What is Lure Coursing?

Lure Coursing is a dog sport that tests the dogs chasing instinct by having them pursued a mechanical, high-speed lure across an open field.

How it works

The Lure: white plastic bags are tied to continuous nylon string.
The string is threaded around a pulley and driven by a remote controlled motor-operated machine.

What breeds can do Lure Coursing?

Lure coursing is open to all breeds pure-bred or mixed breed, small or large breeds that love to run and chase.

What age should my dog be to do Lure Coursing?

You can start after 12 months of age, however 6 to 12 months can do a short puppy run.

When can we try Lure Coursing?

From Gympie scent work trial. Some members' successes.

22/10/2026

The scent work group put on another successful scent work trial on Saturday the 5th of September thanks to the hard work of members, some wonderful volunteers, our enthusiastic entrants and of course, our wonderful, fabulous dedicated judges: Mike Jeavons, Emily Brunning and Kelly-Ann Gunnis.
The judges were fair and made each search area appropriately challenging for the class level. They gave their time and shared their knowledge with us giving us tips on scent work training, how we could better use the venue and overall better trial planning.

Gympie scent work members thank everyone involved with the trial. We especially thank the judges for giving up their time to come and make our trial a success.
With much appreciation, thank you Emily, Kellie- Ann and Mike.
