It is no secret that terriers have a high prey drive.
Lure Coursing is the perfect sport for Airedales!
A furry pelt, races around a track of string. The operator has the ability to speed up the pelt or change direction at anytime.
That furry critter whips around the yard like the REAL deal!
Here is one of my brothers, chasing it down.
This Saturday, I will be revisiting the Lure Course!
This time, I plan on catching it!
Wyatt
Cool, Wyatt! That sounds like a lot of fun...you know I like to chase things too. Maybe I'm part Airedale.
ReplyDeleteWe bet you will get it on the first try, Wyatt. Have a lot of fun.

How fun! I would LOVE to see Max's reaction to that...he'd probably knock me over running for the door! ha!
ReplyDeleteVery impressive! I bet you're very quick when chasing after the lure. I once saw an American/Olde English bulldog chase one of those and boy, it was a lot quicker than I thought it would be!
ReplyDeleteHey Wyatt! Thanks for stopping by my blog! It's nice to meet ya! Boy, I'd really like to give that a try! I'm REAL GOOD at chasing things even though I'm just a 14 lb. Yorkie.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a blast! Good luck on catching it. We have some deerhound friends that do that.

We would love that. We're not even allowed to chase cats!
ReplyDeleteXXXOOO Daisy, Bella & Roxy
That looks like so much fun. We both think we would have fun trying that too.

You go Wyatt, zoomies are the best in that soft grass

You look like a pro! When momma was MUCH younger she had a whippet and they belonged to a lure coursing club...great exercise and LOTS of fun, she says...I am thinking not so much for us Eskies...agility, sure, but really we are more the sprint, then chill under a shade tree while rehydrating and eating noshes types!
ReplyDeleteYou go Wyatt!!
ReplyDeleteYou catch it and show them!! bol

Oh! That looks like so much fun!! We would like to play that game!! xoxo Chloe and LadyBug
ReplyDeleteThat looks like fun. We hope mum takes a video of it. Have a fabulous Friday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
What fun and such great exercise. Wyatt burned a lot of calories and had a blast as well. We used to play a similar game in college, only we used beer as the lure ;-)
ReplyDeleteWith love from SlimDoggy.
That's so cool, wyatt. You sure look very happy.
ReplyDeleteHey Wyatt!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a fun game! I do the same thing with the munks in my territory. Great action pix. I bet next time you'll score a win! Enjoy the chase.
Grr and Woof,
Sarge, COP
That looks like super fun!
ReplyDeleteThat looks really cool Wyatt!
ReplyDeleteOMD!! OMD!! That looks like TONS of funs Wyatt!! Oh, man I bets it's just like chasin' those evil tree rats!! I'm very good at that ya know?!
ReplyDeleteGood Luck Wyatt ~ I know you'll get it!!
Kisses,
Ruby
Oh gosh that does looks the most fun a terrier could have, short of chasing a real life rat/fox/rabbit/squirrel/deer/whatever.
ReplyDeleteToodle pip!

Wowwee Wyatt!!! Hm, since I'm a terrier, maybe I would like to do that whole lure coursing thing too!!! :-D Thanks for you and your brother showing us how it's done dude! Now, must look up lure coursing!
ReplyDeleteNot sure why but my assistant is laughing. Between you and me, I am a terrier and I have no prey drive
ReplyDeleteYour pal, Pip
Fun! I know my dogs both love lure coursing. We always do it with the AKC coursing club in our area to make sure the dogs stay safe, since a lure operator can injure the dogs if they don't know what they are doing. Where are you guys getting a chance to lure course?
ReplyDeleteOur Airedale club hires a professional for our spring get together.
DeleteWhat fun. I was just wondering because I don't know of any lure coursing stuff in the Portland area. I did hear that there is going to be a Coursing Ability Test (CAT) in Vancouver in the beginning of July though. Maybe you guys are planning to go?
DeleteThat looks like great fun. Mama is signing me up for a Flyball class this summer and then Treibbal in the fall. Seems like our peeps want to keep us busy!
ReplyDeleteHow fun!!
ReplyDeleteThat sure looks like tons of fun, Wyatt!
ReplyDeleteLove ya lots♥
