She's a vet magnet. Hope Laragh improves quickly.
Yup 😅💸💸💸
I love nothing more than getting the view from behind Laragh’s ears ❤️ I hope it’s nothing serious and that she heals quickly !!!
Me too, I’ll miss the view 🥲
"Lara will ½you just trot!, Everybody else is trotting" Lara:"Yeah, well everybody else is wrong!"
Literally 😂
So cute, Bonnie in the background trying to see out of her stable. Laragh reminds me of my favorite horse, will go all day and will not let an injury stop them. Speedy recovery Laragh.
I love that you spend your spare time essentially hunting your boyfriend 😂
My favourite pastime 😈
Thanks for taking us along for the ride - great fun! Hope Laragh's injury is minor & heals soon…
Thank you 🙏
I do love her canter snorts 🥰. I hope she makes a full recovery 🙏 what a fun time she was having to!
Everyone in the entire field can hear us coming 😂 Thanks for watching 🙏
@@footluceeventing😂❤
Oh no hope Lara recovers quickly 😢 was all going so well! Hats off to the runners that’s no easy task!
She LOVES being at the front! I’m glad she had such a great time before her injury. Hope she gets better quickly!❤
Thank you for watching 🙏
Too bad about Laragh's injury! Hopefully she recovers soon. I loved seeing you follow the hounds so closely and the interactions with them. I'm a fairly new watcher, a former anxious horse school rider so hunting is something I could never dream of doing. It's wonderful to see it like this!
I really love watching the hounds, they’re really special! Thanks so much for watching 🙏
Oh Laragh - hoping for good news with a quick recovery - you spirited wonderful lass.
Nothing like the sound of hounds pure magic
Hope she’s doing better thanks for bringing us along❤
Lara is such a power house she just keeps on going! ❤
She would literally never stop if I didn’t take a pull 😂
Oh poor Laragh, she doesn't have much luck does she, bless her. I really hope it's nothing too serious though and she makes a speedy recovery from it Lucy! It looked like you were having a great time out there too until that happened. Hope the damage to the front of your friend's horsebox wasn't too bad either hun. Have a great week and take care Lucy! ❤🥰
She is a bit accident prone at the moment 😅 Thanks so much for watching 💙
I remember attending hunting runs with my husband who trained and cared for his landlord's horses. High-spirited people on high-spirited horses they DID'NT necessarily ride regularly. (one could tell by watching who did, and did not, self-train their horses) The horses were fine, occasionally the people fared somewhat worse. We took them over the courses with the farm dogs trailing behind. LOL The dogs started getting into it, but we had to assure them....we weren't doing that. Dry Run. We're cosplaying as hunters. Sad dogs. They wanted to cosplay as hounds. Some of the ex-racehorses took CLOSING very personally; took a lot of work to get them to not focus on beating each other. GROUP activity Thank you for pulling her up when you felt her gait was off. They'd rather keep going, many of them. NICE footage!
Thanks Lucy. I wish Laragh a speedy recovery xx
💙
Great hound work n video. Lara was doing so well. Get better quick

Fingers crossed for Laragh xx
We were definitely there I think xx😊
Oh no i hope Laragh is ok, it was a awesome ride! Keep us up to date on how she is, i hope it goes down soon.
There will be an update vlog live this week 💙
Laragh looks like she loved it! Fingers crossed for her leg.
💙💙
🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 for Laragh - hope it’s just a little soreness that will work out. 😊
Hope Lara is alright :). Good catch noticing she was off 👍
Thank you 🙏
Shame there are bits cut out, it be nice to have the whole thing.. even the quiet moments. .. I can’t ride at the moment but used to enjoy an odd hunt meet in my late teenage years. The ditches were my favorite.. luckily my Irish draugh cross horse was very brave enough, there was always some horses that weren’t so much. To be continued.. I wish Lara a speedy recovery.. ❤️🩹.
8:02 "turrrot turrrrot"⭐💅
i love it its not like that tho
20:13 Look😮 merrylegs poking her head out in the background 😂😂😂😂❤❤❤
Thank you for explaining the rules of the hunt and how it all works. Usually we don't see a lot of the hounds as you are not up front, so it was good to see them and be up front with you. I have to say that poor Forest looked a bit knackered half way through!! Sorry about Laragh, let's hope it's just a minor thing and that she's back to normal quickly.
Thanks for watching! Yes bless Forest he was a little tired, it was only his second day on the job, he actually got taken back after the second line in the Land Rover 😂 Thanks for watching 🙏
@@footluceeventing Oh, bless him. Hopefully his stamina will improve!
Hope Laragh will be ok.🙏
I 100% agree with putting her out. Stalling is completely unnatural for horses and the best thing for most injuries is turnout. Horses turned out most/all the time tend not to tear around and be nuts--that's just horses who are stalled way too much.
