Just wanted to share to all:) My other half (Hudsons Dad) finally took his big boy out hunting today! Teddy coped well , just a bit too slow, poor boy been left behind, as he isn't the fastest one:) Went out with Sandhurst Drag Hunt @Stokbridge in Tiford, nice sandy gallops, what else can you wish for your first day out hunting! Enjoy some pictures.
P.S.Ted is purebred Belgian Draught! Probably first one to go hunting:)

Others on the hunting field found him irresistible to hug:) He is very big, and very cute, if you can say this about such a giant! My hubby calls him "My Little Pony":) I think by the end he finally understood what its all about:) We will see next time( well, i'm going out next time, thats for sure!)Mean next time they'they'll go hunting:)

Stunning 'pony'!! These bigguns are more versatile than people give them credit for. My 'pony' likes to pop a log or two in the woods but he's not been allowed since surgery on his hoof (he's a Clydesdale).

My mate takes her Suffolk Punch hunting and she's a superstar and loves it and I know a few Clydesdales who do cross country. Amazing really as new people on my yard are often surprised that Tommy can indeed canter and gallop (sorry bit sarcastic that last bit lol).

Oh yes, i do understand!!! My hubby posted here ages ago, he galloped alongside the Tour of Britain, and people were very surprised how quickly Teddy can shift!

There it is!!

I'd defo love a go on Teddy, bet he's the comfiest hunter around- like sitting on a giant teddy/rocking horse!

Not sure too many men out hunting can pull off clipped hearts, but think Teddy and your OH can! Lol

I'm looking forward to more Teddy hunting pics soon :)

He's not built for speed (neither am I!) but they both look like they had a lovely time so who cares! Those legs - looks like about 20 in of bone to me! Love him.
