Congrats to all. We had a great day, lots of good runs…. and considering it is Basenji breeding season a pretty decent entry after many scratches for bitches in season....

[red and white furever]

Sounds like so much fun, Pat!!!
Tell Rafiki and Chris congrats from Stormie and I, and sneak that little Rasta Man an extra treat from us, too! ;) :)

[tanza]

I will do that, he ran really well today!

[red and white furever]

Thumbs and Paws up!! I knew he'd kick some serious tail! I'm so glad he did well -bet he looked beautiful, too!

[Vanessa]

Towards the end of the day I had Chance do a practice run. Being that he is not old enough to run with the big leagues he did preatty well. He actually chased the lure around the entire course. Too bad he decided not to stop when the lure came to the finish line. I had to run after after him. Typical Basenji :)
It was a great day! So many beautiful basenji's.

One of the many reasons that I recommend running with a muzzle…

[tanza]

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.
