I do hope my son would be interested in continuing shows. If not – I’ll do it myself. My daughter might learn it too. We’ll see. I was expecting a bit more from my son. But I think on his mind now mostly girls.

Hi Inna ~ I was just thinking that too about all of us being here updating at the exact times from such distances. I know you will find a conformation class for Amber and yourself. If the kids are still interested in showing you might want to look into 4-H groups in your area too, that is how I got into showing dogs when I was 12 - I participated for 4yrs and had so much fun. People that I met 20yrs ago are now coming back into my life again through showing Joss. Its amazing to me to see the…

People that I met 20yrs ago are now coming back into my life again through showing Joss. Its amazing to me to see the same faces 15 years later - of course, I grew up and they were already grown so they don't always remember me haha. Apparently most of the things I learned as a kid is no longer so useful; I'm starting from scratch out there and boy am I clutzy!

We did take conformation classes with my other dog (before Amber). I can’t find any classes here for conformation. The place we went has only obedience and agility. Too bad. I must look harder. I know. Thanks for encouraging me. I love our group, even we don’t write here often. Also it’s cool to see that you and Kim are on-line in a same time

Hi Inna ~<br />
<br />
I started 'conformation/handling' classes with Joss last week. Our local club offers them in the spring so you can learn what you need to do ou there in the ring - maybe your area club also offers these? You should try to contact them and see whats available. They are a lot of fun; there are so many dogs! Joss is doing his best and I'm trying to keep up. There is a fun match here in early May - oh gosh only 2wks away - and we are entered.

We are planning to show her. Showing it’s not so complicated (I think). My dream is to find out how we can go to the fields and hunt and run. I still need to meet with more people and ask around. I am up to 1-2 hours of drive. Hope not more. Hard for kids – long trips and for the dog.<br />
Our club doing show here in May. And we also are missing it. I am very upset. But spring just came – lots more shows are on the way. We’ll keep you up to date, Pam.<br />
You remember we talked about puppy pictures?…

That is sooo neat! What a great event. I am thrilled to hear about Amber in the field - she was the best of the litter when we field tested them. Bummer about the national - I would love to see Amber and to meet you guys in person. Are you planning on showing her at all this summer? The national is in Georgia (I think) next year. Pam

Hello, Pam<br />
I have other plans for those days in June. My friends and I organize a guitar song festival in PA. It is another hobby of mine. It’s a big event for 600-700 people for 3 days (June 11-13). I am really upset. I don’t have to even think about Nationals this year. Do you know were it’s planning to be next year?

My family and I went to local even – “All Setter Symposium” last weekend. We loved it! I got 3 lessons of grooming (3 different persons were teaching me). I got almost all tips on video.<br />
But most fun was hunting. Amber did very well. I also have a video, but don’t know how to change a format to place on this site.<br />
We had quails. After all events were over – we went back in to the woods and looked for more birds. I don’t have any pictures – I took only video that day. Need to figure out how to…

Hi All,<br />
<br />
I just got done reading everyone's posts - so good to hear about the gang! We moved into a new house a few weeks ago. We finally got our fence up this last weekend - I now have 2 1/2 acres all fenced in. The dogs ran and ran and ran.... It is so funny - the other 5 dogs will come inside and stay by me but not Rio. If given the opportunity she will stay outside ALL of the time. She chases the birds, stalks whatever varmits she can find, and barks at the nearby horses. She truly LOVES…

I just got done reading everyone's posts - so good to hear about the gang! We moved into a new house a few weeks ago. We finally got our fence up this last weekend - I now have 2 1/2 acres all fenced in. The dogs ran and ran and ran.... It is so funny - the other 5 dogs will come inside and stay by me but not Rio. If given the opportunity she will stay outside ALL of the time. She chases the birds, stalks whatever varmits she can find, and barks at the nearby horses. She truly LOVES being outside. Her first show will be the weekend of June 5th & 6th here in Colorado. We then leave for the National in Wisconsin so she won't get much warm-up. Inna - are you coming to the national this year?? Katie - are you still planning on coming??<br />
<br />
In terms of grooming - these puppies are going to have beautiful coats...once the long puppy coat falls out and the fuzz goes away. Best thing to do is to strip the coat using a "Mars Coat King" - it really helps to pull out the puppy coat.<br />
<br />
Keep in touch,<br />

Oh Ina, Bless you! I can't imagine raising one of these puppies without a yard to play in. Once your fence gets put in you and Amber will be in heaven! I looked out my kitchen window on Saturday and Iz was out in our pasture running laps all by herself, tucking her tail in and spining circles and throwing her stuffed animals up in the air and catching them. Just like a little kid that plays in the sand box all by themselves. She must have run for 15 minutes. I bet obedience classes will help…

I bet obedience classes will help alot if nothig else give Amber something to think about and Hang in there! it's almost summer! Lora
