My Laddie

Inducted into the greyhound hall of fame in 1965. My Laddie's sire Traffic Officer is also in the greyhound hall of fame, as well as offspring Rural Rube and Fern Nature. My Laddie is one of only two greyhounds that have sired 2 hall of famers. Laddie captured the $10,000 Baden Stake Championship Sweepstake while setting a world record for the 5/16th's of a mile. He was clearly one of the best greyhounds (if not THE best) of that period, paving the way for one of the more famous stud careers in the sport's history.
