| | Lure Coursing |
| | Lure coursing is a field event designed for sighthound breeds in which a lure (usually a white plastic bag) is attached to a continuous loop pulley system which can be laid out in different patterns over an open field. | | | While lure coursing is not a perfect approximation of open field coursing (a greyhound's historic employment) it is the closest thing available to us here on the East Coast. | | | Open Field Coursing is still an option for many sighthound owners in the Western states where hares are in abundance, and coursing them with hounds is legal. |

| | Lure coursing blankets are the means by which the different hounds in a course are identified by the judge. | | | Lure Coursing is a humane sport which attempts to imitate the coursing of the rabbit or hare by sighthounds but without the hare. | | | Lure interest is the result of a combination of a genetic desire to chase anything that moves (which is probably retention of a puppy behavior phase) combined with training to focus that desire on an artificial plastic bag lure. |

| | Lure coursing equipment is that which is used to create an artificial or mechanical lure (often referred to as "the bunny") which can travel at speeds in excess of 50 mph. | | | Lure coursing is "funnnnn" for the dogs...they do it because they want to run fast and chase an artificial lure...they cannot be forced to chase a lure. | | | Falconers utilize lure coursing equipment to both train and condition their short wing hawks (those raptors that hunt game on the ground) and to perform educational demonstrations of a hawks hunting techniques and flight abilities without sacrificing live game. |

| | ICABS has sent videos explaining how lure or drag coursing works to the Taoiseach, the Tánaiste, the Minister for the Environment, Dick Roche, and to party leaders who have stated their opposition to hare coursing in the past. | | | Lure coursing is practised successfully in Australia, America and in Britain, the ICABS said. | | | According to the ICABS, mechanical lure coursing would not only be less cruel, but would also be more popular with the general public and remove the costs of regulating the sport. |

| | Training for Lure Coursing |
| | Extremely young hounds (those under four months) should not be allowed to run at all at a lure coursing practice, even for the shortest distance; rather, they should be given the opportunity to watch other hounds practice for as long as their attention spans will allow. | | | While my experience in the sport of lure coursing spans a short time (just over nine years), I have been fortunate to have competed all over the country with two very memorable hounds, both of whom are in the ASFA All-Time Top 10 for Irish Wolfhounds. | | | Hopefully with this article, I will be able to translate the secrets to their successes as well as some theories of mine into methods both the novice and experienced lure coursing enthusiast can use to train their respective hounds. |

| | Introduction to Lure Coursing |
| | Lure coursing is a simulation of a rabbit (the lure) in flight from predators (the hounds) who chase after it. | | | Lure coursing clubs put out premium lists prior to the trial containing details on where it is; who the judges are; time of roll call; running order of the breeds; course layouts, as well as official entry forms. | | | Coursing clubs encourage you to let your Sighthound try coursing at a practice to see if he or she enjoys it, and if this is the case, we hope you will become involved to see how much fun you can have by participating. |

| | Lure Coursing Tips and Websites |
| | Lure Coursing Competitions are fun to watch, and designed to preserve and develop the skills that greyhounds and other sighthounds have been bred to have for thousands of years. | | | Lure Coursing Clubs always check their courses to make sure they are as safe as possible but this is a strenuous sport and there is a risk of injury. | | | Lure coursing is similar to the hare coursing of old, minus the rabbit. |

| | CG Article: Lure Training for Beginners |
| | All that is needed to prepare them for lure coursing is to trim their nails, get them physically fit and to determine whether they interfere when run with another dog. | | | The basic rules of lure training are aimed at three goals: to teach the dog to chase the lure on straights; to teach the dog to run turns; to teach the dog to be so intent on the lure that he ignores another dog running with him. | | | The course plan was simple and what the lure operator called “kind.” I wanted to run my youngsters, who had never seen a lure, for their JC titles so that meant we had to get to practices. |

| | After some trial and error, they developed an artificial lure that would enable them to set up an imitation hunt that their dogs could enjoy without risking their safety (there are few wild animals, little rough terrain, and no barbed-wire fencing hazards on the modern day coursing field). | | | Some of the first lure coursing trials were held by the ASFA and were open to Afghans, Borzoi, Greyhounds, Irish Wolfhounds, Salukis, Scottish Deerhounds, and Whippets. | | | The lure is run on cords on the ground and is moved by means of an automobile motor. |
