A little while back we asked for pictures of your dogs. These were at both ends of the spectrum, prior to racing and with their paws up in retirement. Anything we can do to show what great pets they are has to be a positive and we look forward to receiving more in the future!

Ballymac Cashout – Lively Dee from Joe Andrews

Dee is a half-sister to Swords Rex. These pups are being reared at Adachi Kennels by Patrick and Jade Browne

Top British breeder Phil Milner sent in a great stash of shots.

The young pups are Droopys Addition – Nah Then Bella.

In the middle is Tarsna Bo.

The saplings lower down are Magical Bale – Kirabilly Kathy, they are 10.5 months old and owned by Jim Hayton and Dave Ambler. Jim, as Phil rightly says, is a legend of the sport so we look forward to seeing these on the track.

Droopys Sydney – Singalong Sally from Liam Aspin

Not going to find breeding as good as this very often. To be named Kick On Archie so he is one to look out for in 2025.

Jeff Watson sent these in

Jeff has spent more than 40 years in the sport, breeding Amka Rofe who would prove to be very smart. He has been crossed with Airmount Sarah with their pups now 12 months old and in Ireland. We wish Jeff all the best with the litter.

Road Rage at home with owner Kaitlin Petch

You can’t get a better advert for greyhounds as great pets than this ex-racer.

Vince The Prince – Viv McLaughlin

Vince had his 100th race on July 10 and was retired. Safe to say he’s settled in very well at home!

Buy them a comfortable bed…

A huge thank you to everyone who sent in pictures. Keep them coming and we will make these a feature a few times a year.
