So, what is ferret racing?
It is common knowledge to all who are familiar with these little animals that ferrets and tunnels go together like fish and water. With this in mind, the exciting (and increasingly popular) sport of ferret racing was born!
1. The ferrets are released by the handlers into each tube and with speed and agility they navigate the various obstacles set before them (the chicane, the see-saw, the water jump etc.)
2. The racing ferrets must reach the end of the tube and return with
all four feet on the ground outside of the tube before the winner is ceremoniously declared.
The Hants & Berks Ferret Club have a seasoned team of expert handlers and racing ferrets on hand for country shows and corporate events. Come and visit us at a show and cheer for your favourite ferrets!
