Purple Julie Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 DOH!! still 1:40 according to travelmate but we hope to be there Ok, so Tim writes that it's 10am - 4pm, while Sparty writes that it's 1.40pm. I'm confused And what it Travelmate? I'm guessing that the Pet expo is 10am-4pm and the Lure coursing is on at 1.40pm is that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netti Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Has anyone any information of Lure coursing in Tasmania. I would love to let my dogs have a go. Netti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poodlefan Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Netti, hopefully a Tasmanian might know of something but your local Canine Control and any Tasmanian Hound or Sighthound club may be worth a call. We don't have any here in the ACT. That's why we travel to Sydney for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kez Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 (edited) I know the Jack Russell Terrier Club of Australia often have "Lure racing" at the local Agricultural shows :rolleyes: Netti if you're a member of a local breed club with your dogs (or an obedience club), you might want to "start your own" as a demonstration, since the Agi show season is almost starting Edited September 5, 2005 by Kez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazz Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 Does anyone know if lure coursing is done in SA ? - never noticed any notices about it in the journal before. Is it breed specific ? Also do you guys who do it find that it makes your dogs animal chasers ? (reactive to moving objects). I have a energetic wei whom would probably love doing it but as I live in a rural area I wouldn't want her chasing wildlife/stock (which she doesn't but would like to keep it that way) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatevah Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 I have chooks at home and used to have a sheep and my dogs never think to chase them. A plastic bag on a string looks a bit different. My dogs do chase tennis balls though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gemella Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Hi .. we also have 2 siberian huskies and they love the lure coursing. It really tires them out! which is fantastic.... does anyone know when the next lure coursing date will be in nsw ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
