CockerPoppins Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Hi Molasseslass...................Say Hi to Steve for me! Poor Molly doesn't get to run......never mind, she won't be lonely! I'm sure the kids will keep her attention :D ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noisymina Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Too hot - and committed elsewhere that day! Might get up the courage to try again next year - but it seems Kaisie only chases the lure for a set distance -like about as far as the puppy run - then decides it's better just to run around, check out the scenery and return to me (like a good girl) while the lure just carries on merrily without her Well, she HAS learned to come back, I guess!. Maybe she is just not up to the task, not being a sight hound, that is?? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystiqview Posted December 5, 2004 Share Posted December 5, 2004 Nope.. Skye is going up to her breeders this afternoon as she is taking her to her vet for her elbow/hip score breed x-rays on Monday. And going looking at a friends puppies which were whelped on Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dali-love Posted December 5, 2004 Share Posted December 5, 2004 The next one is on the 16th Januari!! so write it down on you calender now! Pepper had a good run, escaped twice but surprisingly not points lost... Kila had a great run too. Unfortunally we had some showers but it was a good morning. Nice and cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAX Posted December 5, 2004 Share Posted December 5, 2004 This looks like heaps of fun. Can you do you fun run ( for a beginner dog) and if it goes well compete on the same day if you have entered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blacklabrador Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Yes you can try your dog to see if it is interested in the lure, and then enter it. I think dogs under 12 months aren't allowed to do a full run though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAX Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 What is the distance? Is it always a plastic bag lure? I think my dogs would love this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KitKat Posted December 6, 2004 Author Share Posted December 6, 2004 (edited) It is always a plastic bag lure but the dogs that prove interested don't seem to care. I think if you look up the website it will have the distance there...The link to the website is somewhere on this thread i think... Edited to add...are there any more cocker owners who might be interested in this? i think a cocker fun run would be cool and they could give the beagles a run for their money!

hilaryo Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 They probably would Kitkat - did you see the beagle pack run yesterday - going in all directions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv_is_a_staffy Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 (edited) Hey did any one hear how booker tee did? we had to go coz i had to go to work. It was lovely weather for it, booker wasnt even very hot. Hey does Tybrax have staffies, if so booker might have some competition. Its over 9 months and the dogs can compete. The distance is about 400 meters but they reckon the dogs run about 500 meters because they dont follow the lure exactly. Cheers A I wish i could spell :rolleyes: Edited December 6, 2004 by luv_is_a_staffy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dali-love Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 (edited) Because it is summer cup you do 3 courses over 3 month and the best 2 count. At discretion of the judge we were allowed to view our points... Kila and Pepper both had 83 wich is lower than normal but that's probably because we had a new judge... Tybrax has a pit bull so she won't be coming, she might come to watch if she can find a ride from the gold coast.
