The South Devon Hunt welcomed friends old and new on pre-season hound exercise on three consecutive Saturdays in July, two mornings from the Kennels and the third in the evening from Holwell Farm on Dartmoor, courtesy of Mr Dave Reddaway. These proved very popular with dozens in attendance on each occasion, mounted, on the lead rein, on bicycles or on foot. The weather was kind to us, largely, and the events were rounded off with bacon rolls and hot drinks in the mornings, and a beer and burger in the evening. The Masters were particularly pleased to welcome children, newcomers, and a few old faces who’ve been missed in recent seasons. A great time was had by all, and we can’t wait for the trail hunting season to get underway over the coming weeks. Hounds must be exercised every day, so if you have a young or inexperienced horse and would ever like to join us, please contact Joe at the Kennels.
