It was just fun to try it out. |
No harm in practicing untill then! I believe it said that dog breeds are determined to be eligible for this event based on the kind of hunting they have historically done, as well as interest in breed owners to compete. It said that Yorkies did not historically follow their prey into burrows. I bet the little boogers would be good at it! I think mine would. I remember thinking it was a stinking shame.
