Lure Coursing: Eligible sighthound breeds can compete
in lure coursing events that measure their speed, endurance and agility in chasing a mechanized lure.
The American Sighthound Field Association
sponsors lure coursing events, the Australian Shepherd Club of America and the United States Border Collie Club conduct herding trials for their breeds, and the North American Versatile Hunting Dog Association conducts hunting tests and trials for several sporting breeds.
However, due to versatility, this breed is often seen in professional dog shows or participating
in lure coursing events.
At the top of the page are links to our other websites - All Creatures Photography (for all photographs taken
at lure coursing events) and Raw Dog Ranch (for information on feeding your dog a natural diet).
Along with hunting by sight, the Saluki is often used in professional dog shows and
lure coursing events.
Our members are involved in all areas of the sport of dogs; showing dogs in conformation exhibition, obedience and rally competition,
lure coursing events, breeding, training and therapy dog visitations.
All - breed clubs may also be eligible to hold obedience trials, tracking tests, agility trials, herding events,
lure coursing events and hunting tests.
