Hot
Diggy Dog!

If
you have been in world long enough, you probably have raced
everything from a
hoverpacks to a buggies, so what's left? Well this
very creative Therian, Malaena, gives
you one more thing to race.
Your best friend, the one who loves you like no other,
your There puppy. The name of the event is Doggie Derby and that is exactly
what it is. Dog owners place their pixilated pups in their respective pens,
the dogs are held there by a glass half wall where they wait, ready and eager
to take off on their owner's command. Owners stand behind the announcer and
when given the go ahead they call their pups. The glass gate is lifted and
off they go. First pup to reach its owner past the finish line wins.
Marcos are permitted and after much testing, levels do not make a
difference. I am an expert dog
handler and Winston75 is avid and he
beat me every time. Does it matter what kind of dog
you have? Well I have three labs and raced each. Molly my first dog that I
have had since beta proved to be much quicker then old Floyd. Floyd does
have issues but that is another article. Someone did race one of those
wiener dogs but I didn't see those little legs
going too fast. Along with the set up
of the Doggie Derby, there are places to sit
and watch so you can enjoy a day at the races.
Malaena
has thought of it all, from a beautiful setting to a fun time.
And who said there are no more
quality events? You can join the Doggie Derby club for event
announcements. Malaena sent me this press release for the next event.
HOW TO RACE A
"DOGGIE DERBY" STAKE RACE
There will be 7
STAKE Races up to the final "Derby Day". A STAKE race consists of 7 races
per one Saturday event. Entry fee of 500t's is required. (Saturdays
beginning July 30th 8:30pm EST at Arenaria Frontierzone)
http://webapps.prod.there.com/funzone/funzone?op=view&id= 142975799
When you arrive at the frontier zone, you will be immediately added to our
zone chat.
Here is where you
will be receiving instructions on when to LOAD your pup, when to GET READY
and stand behind "Rusty", and when to start CALLING your pup. It will look
like this (all caps will be used for announcements):
1. OWNERS PLS LOAD YOUR PUPS (proceed to your post position (gate#) and drop
your pup inside the numbered slot.
2. OWNERS TO THE FINISH LINE (proceed to stand in direct alignment with your
pup's gate behind our trusty rabbit "RUSTY").
3. PLS CALL YOUR PUP (begin calling your pup to 'come, heel or whatever you
feel makes your pup come to you as quickly as possible, and continue to call
until they reach the finish line).
Once all pups are being called, I will lift the starting gate and LET THEM
LOOSE hehe . . . until all dogs have reached their owner.
WINNER will be paid 1k and
announced in the group chat and will proceed to the playground and can NOT
race until the 7th RACE (at which time, all winners of all 6 races will
compete in the 7th Race).
7th Race WINNER will then receive 5k and have his choice of Race #1 POST
Position for next Saturday.
This process is continued for a series of 7 STAKE races (7 Saturdays). The
last and final Saturday stake race will be our "Derby Day" and club email or
club forum posts will be made.
Join us to LET THE DOGS OUT! every Saturday!
A good time to be had
for sure and the puppies seem to have a good time too.
Also available are facilities for the
doggies to play in when they are
not racing.
See you at the races!
