Weekend Crowns Mountain

IMG_0121From Thursday afternoon 8 August we were in Crown Mountain where the national coursing of OSS has been held for years. A wonderful location where you can walk well with the hounds. The only downside is that our hounds have something against the terrain; Most do not run well here. This year we had nothing to do officially, but the young stuff had to practise a little bit and we had also agreed that we would cycle a piece with the "puppies". After everything was in place and Sonja had taken her bike from the camper, a round on the terrain test was first cycled. Brandir, Bernice and Silva were exemplary loose along the bike and enjoyed it clearly. They also enjoyed each other again. IMG_0125   On Saturday the show, a good exercise for Bernice, she has occasional cures and also now she didn't want to let herself be groped. Brandir Fortunately has no problems with this. IMG_0145               Bernice's's gang work looks fine, she stretches well and has a nice range but come in and go I hope it still improves greatly. It would be a shame if Sonja can't show her as planned.                IMG_0166IMG_0151                         Of course we had to take a few stationary pictures after the show. Actually they were well fed but the keeper wins. IMG_0190 IMG_0198               And then again fooling. IMG_0208             At the end of the afternoon, Bernice has a small piece of coursing. She did this in full surrender so the next time she can with Picaro, the Galgo of Cis and Annemiek, a piece of course. Hopefully she can run on Ronostrand for her license. Brandir is a different story, he did a lot of fun last year but at the beginning of this year he gained a few negative experiences and now has trouble finding it fun. It is of course a huge egg and sees ghosts everywhere. He still needs a lot of time.   Calhoun and Caintha also showed himself enthusiastically for a piece of coursing and just before they were allowed to start, Calhoun was barking at the hare, but when I let them loose, they looked at each other and stayed standing. When I walked a bit, they went behind the hare and enjoyed the ' kill ', they do it!! However, it is strange that our most hounds are tapping to walk in this area. Something is not up to them.
