Sequoia's dad still posts infrequently on GT and I've been following their story. Apparently, he's moved from So Cal to FL to work for a greyhound breeder/trainer. Actually, I don't think the breeder personally trains the dogs, but I do know she does a thing called "preadoption".

I know the Golden breeder you're talking about, although her name escapes me, ARGH. I think her username was LuvGold00.
