Wanda,
There is practice every Thurs night for coursing in Davie. It usually starts
about 5:45pm and runs to the last dogs have had a chance to run. E-mail if
interested and I will send directions. It is in Davie which is in South Broward
County.
On Sat I am pretty sure we will be doing a M&G at Petsmart in Sunrise Fla. Also
in Broward County. It is on Sunrise Blvd just east of Flamingo. We are usually
there from about 10:30 to 2. We are usually there every Sat. Tomorrow may be a
little touch & go as my partner for the M&G is dropping her dog at my house
tomorrow as her Mother in law is not expected to live thru the night. I am
planning to go but may have to change last minute. You can call the store to
make sure we are there.
E-mail me if you have any questions. Not too much elso going on right now
because of the heat here right now. Always slow in the summer. Opposite of up
north. I hope you are prepared for the heat if you are moving her. Where are you
from?
Good luck with the house hunt.
Rae in Davie Fla

sighthound breed and is neutered you can apply to AKC for an ILP number which

obedience, coursing). An ILP number is acceptable to LGRA, NOTRA and ASFA.

Thank you everyone who came out Monday Night.
The weather was absolutely beautiful. We ran hounds and Wannabeehounds till
dark.
I have no idea how many dogs were there.
Let's see
1 Pharoah (Ida -Carol's)
5 salukis (Karen's)
8 whippets (Marino's Harry and Duncan, Dee's Daisy and Deke, Dana's Dustin and
Huey, Michael's Cody and Penny's O'P)
1 Tervuren (Roo I think of ???)
1 Belgian Malinois (Sally's Loki)
3 jack Russells (Heather's Heidi, and 2 others from flybvall I know but have
forgotten names of)
12 Greyhounds - help me out folks
Loki and brindle girl (Rae and Carl)
Dharma, Drake and Lucy (Penny)
Adam (Marino)
Waynette, Skeeter, Claire, Launch (Sergio)
Dee with her new adopters(???)
Junior (Phil)
That would be around 31 dogs having fun and many owners running around!!
Eventually all the dogs made it to the finish line (a little meandering and
occasional senior moments were observed) safe and sound.
Daisy whippet pulled a muscle maybe and was gallantly carried to the finish by
Marino. I have checked with Dee and she is doing better.
I must say some of the wannabeehounds really do wanna be! They gave it all and
wanted more.
I am glad everyone finally found the secret road. Maybe someone could make a
sign to put out on Orange Drive for next Wednesday?
