IGB breeder initiative meets with approval
The most positive reaction from those people I spoke to was in relation to the €15 to the breeder for each winner in Ireland. It wasn’t universally welcomed as it will bypass many, but I spoke to a few people who felt it would provide a positive and welcome return, while others were already beginning to tot up the winners in anticipation of an improved pay-day.
As so many greyhounds are sold to race in Britain and so many breeders have depended upon that link for many years, it won’t positively affect them unless their sales channels change.
