New Additions to the feline family
|
 Jules and I are delighted to welcome our two new Maine Coone kittens and would like to thank Sharon O'Grady the 'fairy godmother' to rescue kittens from the Fl area.
Mia and Priscilla (otherwise known as 'the terrorist') have settled into family life at teamworkdressage. Tufts our other Maine Coon rescue who has been with the family for over a year has taken to playing 'wild' with Priscilla and they are good friends. Mia has settled in well and has overcome her fear of dogs and is able to boss Miffy, Twiggles and Diggles around.
All three cats and three dogs are good friends. |

Farewell Fluffy we know you have gone to a better place but we still miss you very much. Fluffy has taught Tufts all he knows about life and Tufts will pass this information onto Mia and Pricilla. |

Jules competing Welton Molecule, Grand Prix '03
|
| Welton Molecule, (Olly) a seasoned 4-star eventer, owned by Carl Bouckaert, sustained a serious injury at '01 Rolex, and two years later at fifteen years old, Olly was placed with Jules to rehabilitate and train. Olly is an amazing athlete and learned all the movements of the GP in one year, competing with scores in the mid-60%, before returning to his eventing career!
His retirement ceromony at Badmington '07 did not leave a dry eye in the crowd as he passaged and tempi chaged around the stadium. Carl then took off Olly's saddle and handed the reins of this great horse back to his proud breeder, to enjoy a much deserved retirement. |
