Bunnygetter's Mouse On Speed JC, TDI, CGC, TT

Olivia is the carbon copy of her dam, Abby. She had a promising start in coursing, winning points her first time out, but a coursing accident that weekend put an end to her coursing career. But she found other ways to enjoy life, as a therapy dog for Therapy Dogs International.  Over the years she visited hundreds of patients at area nursing homes. Along with her sire Reggie, her Uncle Nigel, and her nephew Rioghan, they became a hit each Christmas eve when the whippets donned Reindeer antlers to pull a wagon thru the nursing home, delivering gifts to each patient. Olivia continued her therapy work visiting homebound patients until age 13, when health issues of her own forced her into retirement.
