Guest NSGREY Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 (edited) Thanks for the link!! I looked through it and from what I can understand she won about 8 races! I know she broke her leg at some point that's why(I think?) she's no longer racing but it's nice to see she had been a shining star at some point! course I would love her no less if she had been a racing dropout now if anyone can answer for me...what does it mean the star next to the names like her parents and some of her other ancestors? Oh and she's currently "roaching" in her crate!!! how exciting!

Guest greycious_gal Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Roaching in the crate is a good start. I don't know of a roach taking place if a dog doesn't feel safe/comfortable. So, that's a good sign. As to the cat, I'd recommend getting really good advice about Adora on that one. Cat intros and training needs to be done just right. Some are afraid of cats. Some are disinterested altogether. Some are trainable/workable. Our female had a HUGE prey drive. We've worked her to the point of living with a chihuahua that is white now. No problems. So, even those that don't seem workable can be at times. Just get a lot of help early on and do this one part really right. Can't wait to see more pics. . .and read stories. . .and see the pics of your next one. . . * = non-U.S. dog (often Irish dogs) like Fortress and a few other famous racers.
