2016 in Review
After careful consideration, we decided to train Mako for racing even though he is too tall for official WRA meets. He ran as a DASH dog, though, and seemed to enjoy that role.2014 - 2015 in Review
Mako joined the family in September of 2014. Unfortunately, a leg fracture at six months put his racing career on hold. Taffy was diagnosed with MLO in early 2014 and though she fought a brave battle, we lost her in June 2015.2011 - 2013 in Review
We ran a few weight-graded meets in 2011 before returning to our roots for some lure coursing. Three dogs each brought home a ribbon, and Deuc had a magnificent practice run! On the downside, Rio injured his leg and Bravo later aggravated his gracilis injury. These events helped us make the difficult decision to retire our hounds from future competition. Instead, they enjoyed being spoiled at home!2010 in Review
We were looking forward to a busy 2010 racing season before Bravo's unexpected gracilis injury in May sidelined the crew for awhile. Before that, however, we made our first trip to Jacksonville in February, and our crew had a BLAST running on the sand track!
We took Deuc to the WRA National/NOTRA Derby in New Jersey in July and he rewarded us with Top 10 finishes both days. Rio and Taffy also enjoyed running in the WRA National, while Bravo was (sadely) relegated to the roll of cheerleader.

We were not able to do as much racing as we wanted in 2009 but still had a pretty nice year. In May, Bravo earned the last point needed to complete his ORC title, and Deuc tied for two meet WRA wins in September. We had a fantastic time at the 2009 WRA & NOTRA Nationals.
