"Bonnie"

Picture
DOB: 3/30/2019
Pedigree
Breeder: Audrey Hsia​

Bonnie is my keeper puppy from my very first litter of Greyhounds, out of Dagny. Her sire, Seymor, was an American racing Greyhound that I greatly admired for his longevity, durability, and racing prowess. The litter was small (only two puppies), so Bonnie has been rather spoiled right from the start. She has all the spunk and bossy nature of her mother, but she's also very playful and affectionate towards those she considers friends and family.

As of this writing, Bonnie has just turn 1.5 years of age and is just starting to get her feet wet in amateur sports. She has run in four LGRA meets and is quite keen on the lure. I am very pleased with her progress so far and look forward to seeing how she continues to develop as she matures.

Before she ever went racing, Bonnie was a quick study on hare coursing. She ran her first jackrabbit at the tender age of 6 months and has been involved in several successful catches in her short life. She seems to have the exact combination of speed and endurance that I was hoping to achieve with this breeding, and she should continue to improve over time.

Bonnie also dabbles in nosework (an activity that we picked up during the COVID lockdown), and has shown considerable aptitude for it in spite of having me as her handler. We are certainly not trial-ready, but perhaps it might be something to consider in the future.
