This past weekend I took Nova and Delilah down to Georgia to go lure coursing! For those of you who know me in real life, you know that I adopted a Greyhound puppy with hopes of having a lure coursing dog since my retired racers all have old injuries that prevent them from competing. After Delilah became Justin's "baby" he fretted about her hurting herself in competition. Luckily, I finally convinced him to let me take her. She had a blast of course! Unfortunately, she slipped her pads and could only run once. However, we are going to work on her pads and let her run again as soon she heals up and there is a meet. Nova has run LGRA in the past and is pointed, so I was pretty sure he would take to coursing as well. He did not let me down! He ran 4 times this weekend, and got his ASFA certification and became a Qualified Courser with AKC. He's ready to compete after he practices some more and we know that he won't get distracted by other intact males. :)
I took well over 1,000 pictures and I'm pretty sure nobody wants to shift through them all. So, I will post highlights here later. For now, here are some videos.