She is still crazy after hunting, she was very happy to be turned out with a big pile of hay 💙
what a great hunt just lovely! u should put some DMSO (20%) and diluted Balls solution (40%) mixed with distilled water (30%) and rubbing alcohol (10%) in a spray bottle and after u cold hose ur horses leg spray this over the spot quite liberally where its swollen and dont wrap or rub it in...and turn out ur horse like usual...this helps tremendously! =) u can cold hose again when u like and respray the solution on twice a day unless ur horse is sensitive...then dilute the Balls solution to 20% with more water...hope u do well ! i used to train endurance and race horses when i was younger ,
Ooh dear , yes she was going super, it somtimes happens like that,from persoal experiance, hope allls well , and ytour ride on Embber is ok , may be in the arena ,CIRCLING
Bugger about Laragh's injurym she looked like she was enjoying herself being upfront with the hounds and Charlie. Fingers crossed for a speedy recovery, and Laragh is back out doing what she loves!! Also, did Rob enjoy being a runner for the bloodhounds?
She was loving it 🥲 And yes Rob loves it too, so it’s a win win!
Hope all goes well.
At least you caught it when it happened, hopefully minimizing the injury..
Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 😰
Lucy, Justine & Charlie, Have a few questions from my non horsey husband that I can't answer. #1. What if the Huntsman directs the Whip/whipper-in to overtake him for whatever reason. Will that go against hunting protocol? #2. What if something dreadful happens to the Huntsman, who takes over? If so, how does the rest of the Hunt know that someone else is now in charge? #3. Over here with foxhunting there are flights, such as 1,2 and 3 depending on the riding skills. Does that apply with Bloodhound hunting? #4. For non-jumpers we do Hilltopping. Not necessarily on hills, just not doing jumps. Does that apply with Bloodhound hunting? Again, I can't answer these questions for Hubby but hope you can. Loved the video and hope Laragh Lee recovers fast.
No one is allowed to ride ahead of the master of the hunt, all the other riders have to stay behind the master of the hunt.
Thanks for the questions! Here’s my answers: 1. As long as the huntsman gives directions, then you can overtake him. For example, Charlie asked me to go up ahead at one stage and push the hounds over closer onto the line, which I did, then I hung back to let him go ahead of me. 2. In the event that something like that happens mid-hunt, *touch wood it doesn’t’!* then I guess the whips would take the hounds home, as I’m not sure it would carry on. I’ll need to clarify that though! 3. I’m not really sure what you mean by flights as never heard of the phrase, but I’m guessing you’re reffing to the difficulty of the line(?) As a rule you have to be a capable rider and aware of your horse/ other people so that everybody stays safe. The country is lovely, with great ground and all the jumps are optional 😊 That also kind of answers the last question too! Thanks for watching 🙏
Lucy, Thank you so much for getting back to me and my non-horsey husband on his questions. I think if something dreadful happened to the Huntsman then the hunt would be stopped and like you say the Whips get the hounds back to the trailer while others seek help for the Huntsman. Something similar happened to me many, many moons ago on a hack. Horses & ponies were spooked and flighty afterwards. For some reason the horse I was riding (the sweetest Welsh Cob you can imagine) kicked out at a mare, missed and totally smashed in the rider's kneecap. Need I say more? The rider was escorted to the nearest pub to get an ambulance (the days of no mobile phones & in the middle of nowhere for an ambulance to get to) while the rest of us headed back to the stables. In regard to flights, I think it is best said that a very large hunt (normally on the opening meet of the season) split people into groups. First flight adults, second flight kids on ponies. You would be mad to hunt not being a capable rider though there are some out there and unfortunately are the ones that can cause problems from my experience. Safety is Rule # 1 as far as I'm concerned. Once again, many thanks for replying and perhaps a Vlog in the future might be with Charlie and or Justine to explain Hunting Etiquette etcetera.@@footluceeventing
came for instagram asap when I saw the news about laragh… hope she is alright ❤️
Thank you 🙏 I’m posting an update vlog this week ❤️🩹
ik i keep comenting and you nearly 100% dont care but you just gained a follower 😌
Have you tried magic cushion?! It’s a miracle! Hugs for em, bon, Zac, and laragh❤
No I have no idea what that is! Thanks for watching 💙🙏
Was that Holkham Hall? How do you stop the hounds chasing all the deer?! 😱 FENTON!!!!
Great hunt - crap ending though! Get well soon Laragh. xOx
I love your hunting vlogs
I was there trying to watch the hunt xx
Seriously hoping that Laragh gets well soon.
Laragh 🥰 loves it, you should take Ember next time for our entertainment value 🤣
I hope laragh recovers quickly. Thank you for explaining more. Out of interest what would happen if the hounds got the scent of a rabbit or an actual fox?
So they’re really only trained to hunt the scent of a person, but if they did get another scent that would take them off the line, our job as the whips is to guide them back on track. So basically as long as we’re doing our jobs properly it’s all ok!
What a shame. I thought she was going really well and not quite as excited as usual. Hope it's just a muscle tweak and she recovers fast.
