    It has been a really good weekend for the Veterans at the Quirky Run. They have had some great runs. My kids won't be going for the third day so I won't have those results but it was a fun 2 days and done before 2pm each day.

  • Go Vets!!!!!!! congrats Lisa… (Rally and Nicky too)

  • FUN! Congrats Lisa! Why is it called a 'quirky run'? Our Querky would like that :)

    PS….my sister's family just bought a ranch/walnut farm in Hollister :)

  • In Southern California, for Thanksgiving Weekend the clubs down there hold a Turkey Run. When the Northern California clubs started holding trials on the same weekend they wanted a name for it and an Award for the best dog of the weeked. They decided on Quirky and on Sunday all the BOB dogs from the weekend are eligible to compete for the Best of the Quirky award.

    Cool….. Hollister is about 1 1/2 from me..... now I know where to get fresh Walnuts!!!!! And you will have to come visit!!!!

  • I posted a race on www.youtube.com but I don't know which race it was.
    Also put some practice runs on there for the doggies that wanted to try it.
    The tiniest dog ( Shitzhu ) is my little doggy Lucy who was crying the whole time
    she was watching because she wanted to run after the rabbit. She pulled and pulled
    on the leash until I finally got her a chance to run at the end.

    It was fun to watch and I hope to tape it again next time.I can put this on dvd if anybody
    wants it. The camera is in high definition except that youtube is not high def.

    Bring a chair to sit in (as there will be a long waiting period in between runs), a crate for your B to hang out when you aren't running or walking around, snacks, plenty of water for you and your B and you should be all set! I will be in a black Toyota FJ Cruiser so if you see my truck you can park by me.

    Hi All, Would love to brag about my Rocky,UKC Champion Kiroja Chicago Hood at Jaroufa,SGRC,ORC He got 5 pts over the week-end at the PHAST NOTRA meet and is currently #1 NOTRA Basenji for the year with 19.5 pts. In two weeks we go to regain his #1 spot in LGRA.I'm trying to make him the first basenji in history to hold the #1 spot in both LGRA/NOTRA. Rocky is a SUPERDOG! Lightning fast and a momma's boy. I'm sooooooooo proud of him and hope to have many more years of racing with him. Kathryn D. Ladick Jaroufa Hounds

    @Tayda_Lenny: Lenny actually escaped from a fenced yard yesteday for the first time… scared me to DEATH. Once when I first got him ( he was about 15 weeks old) we were outside w/ leashes and the clip on his collar snapped and he was free. Instead of running after him, I got his attention (miracle) and ran as fast as I could away from him and into the house. He thought I was playing and chased after me. I did the same thing yesterday. He was out of the fence and running around sniffing things and when I got his attention (from about 100 feet away, I did a sort of "human play bow" and then sprinted into the yard. Luckily he chased after me. (Beat me into the yard too... the little monster) . WHEW! and then my heart started beating again. Anyway, just wanted to share that technique. It has worked for me the 2 times I've needed it. Get their attention, and then run in the other direction... I did the same thing with Ruby, the one time she got free when I was walking her and I fell. Worked like a charm :D. It always feels good to outsmart her :D.

    In general, they leave them alone. It is when they have to wait in the boxes because of some delay that they usually get bored enough to try to get them off. In that race there was one basenji that had no box training and really fought the boxes which delayed the race long enough for Levi to wrestle his muzzle off. I do have one basenji who fusses with her muzzle during a race but she is getting better about it and actually won 2 races this weekend even with the fussing. We are going to take the suggestion of a Visla owner and start giving her canned cheese when she wears the muzzle and doesn't fuss to reinforce the muzzle is a good thing. The fuzzy lure was a huge reinforcement but she has some negative associations with the muzzle that we have to work on overcoming.
