Talk:Lure coursing
AKC and Mixed Breeds
[edit]It looks like this article needs to be updated. The AKC has announced a new lure coursing event open to all dogs, not just AKC-recognized breeds:
- AKC Canine Partners News Announcment: New AKC Event Allows ALL Dogs to Discover Fun of Lure Coursing
- The American Kennel Club recently created a new event that allows all dogs to discover the excitement of Lure Coursing.
- "The Coursing Ability Test can provide a wonderful community outreach opportunity, an enjoyable experience for dogs and owners and a way to expose a wider audience to the sport, " said AKC's AVP of Performance Events Doug Ljungren. "Most dogs will chase a lure and have fun in the process."
- The Coursing Ability Test (CAT) is for any dog of any breed, including mixed-breeds, as long as it is at least 1 year old and individually registered or listed with AKC.
- To pass the test, a dog running alone must pursue a lure, completing the course with enthusiasm and without interruption within a given time.
- Dogs that pass the CAT three times will earn a Coursing Ability (CA) title. Ten passes and a dog earns a Coursing Ability Advanced (CAA) title, and 25 passes results in a Coursing Ability Excellent (CAX) title.
- Licensed Lure Coursing clubs may hold CATs in conjunction with a licensed Lure Coursing trial or as a standalone event.
- ...
- Nine dogs became the first to earn the CA title on Feb. 25, including the first mixed-breed dog. He is Charlie, a Siberian Husky-Whippet mix, owned by Jan Curry of Columbia, Ky.
This is also noted in ACK Regulations:
- 3. Open to all dogs at least 12 months of age that are individually registered with the AKC, recorded in the FSS program, dogs with PAL numbers or dogs enrolled in the AKC Canine Partners program. Females in season may not enter. A dog may enter only once per event. (An event is defined by an event number.)
