Fred and Charlie

Not put any blogs on lately about the troublesome two some! As my dad passed away 19th Dec and things have been rather hectic. Fred enjoyed his xmas presents as usual - he rips them open searching for edible ones, its a great sight to watch and really cheered us up this year! Charlie was more reserved it was only his 2nd xmas and he made me open his presents - hopefully he will learn from fred. Wishing everybody a very late happy new year. Its only the 16th Jan and we had 2 funerals already -… Continue

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO UPLOAD A JPG FILE

I was trying to upload a file with 4 photos which were compressed and the site said to keep the window open.It was still uploading 2hours later.Is this normal.Is it better to just upload a picture at a time and save it to a saved blog for later release when all the pictures have been done.

Can anyone give me a time frame as i cannot have my computer out of action during the day.Do people upload overnight?What is the best way of creating the blog with pictures?

Please help ?

Been gone too long

I've been out of sinc for a while. Got a new rescue, her name is Roxy. She's a Gordon Setter. OK, we can't all be perfection! Anyway, she's a handful. She's tells us when it's time to go out, time to eat, time to come back in, and time to pet her. And she doesn't take no for an answer!! It was kinda funny at first, but then...she's a sweetie, though. Life's just going on down the road around here. Staying busy and watching the dogs grow up. Ya'll stay right in there.

Vilda best obedience Irish setter in Sweden 2009...

Even though she had a great litter of 12 puppies in the summer, we managed to squeeze in three compertitions in the autum.

Not enough to defend her title from 2008 (I thought), but there was no more time and no more competitions close by.

Now that all points are added up it shows that we DID win the title of Best Obedience Setter in Sweden for the second year running!

So lets see about… Continue
