Love the jumper can you buy them or as Camilla asked is it home knitted.I reckon you could do big business with these if they are for sale!! Pup looks good too!!!
I like Sligo in this photo.Do you know what his background blood lines are?
Great action shot of Sligo!!!
I like his head carriage held up scenting the air,he looks lovely.Job well done i say!!
Is'nt it strange how their right ear folds back on itself when they are on point.I have some photos of some of mine doing the same thing!
Who are these two?
What a great photo!
Wendover Truly Fair was a truely lovely bitch,so much so that my Mother asked to buy her from the James's alas to no avail.I would have thought that that would have been a lovely litter sired by Colas as well! have you got progeny descended from him…
Portia once chewed my non doggy friend's silver fox fur and look what she achieved,so maybe this is an indication that he will go far!!!!!!!
He looks very regal Ian! A lovely photo!
He is a new one to me surprised that i hav'nt heard his name before as he looks absolutely beautiful!
Congratulations Eva,Louis has produced some lovely puppies and stock all round the world,of course you should be proud of him,and them! I wish you continued success for the future.

- Hi Colette, Funny the way they lay like that. As I said Louis has done it since he was a puppy. Many of his children do it. They look so strange!!

Susan Stone said… - Hello Colette,
I wonder can you tell me anything about Porschet Wind in the Willows (Marksway Marquis x Porschet Andiamo). Are there working lines behind Andiamo? I could not find any further details.
Could not find any photographs of Nimbus either...
I'm off to Kelso and Reeth first weekend of March:-))
best regards
Susan

- Hello Colette thanks for your comment.
Your question on ft type, they are from USA stock I've seen them racing during horseback trials. The type disappears when crossed with continental European lines.
Yes I agree on Nimbus - there are quite a few awesome Irish setters over there, great variety in bloodlines.

Rhys Dwyer said… - Hello Collette
My stock is also partly based on Clonageera via two dogs separately imported from Pat & Jim a few years ago. We also imported a Thendara dog. Thankyou for your nice comments. It means alot coming from someone with your pedigree in the breed.

- Hi Colette, just checked photos of my puppies and the one you liked the most was no.2 - so Naughty But Nice Diervilla called Winnia now. You can check her new photos on ES in my album. Winnia made also her show debut last weekend in Junior class (they turned 9 months on Dec.1st) and she became Best Of Breed and one of 6 Best Juniors in Show!!!! So good eye you had and I was lucky to keep her :)
