UPDATE January 30, 2010  We ran Lena in a 10 dog team.  She is a nice running dog and has a beautiful lope.  She has good drive.  When she broke into a trot she crabbed a lot, but a half harness might solve that for her.  She is very very shy and would take a patient hand and lots of time for her to be comfortable with you.  She has not been socialized well at all but is a gentle and kind dog.  She is still spinning on her chain a lot but I think this is from being so stressed at the shelter and not used to people.  She is a young dog so could blossom with the right person.

Lena is a young (born April 2007) hound mix from good bloodlines.  She is VERY skittish.  I could barely get near this girl today.  She is constantly spinning on her chain and is just very scared to be at the shelter.  She will need a very gentle hand with patience to bring her around.  We will run her soon.  Lena is on house L.
