<p>Rhonda, when you showed at The Victoria show, did you watch the other entries' movement, see those that over-reached, & then look at A the way they were shown, and B study the conformation of those dogs to see a physical reason for their movement. The over-reaching may have been the result of the "Bullet Train" speed which appears to be the norm these days in the Setter ring (yes, we have it here in NZ as well!)

<p>Rhonda, when you showed at The Victoria show, did you watch the other entries' movement, see those that over-reached, & then look at A the way they were shown, and B study the conformation of those dogs to see a physical reason for their movement. The over-reaching may have been the result of the "Bullet Train" speed which appears to be the norm these days in the Setter ring (yes, we have it here in NZ as well!) OR was the over-reaching the result of straight front & very over-angulated rear? (also something that has become the norm over here) OR a combination of both - excessive speed if often employed to "muddy the waters" as far as faulty movement is concerned (seen here all the time).</p>
<p>Micro-examination of one fault can lead to ignoring other, much more deleterious, faults. </p>

<p>My comments on over reaching are on page three. The explaination of the Breed Standard by Bill Rasbridge can be found in my posted discussions, easily accessed from my page or you can trawl through the Forum discussions, but that will take an aweful lot longer. There are very many other really good discussions on breed points which you might also find of interest.

<p>Still interested in learning and open to good knowledge about the Irish Setter. Not the type to bow down to personal attacks and posted false impressions about me Eva and Camilla . If you learnt this from previous people that this is the way to behave I am saddened that you did not filter at the time.</p>
<p>Again no discussion of dog movement.</p>

<p>Shame that is what you see when you read the posts. A person who has spent a long time in Irish and has knowledge and experience and uses it to discuss the subject is always wonderful to listen to and read.

<p>Eva read again. The first discourteous comment start with 'Ladies.....' and yes it was yours. I have not called people names, I have not suggested people leave the breed, I have not told people to leave dogs and buy a car. I have however challenged these comments sometimes using humour. I am not blaming any one if I leave the computer to go to work or run the dogs or just live my life.

<p>Eva read again. The first discourteous comment start with 'Ladies.....' and yes it was yours. I have not called people names, I have not suggested people leave the breed, I have not told people to leave dogs and buy a car. I have however challenged these comments sometimes using humour. I am not blaming any one if I leave the computer to go to work or run the dogs or just live my life. Your generalisations and what you believe I think and post and what I believe just amazes me, When you make it personal I have to sit here and think is this what the forum is about. Using your post to defend your self and correcting ideas that people are putting up about who you are.</p>
<p>I am not an authority check the first page. If this is an example of your posts personally I would not like to read other situations where you have attacked the person not commented on the subject matter.</p>
<p>I am sure you would like me to be prancing around saying I am a scholar but I haven't again your words, your imagination coming out in your post. Eva I am not calling any names this is not a sticks and stones situation.</p>
<p>All I am doing is correcting things that you make up about me in your posts and it is really off the subject and very repetitive. Interested in your knowledge about over reaching not your opinions on me.</p>
<p>Where is some discussion on over reaching in your post.</p>

<p>Very true Camilla......we have all been there and after many years in the breed it still manages to surprise us. We never stop learning. We soaked it in, like a sponge.

Then Rhonda, practice what you preach. I recall your comments to me as being far more personally discourteous from the onset. You have also been discourteous to others. You obviously regard yourself as an authority so really and truly is there anything left for you to learn.
