"This poignant picture of Feisty Lynn captures her beauty and soul. She ran 191 races at three different tracks, finishing her winning career in Wisconsin in early 2004 at 5 years old. It took over a year for her to warm up to the idea that she was now a pet. Today she is playful and loving, but maintains an air of the mysterious when it suits her. She's the alpha queen to Jester, my other greyhound rescue, and obviously is the brains of the duo. She is sleek and beautiful, track scarred but undamaged deep in that wonderful heart."
Rescue dogs do not need to be scarred from their past lives. Read Successfully Adopting a Rescue Dog.
