If I had known it was his birthday I would have kissed him on Sunday. Happy Birthday lovely boy.xxxx
I simply love him!
Super video. Bella looks a fit girl in great shape - so happy with that wagging tail. Fab
Lovely, lovely photos - what a pretty girl she is. The one of Lana half looking at the camera is delightful and says so much of her personality to come - I think she will be naughty! Do have fun
Super looking chap and standing so nicely for you. Love the name - have fun

- About Me:
- My first Irish Setter, Penny, came to me via the dog warden in 1987. My boyfriend owned an Irish Setter and thought that I could care for Penny over the Easter holiday until the dog pound could take her. She had been straying for some time and was a very sorry little girl - she never made it to the pound but stayed with me for 10 years. I loved her and when the opportunity came to have a dog in 2001 it was no contest, it had to be an Irish Setter. Jim Parker and I own eight year old Ruby, Lucy 5 and Georgie 2 and a half. Georgie is a reluctant show girl but we make it up to her with long walks in the woods and the beach and holidays in the Lakes and Scotland.

- I just think that Wanda is going to have her hands full. I think that they were with me far too long, they learnt a lot off their mother, and I think me, (when I used to ride horses I had what they called a ''hot seat'' just one of those lovely phrases that mean I can get on any old horse and it becomes a nightmare...sorry about the pun....)
But she will be 'harnessed' eventually, her mother is a real sweetie when she is in a quiet mood. They will learn to live with the sudden outbursts, and I also think that her Farther is a bit of a horror as well, so not all the blame of mum. Ha Ha!!!! All the best Dee and the gang

- Hi there Maggie
She is and always has been 'cheeky' but she will settle down, Findlay is the same, he has now had four days 'by himself' and he is now settled into being a proper puppy now, so there is hope for Robynn/Lana but she would always answer back, but don't you think that you need that little extra sparkle to make a really good show dog??

- Hi there Maggie
I still can't believe that I actually breed them, they have all turned out so beautiful I will probably wake up soon and find that it was all a dream....just keep my fingers crossed that they keep growing in the same way. Thank you so so much for the lovely comment, greatly appreciated..

- Hi Maggie,
Yes I have to say I have loved having a puppy at home . Hopefully will enjoy showing them both . Rafferty was difficult at first but I didn`t know what I was doing so who can blame him. He is great fun to show now , He just loves showing off!! Fergal is growing well lets hope he enjoys it as much as I think that a dog has to enjoy himself to do well. Catch up at LKA.

Thanks for the comment on amy, she was such a character and strong willed, she did not like showing, being trimmed, nails cut and if she could do anythink to make it hard work she would.
I had 3 dogs before her and l was looking to get another one and a friend said get a bitch they are easier LOL,if you bent over looking in a cupboard or sitting she would be on you, once my mum come around and amy got on her leg, we were laughing tears and could not do anythink.
If l was next to Linda Baldry in the ring her lola and amy would try with each other.
I was upset not to get her 3cc we lost her when she was 10 and still miss her.
all the best sue
