Every night for the past week or so Pepper has gone out at 10 pm for a last gallop round the two acre paddock before going into his kennel for the night.

Each night he has retrieved a hedgehog and tonight I took the camera with me just to prove it. Its not a great photo but it was pitch dark and he was coming towards me at quite a pace.

No doubt it will be waddling off now, ready for a repeat performance tomorrow night :roll:

Yay - it's not just Zoods then!!!!

What fun Pepper is having

 

[Moj]

Just as well you don't have a decorative pond in your garden, that's all I'm saying :wink: :lol:

Lovely to see your gorgeous boy Jill, amazing the hedgehog does not hurt Pepper's mount and the hedgehog lives to waddle another night, until Pepper brings him to you again

V impressive - amazed you got a photo at all - I would have been backing off rapidly with all those prickles being brought to me at full pelt!

Hedgehogs have been responsible for the digging up of our garden: they don't do it, but the dogs do! Ours don't retrieve them, but scratch round them as the poor things curl up into a ball, sending turf flying. I can always tell if there are hedgehogs around when I let the dogs out last thing: there's a high pitched bark which is reserved just for them!

lol ouch! Hedgehogs.... why can't they just share the hedge?

 

[_Sam_]

:lol: it must take the poor hog ages to waddle back down your paddock to get back to where he started! :lol:

or maybe pepper just saves him a walk each night on the way home! :lol:

Not the brightest bulb in the pack then, eh Jill. :wink: :lol: :lol:

I love Hedgehogs and miss seeing them trudling about these days.

 

[Ettinsmoor]

Well John I'm not sure Andrew would agree on that one!!

Jules - we are not allowed to have bright light bulbs anymore are we? :?
