Now theres a couple of things i aint had said to me in a while :clown: :clown: (w00t) sorry firing squad ok im back on track lol :wacko: Yvonne you know why i've been gettin fit to run from my smart arse comments (w00t)

I'm with you on that one, :thumbsup: that's one reason why i like the bends. :teehee: di
 
my opinion is that all dog within the amnesty should be allowed to reg and run any dog outside the date that go over the weight should get there money unless the cap is voted out this year lol
I TOTALY AGREE WITH WHAT YOU ARE SAYING AND IF THINGS GETS CHANGED AGAIN IF IM RIGHT IN THINKING ITS A PROPOSAL YEAR THATS EVEN BETTER IM SURE COMMONSENCE WILL PREVAIL IN THE END AND WE CAN MOVE FORWARD IN THE SPORT WE ALL LOVE.

LIKE IVE SAID RULES R RULES AND WE SHOULD ALL STICK TO THEM BUT IT DOES NOT MEAN WE HAVE TO AGREE WITH THEM.

MUST REMEMBER TO PAY MY SUBS SO I CAN HAVE MY VOTE. (w00t)
 
Still no exact weigh of the dog in question...any one know ?

Don’t think I am been funny but I have heard the dog is on the very large size of 70lb plus

In all honesty if it is as big as some are saying then you have to take into consideration our smaller no limits that will be racing against it and the safety aspect of them...

LAST TIME IT RACED I THINK IT WAS 68LB
 
another suggestion that was raised on this issue at the reps meeting was to re- introduce the no limit class to accommodate the dogs that fall in with the amnesty but exceed 55lbs and as the size of some of these dogs ws a concern in regards to safety scrap the SUPREME RUN OFF

makes much more sense 2 me that does rather than stopping dogs racing. wot way is the dog bred is it bred correctly ie not with the wrong % of ghd but unfortunalty it has exceeded the 55lb limit? is that right?

Why scrap the Supreme run off, :eek: i speak for my self on this one but i like to see how my dog can do against the other weight groups other wise i would be traveling for just one race, (w00t) probably won't bother if they decide to go that way.(or I'll just have to get a yrd per pound dog) :lol:

I don't mind racing Leia against any size dog on the bends but i hope the dogs are seeded properly or it's a accident waiting to happen in opinion. :thumbsup: ( I love the name Black Pearl, wish I'd thought of it). ;) di

it one of a few suggestions put forward another one being

to have a no limit class as additional racing( the way it was years back) winner take all , to accommodate the dogs affected by this rule

thought id read somewhere it was same litter as bigland bailey? maybe im wrong? :wacko: also how is that breeding wrong? i thought it was just something with ghd in it cudnt line a full ghd? again im prob wrong as i get confused on the breeding thing? :wacko:

ie the breeding thing * i cudnt line mickey whizz (quater ghd) with a full ghd but i cud line him with nikki whizz a half ghd* or thats wot i thought.

seeding is a joke,...nearly everybody in no limit just seeds inside, when you look at most of the pictures posted on here you can see that most of the inside seeded dogs are not hugging the rail on the last bend... when a true inside seeded dog hugs the rail tight.... mind you its a good way to mess the race up for a true inside dog....thats for sure...... it has being brought to attention for both governing bodies, but nothing gets done about it.. even when its there to see. from the pictures of most bend meetings...
