You may have to go to Rome to find your next Greyhound! Rome, aka Slatex Rome, is a 3-year-old red male born July 1, 2011. His sire is Flying Hydrogen and his dam is Slatex Isabell. Rome has 101 races on record with Greyhound-data.com, all at Gulf Greyhound Park. He started his career in April 2013, and it ended with a fall on November 28, 2014. Rome had no control over his back legs after the fall, but after a steroid shot and a night's rest was back on his feet. He was evaluated by GALT's veterinarians, and appears to have no lasting damage from the fall. 

We have only had Rome for a short while, but so far he is wonderful. He is very timid and shy at first, which you can't blame him for. He stopped racing 2 weeks before he came to our house, so everything is new and different. If you want a shadow, then Rome is the dog for you. He will follow you around from room to room and he loves to be where you are. He really seems to want a snuggle partner, whether other dog or person it doesn't seem to matter. He alert, but very well behaved on walks. He has very dark eyebrows which makes his eyes very expressive.
