Roxie is now an only Whippet, and her lure coursing career is over, abruptly cut off by the discovery that she has a disorder that prevents her muscles from dissipating heat. After 13 days of competing, she was just 50 points short of her Lure Courser of Merit title. We had to quit, but fortunately Roxie can still enjoy chasing the frisbee in very cool weather if I carefully monitor her actions. She was the best lure courser I have ever owned or enjoyed seeing on the field. She is now the perfect model as you can see here. We are actively looking for a doggy friend for her to play with. She can still run and play and do lots of things, but extreme excitement and lengthy runs are a thing of the past. Her she is, looking like Greta Garbo, on a chair of her selection.
