It's a real pain, not to mention VERY unsafe for not only the dog concerned, but anybody else who happens to be in the way when the dog decides to make a "run for it". I have heard of a dog that broke its neck running into a fence at Palmy track when he slipped his collar. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tryagain 74 Report post Posted September 17, 2016 Really !! ., why don't you stick to your knitting? what about the pups that injured themselves running around your own back yard.? Not to mention the scratchings and stand downs your own team endure. ?

GOM 1,017 Report post Posted September 18, 2016 I cannot remeber the last time I saw this happen at a meeting at Waikato or Auckland so no problem up here. Probably more professional attitude in the North. alltheway!!! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alltheway!!! 640 Report post Posted September 18, 2016 $50 fine isnt it? Seems like we are back to rules for some and rules for others. Another person from the same Kennel apparently had a go at the lure driver on friday night because one of their family members dogs beat his dog which was favourite. Why was this not mentioned in the stipes report yet the track curiators incident was (whom I might add does not actually have to follow the rules of the NZGRA as he would not be a licensed person). come on ref 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, well i'm not sure if you have experienced yourself walking down that hill at Manawatu by experience its not the safest even for handlers.. i was there the day that dog broke its neck at the gate before the races and going downhill they will always pick up speed and will find it very difficult to stop obviously. Their have been a number of dogs that have slipped the collars for some unknown reason hit the gate cleared to run and have gone onto win.
