Our A-litter puppies are starting to look like adult dogs. Boo and Lyyli were photographed just before turning 11 months. Lyyli looks just like her mother Tessa (FIN JW-06 Kerrylaw's Countesse). All in all, they're such lovely youngsters.

Adder Bite in February

Just a word of warning to other setter owners, my nine year old Irish was bitten by an Adder last weekend. She spent several hours at the vets, fighting for her life. It has taken a week for the swelling to disappear & she still has a slight cough.
Take care whilst out walking in this changeable weather.
