GA lure course practice June 29 CANCELLED

Basenji Meetups & Events
  • I got an email just minutes ago that today's lure coursing practice has been cancelled due to the rain from last night at the field. Our practice is held on a well groomed polo field and we do not risk tearing up the field sideline with automobiles after storms. Go figure, its been bone dry across the state for weeks but let us set up a coursing practice and we get a storm the night before. sighs Oh well we really did need the rain. We'll try again in July.

  • You mean the e-mail sent at 7:08 when practice was at 8??!!?? Haha. We were already in the car. We took a picture of us all parked and set up, dogs in crates with the easy up, chairs and coolers. We'll call it a drill. Thank goodness for Blackberries b/c otherwise we wouldn't have known.

    When we took Lela to a coursing last year, we found that many B's started cutting corners as soon as they say how the lure moved. They were back in no time, much faster than the whippets!

    She looks great.. and Chealsie… don't worry about fencing when coursing... I have never seen a Basenji become that unsighted that they take off..... they might get lost, but for practice, they keep it just about under their noses....

    We were lure coursing in Columbia, KY two weekends ago! Check out the Bluegrass Coursing Club. We will be at the Specialty too, hope to see you there. We are hoping to organize a dinner out for forum members who are going (I need to get on that…..)

    It was a great trial… One of my girls (who lives with Ann Patterson-Hine) is a new Dual Champion with back to back 5pt majors from this weekend.... YEA!!!! She is now DC* Tanza's Almazi Madini,SC,RN,CD,CGC,FCH (aka Crystal). Thanks to her Mom, Ann for putting on the Obedience Titles!!!! And she is loving her new baby B Brother.... Kobey..... Crystal is 6 1/2... and we have been trying to get her lure majors for quite a while... Crystal, while a good runner would beat herself by running the course before it ever started... LOL...

    As far as I can tell, there are only 3 clubs in TN that hold lure coursing events; Chattanooga Kennel Club, Maury County Kennel Club, and Nashville Kennel Club. You can get contact info for these clubs at www.asfa.org and www.akc.org. Chances are that your dog will enjoy lure coursing and it is indeed wonderful exercise. Only purebred, registered animals may participate in actual competition but most clubs are pretty friendly about allowing any dog to run in practices. My best wishes to you.
