Our Empty Couch Has Been Graced


Recommended Posts

:wub:

 

We are thrilled to welcome to our couch Grace, aka Andicot, fresh from the Ryan Farm in Abilene, Ks and with Billy O'Donnell, sr's blessing. She arrived Friday July 1 at a gh farm in CT. I picked her up Sunday night and she has settled in great. She is very friendly and a very lively little girl. I think she will do well here. Harry likes her and she likes him, following him around to learn the ropes. No reaction to fireworks or thunder.

 

 

Grace is by WW Time Warp out of Kilhara.

and her racing career in a nut shell by Dick and the how your dog ran thread:

 

Andicot ran at Seabrook, Sarasota, Wonderland, Palm Beach and Victoryland. She had early speed and needed to be close to the front to have a chance to win. She could run a dog or two down to win or she could break on top and go box to wire.

 

Towards the end of her career she could only win from the front and at times could be caught, but, for a dog that ran over 160 races I think age just started to catch up to her.

Harry, Grace and I went on the trailbound hounds ( http://www.trailboundhounds.org/ ) walk this morning at Bay Farm in Duxbury. It is a lovely place, open fiels, mild inclnes, not hills but not flat either. It goes down to the ocean, a bay really, but anywho, Grace loved it, went right in and wanted to bounce around and play, spinning and just being a silly thing. Splashing all of us around her. So the Kansas dog likes the beach.

Congratulations to you Nancy!

 

She's a beauty. :wub: She has the best ears!

 

I'm glad that Harry has a new "sister". She'll liven up the place, that's for sure.
