Saturday was a beautiful day for a fox trial in Delmer Seale's pen. The weather was sunny, but not too hot, the foxes were willing to come out and play, and plenty of crossings were scored. There were several young upstarts in the pack and most of them hung with the veterens the entire day. We were all proud of the heart and endurance they had. GBFC Happyrun Zig was on his game and came back with the high score of the day at 580 points. Delmer's pen took a toll on some of the younger hounds' pads so althoug they were qualified to run on Sunday, their owners opted |

to give their feet a rest on Sunday and didn't run them. Sunday at David York's pen brought a couple of different obstacles. It was raining pretty much non-stop, and the foxhounds had run the pen the night before and many of the big hounds were still in the woods as we arrived. No big deal...we helped catch up the remaining foxhounds. We weren't too worried about game...if the foxes were still out, the beagles would find them, and we came to hunt our dogs. We had a start within minutes of casting our dogs and the running lasted the entire trial. Most of the day the dogs ran as one pack, very few were out on their own. It was another good scoring day and GBFC Happyrun Zig was on a streak again. He ended up winning the Sunday trial and the accumulative score over both days for Zig was 885 points - a new record for a CBFTA rial. This also made his 5th win, tied in wins only by long-time Grand Beagle Fox Champions Roy's Falcon (who placed second in this trial) and Zig's uncle, Happyrun Calico Clem, who is currently enjoying his retirement in the soft grasses of Indiana.
A good time was had by all, and we got a welcomed visit from beagler Tim Cassidy on Sunday. We were all glad to see him, and he managed to get some score on the dogs himself. The results are as follows:
