Friday, August 17th, 2007Shelley is my daughters Jack Russell terrier, small, brown and white
approx 8yrs old.
Wednesday night after the show Jumping Competition and quick visit to the pub (Judging show Jumping is quite stressful, even though I didnt do any judging wednesday cause my daughter took over, leaving me to socialise but that can be stressful too hence visit too pub) I arrived home at about midnight noticed Shelley wasn’t around Looked outside and upstairs just in case but couldnt find her, assumed I’d locked her in the office when feeding cats earlier. So I thought she’d be ok till morning (Comfortable chairs, warm and cat food) Thursday was a busy day (see show jumping) and at lunchtime I realised she hadnt been in the office and still no one had seen her. Did a search of premises still no sign. By 3pm the kids off the yard had organised search parties and were now searching the woodland, fields and local area, on one occasion thinking they could hear some faint yapping but could find nothing. Approx 4pm Shelley arrived home tangled in a home made wire fox trap. She must have been trapped in it for 24hours and if she hadn’t managed to pull the whole thing free I’ve no doubt she would have slowly starved to death. As it is she is ok very tired and hungry and some wounds around where she was trapped but not too bad. These things are barbaric and will kill anything caught in them AND THEY SAY FOX HUNTING IS CRUEL

Show Jumping
Thursday, August 16th, 2007Well today saw another Show jumping competition for the riding school clients, unfortunately not as busy as it sometimes is as a lot are away on holidays. It took as long as usual though as the staff and helpers seemed to be in a rather laid back mood, obviously no sense of urgency. The show jumping is a popular competition for kids to pick a pony (with a little guidance as some seem to have high expectations of what they can ride) and enter a competition and maybe win a rosette. No one fell off today except Leigh (staff) who managed to catapult through the air and land on his feet, yet again. He is willing to give lessons on that technique. The bareback jumping is always fun but I really think more adults should give it a go. Any thoughts or ideas on the day let me know.
