Thanks Myra....for your nice comments...hope you are all well down there...I expect you are hunkering down for the winter...does it get very cold..???? Take care...Sammi et al..x
Thanks Myra, I am having a relaxing day. Just been sitting out watching the dogs run around the yard on this lovely fresh morning. What a way to start the day! cheers
I see it was pretty cold down south too! We were supposed to drop to 8 overnight, but I don't think it got that cold. Up to 20 today, so just a beautiful day.
Myra, babies are doing fine now although we have had problems with one girl, born as the last one. She wasn't almost moving and she did not want to eat. She just didn't have a strenght to find her mother's nippel. We've tried everything to make her feel better but without any results... She couldn't even take the nippel to her mouth, she didn't drink the substitute milk from the small bottle. Just NOTHING...Finally, close to midnight. I have madethe critical decision to take her to vetarinarian and put her to eternal sleep. I just couldn't wait till morning to see her body without the life...
I was in despair.
At the veterinarian there was a nice VET doctor who cheered me up and said that we will try to "turn her back to normal life". She gave my little girl a glucose drip, warm glucose to drink and put her on the bottle with hat wather, wrapping up with blanket. She toled me that the puppy is cooled (she was born without an amniotic sac) and as log as she will not be warmed up she will not eat. While I was driving back home I was crying (this time I have a shade of hope) and I toled to my little girl, that if she will survive she will stay with us for ever. AND..
...
...now she is one of the strongest among the all our puppies. She has been give a bright green ribbon as a symbol of hope (green is the hope colour). Her name is Ginger. There she is:
Thanks for a hint. Gosh, Edna Everage is a very intriguing person!!! That must have been great party:)))
I like very much "Adventures of Priscilla; Queen of the Desert" - fine film about drag queens with extraordinary dresses and wigs!!!
Yes, we need to see the full team...Marge and you, will you bring her along to Sweden? And ever thought of trying to see what the south looks like?
Guestroom available...with seaview...
Great to see your Dame Edna...just loved it!
And yes Ines is doing well, but feels that she has almost done her bit when it comes to her brood. Laying on a silk-pillow and charging through the garden is more her style than feeding her offspring...but they are huge and fat, so she is doing her bit...but not quite the dedicated setter-style! :-)
Hi Myra...thanks for the nice comment!!! I don't usually manage to get a good action photo of Lola...she usually has her nose to the ground...but the buttercups are so tall now ...she has to jump...Abbi, on the other hand runs about leaping like a deer...hence most of the action shots are of her...!!! Hope you have a wonderful trip to UK...I would wear the outfit if I were you...at Crufts it was sooo difficult to recognise people...!!! take care...Sammi
Hi Myra! I have seen your amazing book collection on your blog. I'd appreciate it if you maybe can recommend me books above dogs especially Irish Setter.
Please sorry for my bad english. All the best for you and your lovely Setters. Barbara

I like that place very much, in fact in that place began my love to that village!

And regarding the weather we have the real heat for last few days but now is a bit colder. And what about the weather in Australia?
Thanks for your birthday wishes.
