Chartpolski ,this bitch must be one of them rare all rounders LOL          

I said on another topic that Lurchers were in danger of splitting into three distinct types; "working", "showing" and "racing". This is allready happening. There are pups advertised as from "Show Winn

why not just get rid of the racing altogether and the bickering and lies will stop.

Yea I was talkin to matt about it on the sunday an he said he noticed it aswell but as albert said its down to the honesty of the owners if there was no cash involved it would of been a different race an I have nothing to hide what I say on here or in person the 1s who raced on saturday have been doing it as long time an will continue if its not stoped

 

Flash,

 

We were criricised on this forum about the prizes for the lurchers and terriers being much poorer than the other sports and so I reacted by bringing them up to a similar level and giving terriers, lurchers and whippets equal status and a similar profile to other sports at our fairs. Believe you me we could have saved several thousands of pounds by not doing this. Unlike other events we put a lot of money back into prizes ourselves as well as seeking good sponsorship.

 

In my opinion it is not the prize value - do we get cheating in clays, gundogs etc - NO! Because for these sports we operate a formal objection system. I

 

t is the fact that for some reason terrier & lurcher people seem to prefer to complain after the event NOT at the event. I made it clear before Shanes that we now have an objecton system in place rather like the KC shows- pay a £20 deposit and make your complaint. If it is upheld you get your £20 back and justice is not only done but seen to be done. If the decision goes the other way and it is not upheld then the £20 is donated to a charity of either the objectors or my choice.

 

This is the system that was in place at Shanes and will be in place at Birr and our 2013 events.

 

No one made a formal complaint of cheating at Shanes Castle or lodged a deposit so therefore we can assume that there was no cheating only allegations of it. However as the system was new if you genuinely think there was cheating I am happy to take the detail of your objection in writing and hold your £20 deposit until I personally can investigate it.

albert,

my feeling towards the weekend are mixed

the showing was excellent, all 3 judges done an excellent job, and i have not heard anyone complaining over the results...

the racing was up setting to see so many people arguing over the breeding of the winners, and im about fed up of the whole sport...

i know you have been very generious towards the lurcher racing and its appreciated among the followers of the shows...

but i cant help feeling that since the prize money was up for grabs, thats when everyone started falling out and bitching among themselves

im sure most of the lurcher owners dont care about prize money and a nice piece of silver ware and a bag of dog meal would be more appreicated...

IS PRIZE MONEY THE PROBLEM?

I said on another topic that Lurchers were in danger of splitting into three distinct types; "working", "showing" and "racing". This is allready happening. There are pups advertised as from "Show Winning Parents", no mention of work ! On K9 website there was a litter advertised, parents were Whippet/Greyhound X Greyhound, and were advertised as "Perfect for Lurcher Racing " !!!! This has got to be to the detriment of what Lurchers are about; WORKING !! Shows and racing were just something of a get together for people with WORKING dogs in the summer, but now, very, VERY few of these Show/Race dogs will have done a decent day or nights graft.

 

Cheers.

bags of nuts were always ample in my day They were called 1/8s and only small Money and constant titles seems to be ruining the game up North it seems :cray:

Id be happy if any of my dogs won anything at a show, dont care about prizes

But a naggin of whisky would be nice or a fancy collar for me dog, I only go to shows to buy a few bits n pieces for me and my mutts and to have a bit of craic... Then to come on here and read all this pathetic bitching.

Spot on that charti, I wouldn't mind seeing a few turns/bends in the lurcher racing, that would separate them accordingly, watch how many end up turning like a boat to get back on the lure to those that semi expect a little jink and stay nce and tight. :thumbs:
