Runs completed, Kennels arrived.

The Runs have now been completed and are all secure with the gates completed. The indoor kennels have arrived and will be placed in the shed in the next few weeks. On the racing front Feral Fox (George)ran a third place at Ascot Park Southland on Tuesday which was great to see.

New runs and kennels nearly finished

Runs and kennels almost ready. Gates to be put on and run kennels to be built. Four runs all up. Approx 50 x 20 meters. Almost set up for some serious rearing. All the runs have access the 8 acre field.

George (Feral Fox) gets his head in front!

Led from trap rise and got on the bunny straight away, looks like the fall last week never did him any harm and possibly knocked a bit of sense in to him..

Recent News

The move to a new place in Oxford went well but poor old Ridgy had to have a temporary kennel made from 4 Hay Bales and corrugated iron roofing!! Luckily a new Kennel has now been made so she is happy and enjoying the 2 acre field she gallops in daily with the other retirees!

Still need to do the new runs but eh Rome wasnt built in a day!

On the track George (Feral Fox)has come back from a rest/spell and is now showing some real pace and his last two efforts have resulted in a 3rd at Otago and a 2nd at Southland. Lets hope his next is a win!

The big Fellow Amigo has pleased Malcolm and showed him a bit of ability so he is now in cotton wool until further notice!

New Kennel number is 03 3106912

Feral Greyhound kennels have moved.

We are no longer situated on the West Coast and have now moved to Oxford in North Canterbury. We are now situated on a 4 hectare block and are in the process of building kennels. Hopefully the runs and kennels will be ready in the next couple of months. It was hard to leave the Coast and the especially the wild open beach which was such a great gallop for the pups.
Hopefully the move will mean more chance of racing a few once everything is complete or even rearing a few more!

The big lad chased the drag lure first time and was a natural so lets hope he now shows the pace required. He left weighing 38 kilos so he will be a heavy dog when racing!

Home address is now

The big boy's last gallop on the Coast

The Big lad goes back tomorrow to Malcolm Grants 'Supreme Kennels' to learn the ropes of racing. Hopefully he will take to it and show some pace and talent, lets hope so.

Amigo and Barney

Latching on to Barney after a gallop on the beach. It takes a long time to get Barney off him after he has latched on hard. Barney might be history in the early childhood circles but Amigo is his biggest fan.
