ASFA Lure Coursing this w/e in Oberlin, OH

Basenji Training
  • Hi -

    Is anyone thinking about going?

  • I would like to. Where do I find the info?

  • Holly,

    Did you get an e-mail from admin sending you my email address? I have people I can put you in touch with regarding coursing in Ohio and where to find premiums. I have a whole mess of bookmarks for coursing, but for region 7. See if you can find a region 6 website and maybe a yahoo email list. Or the coursing club might have its own website and premiums could be posted up there.

    good luck!

    Hi -

    www.lorainarearacingklub.com - that's the website.

    If you want to go, let me know & I'll make certain you have good directions on how to get there.
    I'm wanting to certify Trinity this Saturday & am supposed to call back Thursday morning for more details - let me know!

  • I can't really afford to go down there and take time off work, but it is tempting. My club has weight pulls up here though, so if we have some extra money this weekend that's what I'll be doing. lol

    I wouldn't expect many, if any Basenji people at the Oberlin trial. You're more likely to see a few folks though at the trials in the Dayton area. (Yellow Springs, Fairborn, etc.)

    There is an ASFA trial south of Detroit the second weekend of October. I'm planning on being there if you want to come? :)

    How did you like running in nice warm GA? We only ran one day of AKC in OK as the rain turned real heavy overnight and continued into the morning, none of us wanted to run our whippets on a slick clay hill. See you in TN next weekend with my 2 boys

    This coming weekend there is LGRA and NOTRA in Orange County. My mom has the information. I think there is also some racing in December in Orange County. Don't know what the show schedule looks like or if these conflict with any. I do know this time of year is the racing season in So Cal since the parks are available.

    @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 :)
