Susan has some great photos of her dogs lure coursing. I love lure coursing photos. I just uploaded three new ones to my gallery, http://www.basenjiforums.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=11

Wow what great looking dogs. Looks like they course in NJ…do they??

That lure coursing looks like sooo much fun. I would love to get Hollie involved, but would have to drive 2 hours one way to reach the close participants in my state. :( I have thought about resorting to a fishing pole with something attached to the end of the pole.

Get a lunge whip and tie an old plastic grocery bag – pref. white -- on the end and go for it! Be ready to move . . FAST!!!

It is a "horse" item, if you have a tack store (store for the "horsey set" you can find one there….

Aha I see…we don't see many horses around her but there should be somewhere that sells that kinda stuff. Thanks! :D

Looks like a large version of a cat toy.

I started with a cat toy with a pl bag tied on the end to see if they would be interested before i went any further. The I used an old fishing rod with rope tied from there. Kind of worked the same as a lunge whip. (I'm too cheap to buy one if I don't absolutely need one)
