About Me

Hi everyone! I'm Abe! I was born on 7/23/03. I am a retired racing greyhound. My racing name is Quirky Abraham. My last race was on October 6, 2007. I raced in 138 races in Wichita Kansas between March of 2005 to October of 2007. I even hold a track record. I raced a 302m race in 17.54 seconds back on October 2, 2005.
But now I'm retired and sleeping in a very comfy bed in my forever home. It's nice to be able to relax and just chill out. The bed is really fluffy and I like it a lot!!! I go to dog park every week to run with other cool greyhound friends. Although I never run. I spend my time sniffing, peeing and pooping and of course going up to everyone for rubs. My runnin days are over and I take my retirement very seriously...
I enjoy collecting things. I take my skin sisters slippers and toys, pillows, stuffed animals... heck even bananas. I just lay it all in my bed and sleep with it. It makes me feel good to have all this stuff with me.
It's pretty cold here sometimes. I had to get a coat so I can go outside. You see, greyhounds have a very small amount of body fat so we get cold really easy and some say we are big babies. I'm not a baby but I like my coat on. Plus I look rather handsome in it if I do say so myself. Go take a look at my pictures and you can see for yourself.
I'm a nice quiet guy... happy to have some rubs and lovin. My family is nice and they take good care of me.

I would love to meet other retired greyhounds that are relaxing in their new homes. If you want to see more about me, go to www.greyhound-data.com and do a dog search for Quirky Abraham. That is my racing name.
