Great story. That's what it should be about, all this talk on prize money allocation etc etc.
Should be more feel good stories with retired dogs and more emphasis on life after racing..
Good work Richard!

Thanks Jeffery. We had one that was not suitable for GAP and she ended up living with a lovely vet's nurse and is now a regular K9 "blood donor" and has a great life of leasure as well. Its nice to get the regular updates on how they are traveling after leaving the track. Cheers Rich.

That's a GREAT story Richard, and you can bet she will go on to be a good ambassador so others will adopt Greys :-)
