just back from a weekend in Amsterdam at the European racing championship's and what a eye opener :thumbsup: 195 racer,on sat, and 115 on sunday started at 9 o'clock in the morning and finished with the presentation all done for 5 o'clock, on both day's,

6 european country's taking part, the organization was fantastic you got a program (well more like a book ) that tell's you what time racing will start and what time the finale will be and that was exactly what time racing started and what time the final was, they also had the news paper reporting on the championships, and all the people are so friendly they all made us so well come, already got our place booked for next year :thumbsup: we have a lot to learn about organization over here, :b just like to say thanks once again for a great weekend :cheers:

on the dvd the lure running 2 meters from the inside is more safe at the pick up,as the dogs stop at the lure,not flying into the wall and rails and injurying them selves as they do here

how did harolds rance do????

 

[hellbound]

he still don't like to pass dogs Dave, since he had a bad tumble when racing,

hoping to get a dvd from the weekends racing, had a camera man there all weekend and a vet who checked ever dog out that ran before they were allowed to take part, :thumbsup:

they pay more for entry fee, which must cover vets attendance. not a bad idea.

after the accidents over the past weeks. even a avaiable vet phone number would

be a help in case of accidents. pity rans (flying dutchman) is having problems smart dog.
