Ele is a real fan of dogs- even having dog paw prints tattooed on her shoulder- she has
five pet dogs at home- a Border Terrier, two Greyhounds (That she raced and won 17 races and 14 races with) and 2 Border
Collies.
She is Chairman of Bromsgrove Dog Training Club, competing at agility with her dogs.
Having qualified
as an Instructor for the Agility Club, Ele Teaches agility and also Judges at Kennel Club Shows.
A few years ago
as Lady Captain of the Golf Club she raised
£5200-00 for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, which is enough to
sponsor a dog for its whole working life.
With a Veterinary Nurse background , running a Boarding Kennels is a dream
realised.
Ele now has her own riding horse Titch who is far from it at 16 hh 2 !!
A keen horse
rider in his younger days, Stephen also trained point-to pointers and bred Jack Russels and Wilma
seen here is the last of the line.She sadly died December 2008, but had lived a happy life!
Moving to Meadowcroft
made him keen to rekindle his love of horses and possibly breed some more Jack Russels. He now has 2 point to point horses
in training here and Coco the Shetland Pony cross for company.We have an all weather gallop for the horses to train on in
the mornings. The big lad- TC give the girls a welcome snort over the stable door in the mornings, and the very
handsome Ben graces the yard with his prescence.Stephen has had a very successful season with a win and many places.
