Guest cassie19 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I'm Cassie & I've been reading the forums for a few weeks and have decided to introduce ourselves. My girlfriend & I just adopted our grey, Kiwa (key-wa), in September and she has been nothing but wonderful. We were completely new to the breed so I turned to GreyTalk. I love reading about everyone else's greys and seeing pictures! Kiwa is 2 years old, was a racer, didn't do so well and was shipped off to the humane society. Her racing name was Granny's Hooch and they renamed her Patti at the HS. She never answered to either so we picked a new one. She's doing great in new forever home. Last week, we noticed she started answering to her name. We're in an apartment right now and can't wait for the day when we have enough room to get Kiwa a brother or sister.

Ed.: Why can't I find her on Greyhound-Data? Yes! We love when she does it, so cute! lol I've tried looking her up on Greyhound-Data and haven't been able to find her, for whatever reason. I did find her information at trackinfo.com though. Her ear marks are 78A-47618. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dee Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I got Micah when the track in Rhode Island closed and we can't find anything on him. He's got his ear tattoos but he came with no racing name and I was told that he was probably never registered even though he was tattood. It was an issue of time. We think that since we got him when he was just two yrs. old it was probably time to register him just about the time the track closed. Anyone have any clues as to how I might be able to find out more info on my boy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any clues as to how I might be able to find out more info on my boy? Kiwa is similar. She was only 2 when she left the track also. I found her information at Trackinfo.com. If you go to the greyhound section, they have a dog lookup feature where you can just input her ear markings. Here ya go http://www.trackinfo.com/dog.jsp?runnername=GRANNYS%20HOOCH Thank you for looking that up but this is the only information I had found already.

Guest TBSFlame Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 She is really a beauty. Congratulations and welcome. Adopting a 2 year old you are not going to find much about them. They didn't do well as a racer but will make a wonderful companion. Look up their sire and dam to find who they are related to. Anyone with clearance can add you dogs in the database.
