  • I HIGHLY doubt that I can go, given the distance from home and the time of day, but… can B's that aren't participating be brought along, just for fun?


  • I don't know about that..contact Jordan and ask.
    I do know that EBC is very much wanting to get "just folks" into lure
    coursing, rally, lots of fun things for pet owners to do with their b's.
    I have to say they have also been wonderful in supporting basenji rescue.
    So, as you can tell, I am a big fan of this club.
    Nice folks as well!
    Do try to go.
    Its just good fun…


  • I think that all would be welcome at the EBC event… regardless of the type of event or if you are entered or not....


  • Oh, Pat, everyone is welcome, but I do know that in some events..dogs who are not entered shouldn't be on the grounds.
    Don't they have that rule at most AKC dog shows?
    Anyway, if I am wrong, please correct me.
    I want everyone to come.

    Even at AKC shows.. people bring puppies or un-entered dogs…. There is a difference about being on the grounds and the "show limits" which means the area where judging is taking place...

    And for lure trials... no one even cares about those things...


  • Thanks Pat. I don't being my dogs to the EBC specality, because its too hot and I am not set up for dogs ring side. I go every year to support the club and talk to folks about b rescue.
    So, I am not up on what is ok and what isn't re taking dogs on the grounds.
