plz can you count Oto and Tissy in again,
i'll bubble wrap Tiss prior to the event then he can't miss it again ;)

it's such a shame when things are taken far too seriously and people start getting huffy about stuff, we all enjoy our dogs and they all enjoy the run, you'd think in the light of the ban on the real thing and the constant threat from the anti-dog brigade that a little unity would be a good idea. :huggles:

there is room for everyone so arguing for arguments sake is pointless and gets no one anywhere.

my boy is 1/4 of an inch over the limit for other lure coursing events but he does love it sooo much, and if it wasn't for events like this he'd have to stop at home  :( that extra 1/4 inch doesn't make him any less a whippet or any less of more able to run after the lure.

i'd love to be able to compare his running skills against dogs in other clubs but so far this seems to be the only club that doesn't have closed veiws on lure coursing whippets.

his extra height and weight could be a problem in racing if he was mixed with smaller dogs as they generally run much faster, in groups of 4 and they all pile in at the end on a lure, but in lure coursing things are slower, they only run in pairs and there are very very rarely tumbles at the end.

you just don't get the same thrills and spills in lure coursing so size differences isn't much of a safety issue :thumbsup:

like 99% + of the people who ran their dogs last sunday i was there purely for the fun (and the bbq)  :D , i really expected old unfit oto to be knocked out in the first round, so when he made the 3rd round i was busting with pride  :wub:

thats what it's all about, watching your dog run and loving them just the same no matter how they do  :cheers:


This is my attitude, my wee girl is brand new to lure coursing, and I would be dissapointed if winning was the only reason people were there.

I don't think I would have come back if it was too competetive. :- "

I was very impressed with the dog being pulled out of the final for his own good!

And I thought that was a professional and loving attitude that reflected well on everyone present! :cheers:

Competition has it's place, and the more rounds you win you will get more excited and your hopes will be raised but at the end of the day it is more important to go home with a happy, healthy dog, ZZZZZZZZZZZZeding in the boot!!!! :thumbsup:

And on a personal note I want my dog's to race all comers, win or lose, big or small, (it's not up to someone else or a measuring tape to judge what my dogs can or can't beat) cause then if they beat them all I will know that they are the best lol but if they don't, they ran against all~comers and had fun!!

And if they choose not to run I don't care about that either because they are my dogs and they are the best anyway. To me!!! :wub:
 
Forgive my ignorance but what does the (S) mean after Arve Ladzes name??
