After
many years with lurchers who showed no interest whatsoever in retrieving
anything, Phil and Eileen are delighted that Finnegan has taken so well to
Flyball but not particularly surprised as they can’t mention the word
‘ball’ at home without being mobbed!
The
other lurcher in the family, Billy Bob, is as laid back as his name suggests.
He has been training since a little puppy and is now a leggy greyhound
look-a-like with an intermittent grasp of the rudiments of the sport. However, his main contribution is the extremely vocal support
he provides at tournaments when Finnegan is competing.
Both
dogs require a full team of fielders but, hey, they’re lurchers . . . what do
you expect? Nobody wants them to
slow down!
Finnegan also likes tinkering with cars but the less said about that the better!
