Dam progeny

GET/v1/dams/{dam_id}/progeny

Available on Live Live Plus

Every recorded offspring of a dam with each dog's career aggregates, mirroring the sire progeny endpoint.

Authenticate with your key in the X-API-Key header, or ?key= if your tool cannot set one — see Authentication. Works with sandbox keys inside the sandbox data window.

Parameters

NameInTypeRequiredDescription
dam_id path integer yes The dam identifier, the dam_id on every row of Dams. Every spelling on record of that dam counts as one.
cursor query string no Opaque pagination cursor from the previous response's meta.next_cursor.
limit query integer no Page size, 1–200. Defaults to 50.

Browser code exposes whatever key it ships with — use a sandbox key for prototypes and proxy live keys through your own server in production.

import requests

r = requests.get(
    "https://api.greyhoundapi.com/v1/dams/1424708384/progeny",

body = r.json()
print(body["meta"]["data_as_of"], body["data"])

Notes

Australian dogs carry no sire or dam on record, so no Australian runner appears here. Irish dogs appear only where their breeding has been recorded: every dog racing in 2026, and a smaller share each year before that. For how the offspring perform, see Dam statistics.
