"
Even more than the classes that we take at Courteous Canine, Inc., which we love, we believe in what you are doing. You have a powerful vision."
--Susan B.
Lure coursing is a humane sport that makes use of a lure—usually a plastic bag, that is pulled by a motor around a course of pulleys. If you are interested in seeing a video of dogs lure coursing at Courteous Canine, Inc go to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOv7JeO8GI8&feature=youtu.be
