In mark’s own words below:

I was basically a breeder, trainer, rearer and Stud-keeper. I didn’t start with huge sums of money or hundreds of acres of land, but built it up as I could. I stood Trendy léigh, brother of Brett Lee at stud, along with Toll Security and Elles Dominator. I was in the Midlands in Ireland, not the best area geographically to earn a living from greyhounds as Munster and the counties of Cork, Limerick, Kerry, Tipperary and Kilkenny tend to be the best areas to be located. But I persevered and made it work, really for as long as I wanted to. I broke the track record for 600 yards on the old grass track in Mullingar that had stood for 34 years. The dog was later sold and was later hot favourite for the TV trophy in UK, but found trouble in the final. This dog’s name was Long Island Lad and he was a very fast dog that had been poorly owner trained before he came to me.

He wasn’t the fastest dog I trained though, but was very genuine if not the cleverest of trackers.

I always had more interest in breeding than training, but the two go hand in hand and to make a living in Ireland you need to do a bit of everything, breeding, rearing, schooling, training and of course racing. The racing on top of everything else was hard as you might not get back to the kennels afterwards until near midnight. Then the dog would have to be fed and I’d turn the adult dogs out to empty before heading home. Then it would all start again at 7 the next morning.

This book is my 100% honest account of over 20 years working with greyhounds. I don’t pull any punches and tell everything exactly as it happened and I saw it.I really hope you enjoy it.

Full of real-life stories of grit, determination, highs, lows and what the life of a greyhound breeder/trainer is really about. Buy My Time Greyhound Trainer Book Online for Sale from Dog trainers bible.
