It was to celebrate Bailey’s return and to thank everyone who helped look for her while she was missing. We got to meet the lovely couple who found Bailey and looked after her for a few days before she was reunited with her mom, dad and beagle brother, Spencer.

James treated us to a delicious potjie lunch and home-made bread, which was the highlight of most of our lunches – delicious – thank you!!

The beagles had a wonderful time, as usual. Running,chasing, sniffing, barking, howling, swimming, begging for food… all of a beagle’s favourite things to do, rolled up into one afternoon!

Thanks so much to James and Kerry for the lunch and the company… and from ALL of us beagle-huggers… we are so thrilled to have your family back together again! – much love to you guys

FAMILY REUNITED!

Hi everyone!

Kerry and I are EXTREMELY happy to announce that Bailey is HOME safe and sound!!!!!! YAH!!!!!!!

She was found by Bernie and Sheila, a lovely couple in Mayfield Park (roughly near SouthGate shopping mall south of JHB city centre!!!) (have a look for Mayfield park on http://maps.google.co.za/ to get an idea!). I have no idea how Bailey got so far south, but she is definitely a tough little cookie and survivor! Bernie and Sheila were great, they rescued Bailey from between their fence and a neighbouring golf course fence, dipped her for ticks and even fed her garlic polony to ward off Biliary! Bailey even made friends with their two little sausage dogs! She has a few cuts and scratches and is quite skinny, but nothing serious and nothing loads of treats can’t fix! Bailey couldn’t have landed with a better couple! A HUGE thank you to Bernie and Sheila!!!! And thank you to all of you that helped us!!! Kerry and I were truly blown away by everyone’s support, we can’t even begin to express our gratitude!

Please forward this to all your friends to which you forwarded our original “lost dog” email to and all those who helped.

Have a GREAT weekend!!!!!!!

Tail-wagging regards from
James and Kerry and Spencer and Bailey !
