    Terry of Ottaray Hounds attended last weekend's ASFA trial in Calhoun, GA with her girl Claire. It was fun meeting Claire, who looks like she could be littermates with Lola!
    Terry added pictures of the weekend to her website, and also put together a video! Enjoy!

    The pictures take a bit to load, and the basenji pictures start about 2/3 of the way down with Beck in a yellow coat. Then shots of Zip & Clair posing with their ribbons, Riley posing in his red coats, me & Lola, a couple of Booger & then shots of Lola meeting Claire & Bonmi.

    The first run is Riley (MauiGirl), followed by another Tri, Beck from Chicago. The third run is Booger… you can see he didn't finish. He just kind of lost interest & ran off. In the next scene, MauiGirl tells Booger we're sending him to a glue factory in China. :D Then the next several runs are Zip's Best in Field runs with stills of her posing with her ribbons!! There are also some stills of Clair, Lola meeting Clair & Liz posing with some IGs. Very cute video!

    LOL @ glue factory. Nuh-uh.

    I didn't realize that Terry took videos the whole weekend…awesome! I think the solo runs turned out great, she could zoom in more. I sure wish that BIF run didn't have to be stopped like twice....In case you can't tell, our little Zip was in front of the pharoah and whippet for about 5 seconds in the first part! Haha!

    She has now run with a whippet, saluki, greyhound, pharoah hound....basenji, well duh.....I think that's about it.

    Did she run with a Rhodesian? Or did it run BIF, but not with her?

    Yup, there were two "flights" ( I think that's what they call them).

    @Mojo's: We took Mojo lure coursing for the first time a couple of weeks ago- he loved it! There was one lady who said if they ever do actually go after a real animal- say a bird or rabbit- and catch it, they will lose interest in lure cousing- they will want real prey. NOT TRUE… gggg..... Maggii loved to course... caught and killed 3 squirrels in our yard... never made a difference. Mickii caught and killed 2 ground squirrels on outdoor off lead runs... never made a difference (Oh and add one bird plucked out of the sky)... C-Me, just a year old now.. loves coursing... at 4 1/2 months caught her first squirrel in the yard and at 7 1/2 months one baby bird out of the sky

    @Mia: I tried an online seach for lure coursing in Orlando but nothing. The closest one is about an hour away, actually ASFA only cites 3 in the whole state of Florida! If anyone can give me advice on how to find a club and get my puppy running that would be great. Thanks If they are not listed with ASFA or not AKC ( and I check AKC site and looks like only one club in AKC does coursing in FLA, Sunshine State Coursing Club of Central Florida) most likely you will not find one any closer. You might try NOTRA (oval track and see if any in FLA) but usually the same clubs that course do NOTRA. Also you might contact the club in Fla and ask them..

    @lvoss: In order to get a JC your dog does not need to run with another dog. A JC is earned by your dog running the course by itself. It must pass 2 JC tests to earn the title. To certify a dog for ASFA the dog must run with another dog and show that it will not interfere. D'oh! I got the two mixed up :) But that's what I meant, lol…. Most of the lure trials we attended were ASFA trials....I think we did do practice runs at ONE AKC trial, but Jibini was less than 1 year old so I am pretty sure thats why we never did a JC "qualifying" run. I'm tempted to get back into it now that I have my own "pair".....but it always seems money is an issue that makes a 300-400 mile weekend jaunt a bit out of reach!! I also found it disheartening that there were so few Basenjis entered in Florida lure courses, and among those I met, nobody had dogs who could run with a strange dog. However, I enjoyed the time I spent at Lure trials and letting Jibini run....it was fun, even if we didn't get any "alphabet soup" for Jibini's name!!! Defintely an experience well worth it :)

    @Sunny: At what age is the best time to start lure coursing ?? And is there a course in oklahoma ?? Ide love to get Sandie into something like that, if she is interested… Sunny, You can start very short practices with puppies but you can't actually enter a trial until a dog is at least a year old. Coursing is available in Oklahoma. Your best bet is to contact Richard Stilwell. Richard and his wife Linda have been involved with lure coursing Basenjis for a long time and they can get you started in your area. Send me a private message for Richard email My best wishes. :)
