Congratulations Dee,
What a great family three Irish. I think once you have 2 you stay with 2 for awhile then its only a matter of time before your family starts growing. You should stay on 'Only Two' as now you have taken the quantam leap its onl...
I love irish setters, they have the most beautiful natures. My youngest is the first irish setter ever to have a shunt in her liver. She was diagnosed with an interherpaptic shunt at 18 months of age. She is now 5 and doing well with special diet and management. I live in the Southern Highlands and I love my work, my home and my girls. Without my setters throughout my life I doubt that I would have gotten over all the difficulties I have encountered, their loyalty, their love and their happy disposition always puts a smile on my face and in my heart. My oldest girl is from Ch Brechins Bliss & Ch Eireannmada Mustafa and my youngest from Australian Champion Karnachan Irish Jet Set & Australian Champion Linleymvorne Lady In Red.
Amazing, what a lot we have in common! I loved teaching the little ones, they were always so enthusiatic, really wanted to learn and they came out with such funny things at times.When I retired my life altered completely and I now wonder how I found time to work! Having the boys and discovering the showing side of things has been so enjoyable and I have met so many wonderful like minded people all over the world. You will have noticed when you visited the site that I aim to add as many Irish Setters on there as possible, they don't have to be show setters either, I have many ordinary setters and rescued setters as well as the show setters. I would be more than happy to add your girls as well. I didn't realise that you were a model until I visited your site, expecting to see your girls! But I thought it very apt that you have Irish. I recently came across a quote "Irish Setters are the super models of the canine world.......all lithe limbs and glossy hair."
Best wishes,
Michelle
I love your profile photo and your others are also lovely. So sorry to hear about your youngest being so ill, it is always such a worry, we feel so helpless. But I was delighted to read that she is now 5 years old and doing very well, must be due to the love and care you've given her.
Best wishes,
Michelle
Thanks for writing back. I'm so sorry to hear that Di. What a terrible time you must have been having. No wonder you haven't been here for awhile. These dogs can be such a worry sometimes. Hopefully they have gotten it all and she will be fine. Thinking of you & your lovely girls and sending lots of 'get well wishes your way'.
Lynn, Tess & Megg.
Hi Di, Haven't seen you here on group for awhile. Hope all is o.k.
Was just thinking about you so I thought I'd write. How are your girls doing?? Are you enjoying the cooler weather here now????
Lynn, Tess & Megg.

Thankyou Di. I appreciate your kind words very much.
The horror and devastation here is unbelieveable. So many have lost loved ones, their homes, all their possessions, their beloved animals, wild-life. It just goes on and on. The smell of smoke is everywhere. We are close but are safe. Live in a 'country-ish' area, but not in the country.
My girls, I'm sure, are wondering whatever is happening. They have never had so many cuddles.
Thank again,
Lynn & girls xx
Thankyou so much for your lovely comment Di. It's in a large way due to you that we have Jazz at all.Hope you are all well. Belated wishes for a happy and prosperous new year. Love all the McGlynns.

Take care,
Lynn
