This past Saturday Kinetic and Enchanted Basenjis spent the day in Gilroy and Kirigin Cellars Winery participating in AKC Lure Coursing.

The weather was nice, warm but not too hot. The dogs enjoyed the day out and fun was had by all.

And watch out for Bella's half brother L'Ox. He had a short puppy run and he seems hooked.

Congrats!!! That's a pretty good basenji showing! So often Carrie and I bring ALL of the basenjis entered in this area so there's only like 3 running.
Lox is precious!

I love the expressions. Pure joy.

Many of the trials the entry is me, my mom, and then Della Sehm. Just with us 3 entering, it means anywhere from 7-11 entries depending on whether we enter all of our dogs. Bella won the majority of her points in AKC by going BOB over the Specials. Her first 2 trials she was the only Open but took BOB for 4 points the first day and then 3 points the next.

I hadn't heard of this event as I would liked to have attended.

Big congrats to the new champion, that is wonderful. We normally have between 2-4 dogs running in our area, takes a long time to finish in ASFA at 8 pts a day.

[lvoss]

I know how that goes. It will take awhile for Rally to earn her VLCM. She is going pretty much going 8 points at a time. It took Rally and Nicky longer to earn their VFCh than their FCh titles because they are the only 2 vets running at most events.

This past weekend at the WVBC lure trial in Cathlamet WA we had an entry of 19 basenjis! It was an all breed trial held in conjunction with the Afghan Club of Greater Portland for a fun filled 3 days of coursing.

Congrats on an exciting weekend, my boy Dude earned 2nd place in the open stake both days missing a 5 point major by a mere point… I am SO proud of him as it was our first trial

Way to go Bella!! The pics are great, love the one of L'Ox!

You can always find events for coursing by visiting www.asfa.org or www.akc.org and doing a search on the events calendar. I believe the next trials will be mid May in Hollister, can't access the ASFA site right now, but check them out

You know I did get an email reminder about that from Sue McNeill event but missed seeing it. I did get the premiums for the May event.

Hi
Does anyone know of a place I can take my B's to try them at lure coursing near Los Angeles?
thanks,
Raquel

[tanza]

Check out www.asfa.org for coursing clubs near you in So. California. You can also search the AKC events calendar for Lure Coursing events that will give you the club names. Most have practices depending on the weather and equipment.

[BellaJane]

Thanks, I have been at it all day, for some reason I am having trouble locating any info on these clubs online. California Coursing Assn is listed as having trials in Chino very soon. However I cannot find a website for them.
I have tried this before…...then I get tired of coming up empty. I was just hoping someone knew something I could access.....
It feels kinda like you have to "be in the know" or have a whippit or greyhound...lol!
thanks anyhow, I shall give up again until the next wave stikes me.

[pacificNWbasenji]

Keep checking the ASFA, AKC, LGRA or NOTRA sites monthly, new events are added all the time. I know with AKC sometimes the clubs cannot apply for another event until a scheduled event has been completed. Sometimes the clubs do not have a website, but do have an email list that you can sign up with to receive notifications and or premium lists for future events. Also, most clubs know each other, so if you find a contact at one club try asking for information on another. Hope this helps!

[pacificNWbasenji]

I looked on the AKC site and found the Chino trials you are talking about in November (thanksgiving weekend)

If you click on the link for the 'California Coursing Club' it will provide contact info: name, email, physical address & phone # for more information.

If you click on the 'Get Club Info' link it will show you all of the pending future trials for that club.

[lvoss]

If you go to my website which is listed in my profile and email me, I can get you touch with people in Southern California who run the coursing announcement list.
