Nigel
« on: January 09, 2012, 04:58:17 pm »
Nigel is a 6 year old male who came to us after his owner made a cross-country move and could not take him along.  He has done very well in the UKC show ring and also has scored a few points on the ASFA field.  He has a very strong prey drive and would do best in an active home.  He prefers larger dogs so we are looking to find a home with a bigger buddy or a place where he can be an only dog.  He is being fostered in Ft Pierce, FL.

Nigel has been here nearly three weeks now and he has been nuetered, microchipped, fully vetted and all set to go.

He'll be leaving this weekend and I will miss him.  He has come to school with me everyday so he wouldn't have to be crated and so we've bonded a bit. 

Good luck Nigel!

I guess if he's leaving this weekend that means that he has a new home? He sure has an adoring look in his eyes. I can see why you will miss him.

He does.  He is being adopted by a family who live 30-40 miles from us but we see on any weekend at the marina.

They saw us with our boating whippets and fell in love.  Whippets do very well around the water.

Hey, that's great that you'll still be able to see him, and he will still get to go boating!
