- Breed: Whippet/Beagle Mix
- Physical Description: Medium size, short hair, brown and white, muscular.

- Animal History: We adopted her a year ago. She had been in a home with children and other dogs, so she is good with them. Don't know about cats, but guessing it would not be a good mix. We love her dearly and have worked with her for a year, but she is simply too active for us with no children or other dogs at home to help keep her busy. She will be a great dog for the right family.
