Amanda and I went fox hunting last Saturday. It was the very festive Christmas hunt with Misty Morning Hounds. They run drag hunts; this time it was dragged by a delightful Connemara and her person. Butterball and Henry were both delighted by the whole thing. Butterball had zero idea what to expect initially, but sorted out that you galloped and jumped with friends and then got to stand around and eat (or cuddle with Amanda/Henry). If he could've partaken in the port wine and then champagne/cranberry mixes offered at each stop/rest, he would have.

Ooooh so fun!! It’s kinda nice to do a drag hunt too, a lot of our local clubs are, er, a bit insane haha and so you’re really at the mercy of whatever the day brings. I’d still like to give it a try sometime tho!
ReplyDeleteOMG SO FUN!! The closest I've ever done was a hunter pace, but a drag hunt is on my bucket list.
