Count "Shannon Evening" (AKA PAXX) in.

She raced at Plainfield. Dam Oshkosh Quake, Sire Nastar Racer- I know she had sisters and one brother. She didn't run long, but no luck about her siblings. I am trying to find out if all her siblings were adopted and where.

PAXX lives in Rockaway, NJ.

My check is in the mail. Thanks Rockinship, you are greyt.

My $20 is on its way as well... and you've already told me so much about Kelso that you can skip him! (I wish I knew WHERE he was born...how do you find that out?)

 

You ROCKingship... :lol

 

(I'm going to meet Penny on 6/7 at the GRR Picnic in Bethel CT...I'm looking forward to it.)

The check, as they say, is in the mail!!!

 

How about Chata Beatrice, ten year old former racer and brood mom? We'd love to get some info on her!!

 

Thanks!

God bless you for doing this. I have spend hours trying to find where they came from. I have a lot of info including their registration and owners. So many people on GT seem to know the breeders and where they raced. I find that amazing.

 

This is so progrey. It gives meaning to everything that you have talked with regard to the integrity of the breed and how racing greys is something that must be continued.

Thank you so much Rockingship, for the data on my hounds! I guess me renaming Finn (a fine Irish name), before I even knew his background, was Fate!

Check on it's way. I will only ask about two of mine, since they are related, having the same dam.

Greyhound angels at the bridge- Casey, Charlie, Maggie, Molly, Renie, Lucy & Teddy. Beagle angels Peanut and Charlie. And to all the 4 legged Bridge souls who have touched my heart, thank you. When a greyhound looks into you eyes it seems they touch your very soul.

Hi Greytalkers....thanks for standing up and getting behind the greyhounds in Connecticut.

 

Simone...God has already blessed me in so many ways, not the least of which, was with my years spent in the company of thousands of greyhounds and the great people I have encountered in all my work with them.... he must be getting sick of blessing me by now....

 

Salemgrey....I am having some difficulty locating any info on Kiowa Whipper....there is a Kiowa Whisper in the database.....could there be some mixup?

 

Meanwhile, gang, I'm working as hard as I can to respond as quickly as possible, in the order they are posted here. If I have missed anyone, please advise me, below....

 

...and keep em coming, we've still got some dough to raise.....

 

You guys have been great....

 

Hey Penny.....I'll be working on pedigree reports next Sunday....wanna stop over? :lol:lol:lol

That was what was on her adoption papers.

I have her tatoos (well, she has them :lol) so I can call the NGA next week and ask them if that is the correct Dam.

Tory N Us......I'm having a terrible problem getting any information on Dobie ( JD's Landmark Love)....not on the database, not in any of my personal records....do you have any pedigree info on Dobie at all?

 

Salemgrey.....the NGA has all this info, and it would indeed be nice if they cooperated with all Greytalkers who are so graciously participating in this fund-raising effort, by declining the normal charges for pedigree info. It would be great if you could find out whatever you can from them.....some of these lines are obscure branches, and they need to be connected to their taproots, before we can fully understand them.

Great job, Rock!! Loved the history of Chance and Seamus' family. I decided you deserved a tip for being so thorough and quick, so I sent a little extra to Penny in Bridgeport!!! :)

Rockingship,

What a GREYT thing to do for us, and for such a greyt cause.

 

My check for $20 is in the mail this week - I just got paid!!!

 

Here's Daisy's info, and little bit of what I've learned about her parents...

 

Racing Name: Island Daisy

 

Sire: Bee Lite

 

Dam: No Fruits (there is nothing on Daisy's mom, not even her year of birth)

 

Daisy's Pedigree

 

I've learned a little bit about Daisy. Her owner was James Knowles, who has a greyhound farm in Alabama. As far as I can learn, she schooled at Seabrook, and then was transferred to Hinesdale where she raced up until early Nov. 2002. Her sister, Island Blossom raced at Hinesdale up through Jan. 2003, but I've not found anything else on her. I was hoping to learn if she had been up for adoption or adopted out. The not knowing is troubling.

 

I did a little bit of Internet searching about Daisy's parents, and found someone who knew her father Bee Lite! She saw him win a big race (referenced below). Here's part of this woman's email reply to me...

 

When I started working at the Woodlands a friend and I would go visit a few race kennels on Tuesday nights. (Milkbones and Love :-) )Thunderbird Kennel had Oshkosh Waldo and the Beckner Kennel had Bee Lite. When they raced together in the finals of the Great American Greyhound Futurity it was so awesome. They were both great dogs and because we had gotten to know them personally it made it even more special. The year after that race, I began working for Thunderbird Kennel.

 

Bee Lite was a beautiful dog! He was sweet and gentle, always wanting attention. He always found lots of people ready to accommodate him! I hoped to be able to find a program that had Bee Lite racing to send you , but haven't found one yet. If I do I'll be sure to email you.

 

Thanks so much, Rockingship! This is a tremendous gift, and there's no hesitation to help CT out.

Mom to Daisy (1999-2012), LB (aka Little Bit), and Sammy James (aka Sammy or Buddy)

My Doc is from Plainfield, CT too. He also only ran in 2 races. He came in last and second to last. Oh well. I will send $10 to Karen ASAP. His race name was Fran's Doc Lille.
