Lure Coursing

We had a ton of fun at North Coast Greyhound Connection's Meet and Greet today. It was the grand opening of the Erie Metroparks Bark Park and we were invited to host an event. This was our first official Meet and Great and Spencer's first event where he could run with the other pups. Boy did he have a blast. We didn't know what his reaction would be but once they started the luring he was darn near the only one squealing, and couldn't wait to take off. He gave us his quick answer. Too funny. Originally we weren't sure if we were going to participate in the event given his history of a broken pelvis and the parvo that's been going around, but we got clearance from Doc and boostered his vaccines to cover all of our bases.

Lily had to stay home given her size and that all greys aren't small dog safe (Lily-sized small dog), but Viking got to participate. He was unable to run with the greys but he got to take part in the lure course. Once again, we weren't sure what he'd do, but he absolutely loved it too. I got to say I was quite impressed by both of our boys. They can run!
