Ive always had a high opinion of John Rohan who is in trafalgar. Ive only ever used him for re-breaking and box work but they have always come back a lot better than when they left. Ph: 0418 147 411.

I have booked my pup into a breaker now who came highly recommended and as a very good rep. His name is Grant something i forgot his last name but he is in ballarat. He is also relatively cheap compared to most at around $60 a week. I would post his number but im not sure if its permitted. Im sure if you ask around you might find his last name.

Hello all.
This is my first post, so I hope I do it right.

In July of this year 2008 I purchased a greyhound from a fellow in the Leeton (NSW) area. The dog has had 12 starts for 1 win and 4 placings when I got him. He was broken down in 7 places with his hip being the worsed affected. After 6 weeks on the leed I slipped him up the straight at Appin 274mtrs. He pulled up ok. 5 days later I trialed him at the same place and distance and he ran 16.5. Again he pulled up ok.
10 days later I trialed him at Glengarry over the 400 and he ran 24.35.
9 days later I raced him at Richmond over the 400 and he finished 5th in 23.30 beaten 6lths. Another 9 days later he raced at Bulli over 515 and he finished 4th in 29.35 beaten 2 lths.
Now here is my questions.
1. Am I running him too much? ( He has been off the lead 9 times since I've had him.)
2. Are those times at those tracks any good?

He is nearly 3 years old.
He weighs 32.5 klg.
I exersise him 20 minutes walking twice a day.

I would appreciate some advise.

Thankyou
