We always reply to inquiries about adopting our Greyounds.
At Bexata, we believe if the dog is sound and loves to chase, then lure coursing field trials may be the answer.
We haven't run since April due to Hurricane Harvey shutting down events and other situations that caused clubs to cancel or other weather situations. We also don't go up to McKinney any longer as the fields are just too hard on my Greyhounds' feet.
BOWEN RANKINGS 2018 END OF THE YEAR
FC BEXATA DAISY, SC IS NO. 2 LURE COURSING GREYHOUND IN THE COUNTRY - BEXATA DONNA SC FINISHED OUT THE YEAR NO. 9
WE HAD SIX OF THE TOP 15 LURE COURSING GREYHOUNDS 2018
HERE'S THE TOP THREE FOR 2018
So, here are the rankings for top lure coursers as of September 2018
Bexata Daisy, Ranger's Stripes, Bexata Donna, Blacky Girl, are available for adoption. Misty was adopted earlier in September. You can see her under adopted Greyhounds. Blackish (not ranked) was also adopted. Very proud of Bexata Greyhounds.
November 11, 2017 While Black Velvet was not running, we took out some new youngsters to get qualified to run in the trial. It was a blast except that the ground was hard on the Greyhounds' feet. Nothing like the sand and coastal grasses they have at home. Nevertheless, Daisy was really in her element and won the 5 point major, starting her on her Field Championship. She is available for adoption - loves the couch, too - but will be out again if she's not yet adopted.
This is the last update for rankings from 2017 - the last time Black Velvet ran. In Texas, we have a short lure coursing season, and, because of Hurricane Harvey, at least one of the lure coursing events was cancelled. So, as of June 2017, Black Velvet was on her fourth year as AKC lure coursing Greyhound No. 1. So, that would be her fourth year in a row.
THE FINAL RANKINGS FOR 2016 FROM THE AMERICAN KENNEL CLUB.
December 31, 2016
We decided to do one more event for 2016
We had California competition, Mike and Ellen brought their lovely Pearl and Delphi.
Unfortunately, Black Velvet and Louella Mae collided on the field and Blacky got a stone burn in his pad, so they were all pulled. Regardless, good runs were had and a lot of fun way to end 2016.
Here's the score sheet from the Dec. 31, 2016 Cirneco del 'etna Club lure coursing event at Waller, Tx.
Best of Breed went to Diamond
My kids and my adopter's Greyhounds have quite a collection of ribbons, but I only put up the last two events of 2016.
December 17-18, 2016 Houston Area Hound Association lure coursing event.
Will post scores and final year results when they are posted.
In the meantime: Bexata Louella Mae won a four point major to finish her Field Championship.
Blacky won Best of Breed Saturday (didn't fun BIF) He won BOB again on Sunday and ran for Best in Field AND - DRUM ROLL PLEASE -
BEST IN FIELD went to Field Champion Blacky

Field trials - Alamo Area Whippet Club lure coursing event at Cat Springs, TX May 17-18, 2014
Another great weekend lure coursing with lots of friends and adopters from the Bexata family.
The lovely Dalphina finished her Field Championship. Check out this link to the Cat Spring Alamo Area Whippet Club Ray Woods Challenge Trophy weekend May 17-18, 2014. At Bexata we believe that the Greyhounds, although not track eligible, can go out and enjoy running. The ranch was beautiful, weather was perfect, and the dogs run with the joy of life they have within them. Friendship and comeraderie abounded and we all had a great time. It was a perfect way to end the lure coursing season in South Texas.
When the Greyhounds come home, they can be couch and bed warmers, but the weekend was for the pure joy of running. Click the link to see the album. Dalphina has been adopted, but many of the other Greyhounds pictured are available for adoption and we have more and individual pictures on our Available Greyhounds page.

Leon and Mister are two new young boys at Bexata. They are neutered and ready for their new homes. Took them lure coursing practice today November 17, 2013 and they showed a lot of promise. Here they are enjoying the morning at practice. They are on the Available Greyhounds page and are up for adoption.
November 23 and 24, 2013 Leon and Mister QC'd (qualified) to lure course in trials. Here are the scores followed by pictures. The boys were amazing and handled everything as if they had always been lure coursing. Available for adoption - Bexata Pork Chops, Bexata Leon, Bexata Mister, Bexata Lady Love, great lure coursing enthusiasts and great friends and companions. They will run the field or grace your bed or couch. Just because they chase a lure does not mean they are so prey driven as to chase anything that moves.
