NCWC AKC Lure Coursing Results


  • I hadn't heard of this event as I would liked to have attended.


  • Big congrats to the new champion, that is wonderful. We normally have between 2-4 dogs running in our area, takes a long time to finish in ASFA at 8 pts a day.


  • I know how that goes. It will take awhile for Rally to earn her VLCM. She is going pretty much going 8 points at a time. It took Rally and Nicky longer to earn their VFCh than their FCh titles because they are the only 2 vets running at most events.


  • This past weekend at the WVBC lure trial in Cathlamet WA we had an entry of 19 basenjis! It was an all breed trial held in conjunction with the Afghan Club of Greater Portland for a fun filled 3 days of coursing.

    Congrats on an exciting weekend, my boy Dude earned 2nd place in the open stake both days missing a 5 point major by a mere point… I am SO proud of him as it was our first trial :)


  • Way to go Bella!! The pics are great, love the one of L'Ox!

    You can always find events for coursing by visiting www.asfa.org or www.akc.org and doing a search on the events calendar. I believe the next trials will be mid May in Hollister, can't access the ASFA site right now, but check them out

    You know I did get an email reminder about that from Sue McNeill event but missed seeing it. I did get the premiums for the May event.


  • Hi
    Does anyone know of a place I can take my B's to try them at lure coursing near Los Angeles?
    thanks,
    Raquel


  • Check out www.asfa.org for coursing clubs near you in So. California. You can also search the AKC events calendar for Lure Coursing events that will give you the club names. Most have practices depending on the weather and equipment.


  • Thanks, I have been at it all day, for some reason I am having trouble locating any info on these clubs online. California Coursing Assn is listed as having trials in Chino very soon. However I cannot find a website for them.
    I have tried this before…...then I get tired of coming up empty. I was just hoping someone knew something I could access.....
    It feels kinda like you have to "be in the know" or have a whippit or greyhound...lol!
    thanks anyhow, I shall give up again until the next wave stikes me.


  • Keep checking the ASFA, AKC, LGRA or NOTRA sites monthly, new events are added all the time. I know with AKC sometimes the clubs cannot apply for another event until a scheduled event has been completed. Sometimes the clubs do not have a website, but do have an email list that you can sign up with to receive notifications and or premium lists for future events. Also, most clubs know each other, so if you find a contact at one club try asking for information on another. Hope this helps!


  • I looked on the AKC site and found the Chino trials you are talking about in November (thanksgiving weekend)

    If you click on the link for the 'California Coursing Club' it will provide contact info: name, email, physical address & phone # for more information.

    If you click on the 'Get Club Info' link it will show you all of the pending future trials for that club.


  • If you go to my website which is listed in my profile and email me, I can get you touch with people in Southern California who run the coursing announcement list.


  • I know how that goes. It will take awhile for Rally to earn her VLCM. She is going pretty much going 8 points at a time. It took Rally and Nicky longer to earn their VFCh than their FCh titles because they are the only 2 vets running at most events.

    I have a lunge whip, which we've played with ever since I got her. She loves it. I tried her at it on a small course back in July at our club picnic (here's the video, I've posted it before. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gl6NAGvjow) and she took off like a crazy girl. That was her second time doing it that day. A few months before that she was a little unsure of what to do. So, it sounds like to practice her a number of times to get her highly focused on the lure. I'm guessing Sue might be going to Racine in August, but if you're there too Lisa, I'd appreciate any input on her "focus" if she gets to do some practice runs. Clay

    Yay glad to see some more local interest! As far as training, there is a group called SONG (Sighthounds of North Georgia) that does informal practices once a month or so depending on man power & weather. These practices are a great way to introduce a new dog to the lure. However, for most dogs its an instinctual thing & they don't need much training. Lola & Callie both caught on to it their first time. I just let them both watch other dogs doing it first, then let them go & they did their thing. Website for SONG: http://www.nghounds.info/index_files/Page430.htm It doesn't get updated frequently, but go to the lure coursing practice tab, scroll to the bottom & there are instructions to get on the e-mail list for upcoming practices. Hope to see you lure coursing soon!

    @Mia: I tried an online seach for lure coursing in Orlando but nothing. The closest one is about an hour away, actually ASFA only cites 3 in the whole state of Florida! If anyone can give me advice on how to find a club and get my puppy running that would be great. Thanks If they are not listed with ASFA or not AKC ( and I check AKC site and looks like only one club in AKC does coursing in FLA, Sunshine State Coursing Club of Central Florida) most likely you will not find one any closer. You might try NOTRA (oval track and see if any in FLA) but usually the same clubs that course do NOTRA. Also you might contact the club in Fla and ask them..

    But then I recommend that all be muzzled when running. I never used to.. but over the years of coursing have totally changed my mind. But not because dogs might be nasty… If you start out your dogs with a muzzle, they begin to associate the muzzle with coursing and know when that goes on they are going to "chase" the bunny. I would prefer that it was "required" for all hounds to run muzzled like it is for Oval/Straight line.
