Out lure coursing this weekend! Kram after he had a great little practice run (we’ll go for our first JC leg tomorrow), and Margo’s first cousin, Ava, being the loveliest girl.
#dogblr#petblr#dog#sighthound#borzoi#Krampus#wasn’t sure if Kram would run or not#so just did a practice today to see#he was surprisingly focused and had good follow#last time he saw anything was a puppy bomb at LGRA last year#and he was a tiny bit interested but nothing wild#but if he can maintain focus tomorrow we should be able to get a full course out of him no prob#he’s probably as fit as he’ll ever be#he’s spent the last two weeks out in the yard all day with vex

Vent sobre comprensión lectora y cultura de internet (ningún hecho puntual)
Me da lata cuando alguien trata de decir "oye sabías que X aplica para Y?", y sabiendo quién postea y sobre el tema podrías inferir que tan ampliamente aplica el post, pero porque muchos de nosotros tenemos Irony Poisoning+Terminal Posting Decease terminamos buscándole la 5 pata al gato para decir "oye te olvidaste de Z Ctm" y ganar la conversación por tener más información o algo asi
Lo menciono porque me he encontrado a mi misma teniendo discusiones por el gusto de contradecir o "ganar" la discusión, y aunque muchas veces lo hago de forma irónica/bromeando con amigos, han habido momentos donde lo hago de puro pedante y no me gusta eso :/
Finalmente creo que quiero recordarme a mi misma que no todas las conversaciones son pruebas de intro al álgebra donde si hay una sola posible contradicción entonces lo que dice la otra persona es inválido, y es hasta posible tener conversaciones con información incompleta, e incluso agregar a la conversación de forma respetuosa en ves de insultar ("oye interesante ejemplo, que opinas de Z? Yo creo que etc etc etc")

Happy happy birthday to Ponzi, who turns two today!
Ponzi, Punchie, Punchie Pie, Bunchie Baby, Miss Squidge, Squidgey is truly turning into the best dog. Not a day goes by that I don’t laugh at some antic or another and she is the sweetest girl in the world.
In the past year she’s earned 13 points and all her majors towards her AKC Field Championship despite very limited running. She’s also earned her first GRC points in LGRA. We’ve tackled a challenge course together and continued to work on our show ring skills.
I’m really looking forward to seeing what we can accomplish in the next year and then each one after that for as long as possible 🩷

(This is wyrddogs) I didn’t want to derail the post but I saw your comment that non-sighthounds can’t lure course because it’s dangerous. My club offers racing and lure coursing to non-sighthounds under LGRA/ AOK9 rules. I’d love to hear your thoughts/opinions on the dangers to non-sighthounds. (Asked in good faith for the potential for a respectful discussion.)
I'll happily answer as I know the question is in good faith, but if anyone tries to stir anything up - you'll be blocked!
So here's the thing: sighthounds were bred to hunt in packs. They've always hunted in flights. Are some of them going to resource guard? 100%. But because they're bred to hunt in groups, they tend to know how to run better together on a field and are less likely to have resource guarding issues. I think it's a horrible idea to put a pack of like, border collies, together to race and course. They're not bred for it so their runs won't be as safe, many of them are resource guarders, etc. Racing is probably safer, but I see safety issues with the idea of coursing and racing non-sighthound breeds. I love all the single-dog activities, like CATs and LCI, but running them in groups is asking for trouble.
Edited to add that it does NOT test athleticism to see what off-breed dogs course, which is what AOk9s website says is the purpose. Not the purpose of coursing - it's to test hunting ability. It's sort of a silly approximation...but that's a really dangerous way to "test athleticism" imo. Putting a bunch of pitties on a field to compete over a resource is a bad idea.
#note the emphasis folks!#these are not necessarily rules#but if you think about it dogs bred to hunt in packs are going to be much more aware of each other on the field than dogs that aren't#and less likely to guard the bags from one another#racing is probably safer but still not as safe as racing and coursing sighthounds#and in my opinion the risk:benefit ratio of coursing and racing non-sighthounds is high#have them go one at a time!

