Comment by Stevie Keates on September 15, 2013 at 3:51am: He was found in a field in Larissa, Greece with his eye bashed in and genitals kicked in, covered with fleas and lice. Unfortunately the shelter he was taken to, could not save his eye.

Comment by Stevie Keates on September 15, 2013 at 6:26am: I've always been potty over setters and having lost my last dog in May, when I was at the Dogs' Trust Open Day this year, I'd had enough, - there were dogs everywhere, so I went round the stalls asking if anyone had an English Setter. At the Blind Dog Rescue UK stall, I asked, and the rest is history. (http://blinddogrescueuk) Amazing charity set up by Catherine who seems to fund most of it herself.

Comment by Fran Griffin on September 15, 2013 at 12:17pm: Oh poor soul. I am sooooo glad he is with you in a loving home now. Give him a cuddle from me please.

Comment by Stevie Keates on September 15, 2013 at 12:20pm: No problem, . . he's just like a baby and although 1 year olf, can pick him up !! Not sure if he may grow. Watch this space, . . . .
