| Daughter and her husband have been longing for another dachshund because they've so enjoyed their chocolate doxie (born Jun-04), so during Thanksgiving week, they went to look at a litter and selected a darling little black and tan girl who told them her name was Nikki. She's from a litter of five born on Oct-20-07. Since the pups weren't quite old enough to go to their new homes, daughter and son-in-law returned to pick her up on Sun-Dec-02. Well...three of the other pups had already left for their new homes and Nikki was going to go home to my daughters' but, gosh, it seemed so sad to leave her little red brother behind. He'd not found a home yet. Well, guess who came home with Nikki? :) His name is Sonny. |

MACY IN COMPETITION
| The purpose of the sport was to test the precision, elegance, and obedience of the army horse on the parade ground; the stamina and courage of the horse in battle; and finally proving the fitness of the horse after the previous difficulties. Composed of three phases, an Event begins with Dressage which tests the horse's discipline, obedience, concentration, and ability to respond to the fine movements of the rider directing the horse to complete very specific movements on the flat at very specific points in a Dressage arena. The horse must be supple, agile, and calm and the rider's directions to the horse via legs, rein movement, and weigh shifting must be nearly inperceptible. Cross Country is composed of a number of solidly built jumping and water obstacles that the horse has never seen before over a large open area. The goal is to complete the course without jumping faults (refusals, run-outs) or time faults (too fast or too slow). The rigorous challenges test the horse's stamina, strength, courage, and jumping ability. The rider must be consumately aware of pacing and options that may be available on course for a successful completion. At the highest levels of Eventing, Roads & Tracks is added to the Cross Country phase. In the third test, the horse and rider compete in a Show Jumping arena with break-away jumps. The horse and rider are to navigate the prescribed course in correct order, without refusals, run-outs, or dropped rails, in the quickest possible time. After the fine refinements of Dressage and the big, bold, exhausting Cross Country course, Show Jumping assures that the horse still has energy and remains supple, accurate and obedient. In Eventing, men and women of all ages compete equally in divisions ranging from Pre-Novice (beginners) through CCI**** International Events (Olympics). |
