Victorian greyhound racing has always provided some of the very best greyhound racing events in the country.

As mentioned, the Victorian Greyhounds are run by Greyhound Racing Victoria or the GRV. Across the state Greyhound Racing Victoria host more than 800 events split between the 13 dog tracks. These events create a total of more than $20 million dollars in prize money for owners and trainers every year. This mass of investment has made the Victorian Greyhounds a crucial aspect of the overall Victorian economy as an employer of thousands of people state wide.
In addition to on track dog racing, Greyhound Racing Victoria places a large emphasis on training, development and care for both trainers and dogs off track as well. This means a continued focus on research into training and husbandry techniques to support the greyhounds throughout their racing career. Further to this, Greyhound Racing Victoria was one of the first to implement plans to better take care of dogs after retirement.
As a result the Greyhound Adoption Program means Victorian Greyhounds will be placed into family homes to live out their lives as pets once they are no longer able to compete.
The vast array of top quality tracks and sensible ethical operations make the Victorian Greyhounds a genuine option for both professional and mid-week punters.
