K'LAR AWARD 2006 & 2007
Italian Greyhound
Snoopy-J
Count Snoopy von Edison SGRC4
(Jones)
Snoopy turned 4 years old in September. He had an amazing year, earning his SGRC2, SGRC3, and SGRC4 all in 2006.
Snoopy joined
our household at the age of 3 months. We realized at a very early
age that he loved to run.
Since we
lived in an apartment, there really wasn’t anywhere for him to run free,
so we started taking him to dog parks.
At the age
of 9 months, Snoopy was running around a dog park with a pack of small
dogs
when a
Mastiff came all the way across the park and attacked Snoopy, putting him
in a death grip.
My husband
actually reached inside the Mastiff’s mouth and pried him off of Snoopy.
The big
dog kept attacking, so my husband had to hold Snoopy over a fence until
the Mastiff could be restrained.
Snoopy
required stitches in his leg, hip, neck, shoulder, and his mouth.
He was lucky to be alive.
After
that experience, no more dog parks! We needed somewhere for Snoopy
to run.
That’s
when I found out about LGRA. It was the answer I had been searching
for.
From the
first time Snoopy saw the lure, he was crazy for it.
He ran
his first race in November of 2003, his only race for the year.
He resumed
racing in 2004, and Snoopy finished that year in the #12 all-breed spot.
In 2005,
he finished as the #4 all breed. In 2006, #1.
Besides LGRA, Snoopy’s other interests are playdates, sleeping, cuddling, counter surfing, and trashcan diving.
