Synopsis
By the Millenium, Linda Jones was a household name in greyhound racing with her own column in a national newspaper, and for the next two years she was the leading UK trainer. Now, for the first time, Linda tells the story of her life in greyhounds, highlighting the people - and the dogs - that have been behind her success. First and last she pays tribute to the greyhounds: 'You're not in this game for the money or the glory,' she says: 'You do it because you love the dogs...'

Customer Reviews

talking greyhounds
Having been lucky enough to get a copy signed by Linda Jones i must say this book was a good read and brought back memories of some great dogs she trained in the past . Although it will only take you a couple of days to read there are some great pictures of this noble breed and Lindas story proves you can triumph against all odds . If you want an insight into the world of a profesional greyhound trainer then this book will provide you with a small glimpse . recommended

Talking Greyhounds
I have never been involved in greyhound racing but I have 3 retired racing greyhounds at home. I also work as a volunteer with retired racing greyhounds helping to find them homes and looking after them in the interim. I wanted to understand their life before they came to us. I enjoyed the book and found it very informative.

a really great read for the greyhound lover
i brough this book for my daughter who is really into the greyhounds she had said this is a really good book though i was not even born when she was training a lot of winners but i brought this book for her becuase it proves that women are as good as the men and the main fact was that she is passonaite about the dogs and not the prize money
any one whose into greyhounds needs to read this book
