Welcome Paula! It was so great to meet you and Bella on Sunday! And she did sooooo well at her first time chasing the bunny.

I was supposed to give you some lure coursing links but I am at work presently and have everything bookmarked on my other computer. I will post again later tonight.
You will get the hang of the forum in no time
Don't forget to post pictures!

Welcome to the forums and hello from another "Bella's Mom.":D Oh, and I can't wait 'till you get the hang of navigating the forums so we can see pictures of your Bella!

[Bella's Mom]

Thanks for sharing so much on Sunday…any trips to Lewis Park planned anytime soon? I definitely would like to meet up for playdates. Bella and I are planning to go to Kennesaw Mountain this weekend (weather permitting) and of course we top off each Sat & Sun at the Swift-Cantrell off leash park. Looking forward to the links when time permits...Paula and Bella

AKC, to search for AKC coursing events. Go to Events and Awards search on the left and select Lure coursing on the "Competition Type" drop down menu.

If Bella doesn't have AKC registration you can apply for an ILP # for her and she can compete in pretty much any event except conformation. Carrie will be able to tell you more about that.

Actually I'm free on Sunday, so we could have a playdate.

You are awesome! I think I gave my cell phone number to Carrie…or maybe it was you. I would definitely like to meet up for playdates...my cell 678-270-0403. Bella and I plan to hit the mountain (weather permitting) on Sat morn and afternoon, as well as Sunday morn and afternoon.

Hey Paula,

Posting personal info is a no no. If you e-mail the moderators you can ask them to send us your e-mail address and we can be in touch that way.

[Bella's Mom]

Clearly I don't know the rules…how do I email the moderator?

[mauigirl]

Yeah it's ok, no worries, really.
Um….I think they are
admin@basenjiforums.com

Or "Contact Us" on the bottom right ought to work also.

[Bella's Mom]

Thanks, I just sent an email to the webmaster to forward my info to you…let's see what happens. Tell Liz, Zip and the ever handsome Riley "Hi! from myself and Bella"
