Later this month, the GBGB is hosting a free trainer workshop with Dr. Teresa Hollands, Senior Lecturer in Veterinary Nutrition at the University of Surrey, to delve into the nutrition of racing greyhounds.
The session will concentrate on how we can ensure that all racing greyhounds are provided with the best diet at every stage of their careers.
The event is scheduled to take place at Nottingham Greyhound Stadium on 20th January 2024, between 11 am – 3 pm.
All licensed trainers and kennel hands are welcome to attend, and lunch will be provided. GBGB is pleased to collaborate with Time Greyhound Nutrition for this workshop, and attendees will receive a goodie bag from them on the day.
