Here is Sonny with Daniel…this is just too cute!
Here is Sonny running after the coursing lure. He has tremendous speed, and the reason for that is shown below:
Although Sonny is his proper name, his nickname should be Thunder Thighs. Check out those hindquarters; they give him an extremely powerful push! There are horses that would love to have thighs like that!
Here is Sonny sporting his new red shoes!
Here is Sonny on his first lure coursing session.
This is the classic double extension gallop of the greyhound family, where in both the extension and the contraction stages all feet are off the ground. This gives Sonny his explosive sprinter’s speed!
Sonny Has An Agent!
Sonny, that handsome devil, is now represented by an agent and passed his obedience tests to be a model-TV dog! The agent was extremely impressed with Sonny’s poise and confidence.
Sonny, like his owner, Daniel, is also an athlete, He passed the qualification with NOTRA and did amazing in his first race. On his first heat he got first place; on his second heat he got second place and on the high-stakes final he also got second place, so he ended up getting second overall, which is amazing for a first time racer.
Looks like Sonny, aka Thunder Thighs, is doing quite well for himself! Major kudos to his owner, Daniel, for providing such a wonderful home and environment for Sonny to excel!
Here is Sonny with Seth Meyers in the April, 2014 Vogue Magazine spread. Sonny is very poised!
