Greyhound trainer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A greyhound trainer is a person who trains greyhounds for racing.[1] This involves exercising, feeding, and grooming them, in addition to keeping the greyhound in race condition to enable the greyhound to race to the best of its ability.[2]
Before the 1930s, nearly all greyhound racing was in the form of coursing, but track racing was established in the United States in 1919 and in Great Britain in 1927.[3] Today, the term 'greyhound trainer' refers mainly to track racing, because coursing has been banned in many countries.
