So as mentioned before the Curly Tails have tried their paws at Lure Coursing before, but it has always just been for fun so far.
This Saturday they got to try it out in earnest. Both Watson and Menchi were entered to run at the Trial in Racine, WI this weekend, hosted by the Midwest Lure Coursing Club.
I am happy to brag that both of them walked away with a ribbon and a leg towards a title. Watson has his first leg toward his JC (Junior Courser) and Menchi is working on her CA (Coursing Ability). Most importantly though both of them loved it... Menchi could hardly wait her turn once she saw other dogs running the lure.
The funnest part for me other than watching them fly after the lure was the reaction of the judge when he saw Menchi run the full 600 yard course.
He said: "Huh, a Shar Pei...!" in an impressed "well I'll be dammend" voice :D