" Vo aakhari shaam "
vo uski aur meri ek saath akhari shaam thi
Us dhalte sooraj ke saath sirf us din ka ant nhi hora tha balki humare rishte ka bhi ant hora tha
Or use shayad is baat ka ehsaas nhi tha
Pr mujhe us doobte sooraj mein sab saaf dikhayi dera tha
Esa nhi tha ki vo khud se jana chahta tha pr uska jana zaruri tha
Or agar main use rokti to vo ruk jata par vo galat hota
Kyunki ab uske aage badhne ka waqt agya tha
Mujhe chhod ke, is shehar ko chhod ke,
Vo mujhe saath mein leke aage badhna chahta tha par main use bant ta hua nhi dekhna chahti thi
Main uske pair mein bandhi ek bedi ke saman hogyi thi
Jiska khulna zaruri tha or uska mujhse azaad hona zaruri tha
Mann to bahut tha ki waqt tham jata, vo shaam tham jati
Kyunki us pal mein sab itna sundar lgra tha ki kya kahu
Par us shaam ka ant hona zaruri tha
Jis tarah humara or humare raston ka alag hona zaruri tha
Ya fir yun kaho ki humari kahani ka adhoora rehna hi zaruri tha.....

i am so very very proud of how keen edi is. a hush literally came over the field when she practiced. seventeen weeks old and she’s faster and more focused than her dam. 😂 she is the tiniest of specks, but her confidence and spunk are absolutely to die for.

Margo has decided she doesn’t want to be a coursing dog, so we’re gonna close the book on it! I’m going to try her in ASFA singles and continue with LGRA as long as she wants to do it. But she still looks beautiful out there running for the … 3rd of the course she’ll run lol
#dogblr#petblr#dog#borzoi#sighthound#margo#still didn’t wanna finish a course#the last one she ran the longest but ran the other dog off the lure#after he was off though she got back on it for a little#so mayyubbeee she’ll do singles

Sorry to bring up an old post, but what do conformation and performance hypertypes look like in silkens? How do I avoid them if I look at breeders? Or is it a pedigree problem and not people?
My comment regarding hypertyping phenotypes in conformation lines was more about the general dog fancy itself and not silkens, such as more skin, more angulation, more coat, tremendous reach and drive and the such. I suppose some phenotypes I'm starting to see in silkens are more rear angles like show whippets, and an extremely sweepy topline to fake the appearance of an arch of the loin. It's not yet a huge problem in silkens yet imo.
In comparison, my comment made towards hypertyping performance lines were in reference to some silken breeding programs. It's less the appearance of the dogs, but more the behavior of the dogs used in those breeding programs. I am seeing silkens either with, or has a pedigree with human bite histories, histories of fouling and getting disqualified in LGRA and ASFA being used and linebred upon. All for the sake of speed. I just came back from SilkenFest, and one of these dogs fouled/attacked another dog at the end of the course. His half-sister fouled in LGRA last year as well. It's a pattern that keeps happening yet the appeal of getting #1 or Top 10 is too attractive to some people. You can check the LGRA and NOTRA grading guide for the dogs who have fouled (the column for DQ Career), and ASFA keeps a public DQ list as well.
https://lgra.org/index.php/node/4049
https://www.asfa.org/records/dq.htm
A caveat is that not all dogs who fouls are officially listed as sometimes we do not have enough foul judges to make the call, or the judge didn't see it. We had what I'd say was 3 fouls in ASFA and 1 in LGRA at the silken Nationals, and only 2 fouls in ASFA were noted. Speaking to other competitors and breeders are your best bet, as I am still learning which dogs are questionable.

I was having a pretty bad day today but abhi randomly reel popped up on my insta of this song and den bhai, nostalgia hitting hard 😭 but never the less made me like happy reminding me of old gold days.

But my main concern is bhai ye song p kya dance hua hoga like kya kiya tha bhai maine?🤡💀
Really need to talk to my class teacher regarding this😂
