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!

    We're thinking about having another lure coursing fundraiser in November. It was so much fun this last time. Here is the photo album from the photographer. Lots of different breeds of dogs. http://www.allcreaturesphoto.com/GroupOrg-Events/BCOSW And just to toot my own horn, here is a pic or two of my dogs from the album. Zoni - she's a natural, can't wait to run her for real. She has laser focus on the lure. http://www.allcreaturesphoto.com/GroupOrg-Events/BCOSW/BCSOW-Fundraiser-May-15-2010/BCOSWFundRaiser201005150858/875537175_bhDBE-S.jpg Nemo - can't believe he actually coursed. He's a bit of a goof (and looks like a kangaroo in the pic :) ). I was more thrilled to watch him run than Zoni. He zoned out the second time to sniff some flowers and didn't complete the course. :D http://www.allcreaturesphoto.com/GroupOrg-Events/BCOSW/BCSOW-Fundraiser-May-15-2010/BCOSWFundRaiser201005150856/875536788_UsTCt-L.jpg

    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…..)

    @ComicDom1: Well here is the Ironic thing. Many of the people at coursing were the same people at the show and to be honest in our area I could not tell any difference. Everyone was very friendly and very interested in getting to know others. Maybe its because I have snow on the roof! Of course do not forget I do have testosterone poisoning. Jason Yep, the basenji people at the coursing event were all at the Chicago specialty with the except of 2 or 3. There are only a few that I can think of that don't do both showing and coursing. They are all very friendly and helpful. I'm looking forward to the club fun day in July.
