The trip to Mango's new Home!!!

Last weekend Petra (breeder of Mike and Dylan) and I went to England. On thursday I went to Petra's house in Wijdenes. After a good night sleep,we got in the car and drove to calais. It's about a four hour drive there. Then we took the eurotunnel train to England, for me it was the first time with the tunnel, but I enjoyed it very much. We just had to drive for another few hours to get to the new house of Pam. (the owner of Mango)When I called Pam a few days before, she told me that she was living in the middle of nowhere, she couldn't be more right. But what a beautifull surroundings!!!!! In the backyard there is a big dam. (Clywedog dam) With next to it the remains of an old leadmine.













At the house we also met the hounds of Pam. Theo an Kaysa. The new future friends of Mango.

Petra found it necessary to let Faith, petra's own dog, meet the cows. She's never met any before.











After a little while, we said to Petra that there was a bull comming towards here. So she started to run.



On saturday we visited the Stafford Houndshow. We took 3 dogs with us. Faith, Kaysa and Theo. In front we new that it wasn't going to be our day, but we decided to make a lot of fun on this day.




On the show we met Rosemary Griffiths, with here beautifull Dazzleby foxhounds. She asked me to handle one of here foxhounds in the showingring. So it was my first time on a english show and also the first time to handle a foxhound.









I won Best Puppy and also Best dog, with two of Rosemary's foxhounds.
After showing the foxhounds, the showing of the Hamiltons started.

The last part of the show was the presentation of packs of Hounds. There were 5 packs present. Foxhounds, Basset Artisiens, Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen, Beagles and Blue Mountain Dogs. For me the most beautiful pack was the pack of the foxhounds.







This was the end of the saturday. On sunday after a good English breakfast, we packed up and took one last look at the dam and resevoir and left for home.









Pam Thank you for the wonderful weekend. I've enjoyed it very much. Now I know Mango is also going to a great home.
Rosemary aslo Thanks to you, for the unforgetable experience of showing foxhounds. It was a pleasure to meet you.

Twin brothers

Mango and Dylan are doing the most things on the same way. They realy looked twin brothers.

The Lord, The King and the toy.

The Lord and the King are played the most of the time with the same toy.

When 2 Beagles played with 1 Hamilton you can make beautiful pictures of the played dogs.