She was going so well, it’s really a big shame! Thanks for watching 🙏
Hi both, I love laragh ,she looks such fun ,AND it's ALL WAYS SUCH FUN .TAKE CARE ALL, AND HAVE A GOOD DAY .LOVE SEEING YOU ALL, OUT HUNTING .😄😄😄😄😄👍👍👍👍👍🐶🐶🐶
oh yea💥👍
Is it taboo to wear a body protector/ air vest for hunting? I've been watching your hunting videos for a while and have never seen anyone wear them. Just curious to know, since I don't know anything about hunting
No not at all! There are several people that wear them, I just don’t personally as it doesn’t fit over my hunt coat 😂
Well that was fun, going on a hunt, on a very lively mount!! I'm so sorry she hurt herself. Would have liked to have seen the swelling so I can "armchair-vet diagnose." Easy enough to have landed wrong a couple times with all that galloping, and hopefully just over extended; and will be all better with the hosing (and I, personally might bandage with Up-tite ) Hopefully nothing serious!
thats a beautiful horse🤩 (horses)
Here's a silly query: When you're out hunting and traversing various terrains, do you use studs? Or what do you prefer for maintaining traction, if any?
No such thing as silly queries! I don’t use studs, in fact I’m not sure anyone does (I may be wrong!) because the ground is generally very good, if anything there’s just a slight bit of mud so as long as you don’t wang it round corners then all should be ok 😅
@@footluceeventing Thank you for your response. It's interesting how here on the West Coast of the U.S., we've become so soft that we use studs on grass even for a 3-foot hunter course consisting of 8 fences. 🫣
You must be so fit! No covets to rest!😂
Hunting with the hounds is fun! I hope Laragh will be ok? Its always something with horses. Great Video Lucy!! xxxx
I’m posting an update vlog this week ❤️🩹
@@footluceeventing ok cool! no rush. Take your time. xxx❤❤
Just watching now, hope whatever she’s done is just a tweak! I hunt with a Foxhound pack, how many miles do you typically cover with bloodhounds a day? X
About 14-17 miles on average
@@justinewardeventingWowzers! I bet you’re exhausted after a day out! X
What she said 😂
🍀🍀✨🤞 Wish Wish Wish Wish Laragh stop hurting leggies please and she behaved soooo well awwww ❤❤❤ Best Best Best wishes 🥰🥰😘
She loves to worry me! Thanks for watching 🙏
Oh Laragh! So sorry about that. 😞 Do you think you can ever convince Meg to come out hunting with you on Zach?
I hope so, I think she’d have a great time!
Wow, I’d imagine it’d take a lot of training to get your horses to be so relaxed with that many dogs around 😮 (don’t own horses so not an expert)
18:50 DOGS AND HORSES UNIGHT!
Hunting isn't big in Sweden, so this might be a weird question, but I was thinking regarding the same (?) dog that got behind a few times. Is it possible for one of the wips to just stay back with that dog/not follow the rest of the day/hunt? I don't know why it wasn't keeping up, I'm not even sure it was the same dog, but I was just wondering if you need a certain amount of dogs to be able to hunt.
Good question! So there were two hounds that weren’t keeping up as well as the others, so there was always a whip making sure they were still on the line/ ok. After the second line they actually both got picked up and taken back in the land rover to rest! We still had 9 hounds hunting which is plenty 😊 Thanks for watching 🙏
@@footluceeventing Thank you for the quick response :D
Had an Idea bout Ember , can you get hold of Cam ,or Simon , To help restart
Take a shot every time you say steady 🫣😂
🥴🥴😵💫😅
The brown horse in the background that was in front of your horse the owner was holding out one of those like whips that they used to use back in the day😢😅
I hope she’s OK. This is not limping.
She didn't even show any footage of her walking after she was lame so not sure how you've managed to come to that conclusion 😂
18:47
tho were you stressed cause it sounded like you were stressed but also calm at the same time??
I think there but idk
💕🦄💕🦄💕🦄💕🦄
What a shame about Lara. She was going so well too!
She’s a machine! What a girl 😍 Hope she is fighting for again soon 🤍❤️🩹
She is pretty unstoppable! Thanks so much 🙏
Isn’t this illegal or is it another type of fox hunting ?
Have you got one of those mouth bridles on?
Why is she really bothered by her bit?? What did you find out w her? ❤🐎❤️
Oh gosh I dont think i'd surive a proper hunt. In my area (eastern USA) we do have fox hunts (although these days you're after coyotes more than foxes and we just chase the foxes (some places will kill the coyotes since they're so overpopulated) but they're very casual hunts.
What a shame, wish Laragh well.
💙
Poor girl, nothing like having a smashing day out ruined by coming up a bit lame. I hope its nothing time and treatment won't fix.
Thanks for watching 💙🙏
That poor pony wants to come out…😢
I can’t see what happened? Sorry
