Author: Sir Timestamp:- 25/11/2007 6:08:02 PM Subject: Buying and racing a dish licker!
Message: Fellow posters,
Was brainstorming with Maam about Xmas gifts and considered a greyhound for the household to invest in.
Would greatly appreciate if anyone had any thoughts/experience that they can share on this site.
Looking to keep expenses reasonable, and am not looking to find the next winner of the Easter Egg (I think that's a big race)
Will not be able to kennel/look after dog hence need the trainer to manage all aspects.
Appreciate thoughts/suggestions - or ideas where else to look.
Thanks in advance
PS - have owned horses - but can't afford them anymore - and understand that dogs are trained differently (eg - split prizemoney with trainer 50/50 - but have no running costs)
PPS - my preference is to find a trainer in the Bendigo, VIC region.

Message: This is a whole new direction for me to take, but i am very keen to get interested in ownership of a greyhound.
I admit my knowledge is limited to this sport, but the outlay for a well bred pup is nothing when compared to current prices for yearlings. So if anyone is interested in forming a partnership, please let me know.
At this stage i am very open to how many people are willing to form ownership, where to race and who to train. For me, it will be hobby based and a bit of fun. or any ideas throw it at me.
Also, what are peoples thoughts on these dogs and the pups value - brett lee x black fantasy @ $10000.00
