge on 7.9.13. Our condolences go out to everyone that knew him prior to adoption, as well as the volunteers of GC and the staff of Chinquapin Animal Hospital. We are thankful for the excellent care you gave him during the short fight. He was the first foster for Shannon and Erin Haynes of Greenville, SC, who will be doing a Memorial Adoption right away so that he will always have a home and loving family. RIP Cobalt, we grew to love you very quickly and wish you had more time to enjoy retirement with us.
