    Hello Johanna, thank you for the comment on my blog.
    It was first thought to be joint-ill (swedish = fölsjuka).
    So they rinsed out the joint and took all sorts of test, gave her plasma etc. So it was 99% certain that it was just a general infection due to....well that is just about anybodys guess. But Ivy was found to have an infected uterus so there is a guess that this had something to do with it.

    Hi Johanna, thank you for your nice comments ! Yes, the time is going so fast and at 4 months, he is not anymore a little dog ! I don't know how he will look later when he will be adult, I can just guess but I hope he will be splendid like your Jedi, what a gorgeous Irish setter !

    Hi Johanna, thank you for your message, I just saw now your new photos, they are really great¨. So you have the sister of my Xuberance named Lucky ... Your Saimi she is the sister of Lola ? That's nice to see each others growing, brothers and sisters. From this litter, I know Xcaliber (Reggie), Lola and Saimi ... I miss few other brothers, I don't know if they have a page on this site ?
    Congratulation, Saimi she's really beautiful and so elegant, she has a long neck as I like ... How do you do to make her standing up like this, you should train her few times per day. You made a good job ! you should tell me how you do it ? Lucky sometimes is too lazy, and prefers to lay down.
    Cheers,
    Jean-Luc
  • sammi pease

    Thanks for the reminder...Saimi looks lovely...it's great to see the 'family' growing up...as Jean-Luc says....nice to keep in touch...wish I could get a good pic of Lola standing ...but she wriggles about so much...constantly looking for mischief...she nearly had my breakfast this morning...!!

    Hi Johanna,
    Hartsbourne Hyacinth was bred by Sybil Lennox. She is by Kylenoe Crystal Bear out of Heronswake Rennaissance. She now is owned by Steve Lennox and Wendy Morley shows her. I am one of the few in the UK who still have some of the Hartsbourne/Brackenfield stock at home. (Anacardium Elixir who got 4th in post grad dog is one of them)
  • Jenny Ronnebro

    Hello Johanna and thanks for your comment! Yes I have change my last name or going to do it :) It will be "Ronnebro" now. But I must say it feels the same as before! I hope all of you are doing fine and looking forward to see some photos of your new girl!
  • Jenny Ronnebro

    Congratulations Johanna! I am so happy for you and your family! Wish you all the best. will you find out the sex? I had alook at Saimi. She looks nice and I really like her pedigree. Good luck with everything!
  • Ingrid Gilray

    Hi Johanna, just had a look at your pics of Saimi - she's lovely, and standign so well. Reggie has also been loosing his teeth and getting new ones coming through, so he wants to chew everything just now. But he's so charming its very hard to tell him off for chewing where he shouldn't. I'll try to get some new pics of him soon - can't get him to stand still for long enough, so they tend to be fuzzy action shots! Lovely to hear from you.
  • Jean-Luc R Jonola X. Sametsuz H.

    Hi Johanna, I will try to take some other photos ... I guess he will have a lot of hair later ?
  • sammi pease

    Hi Johanna...thankyou for letting me know about the news pics...great photos...looks like she had a fun time on the boat!! Hope Saimi is behaving herself...Lola is up to lots of mischief at the moment..and growing very fast now.....I'm hoping to take some photos today as it's sunny, we have had so much rain...you don't feel like getting the camera out!
  • Dee Rance

    Thank you for that I am going to have my work cut out in the next 8 Weeks, but then I can relax. If it doesn't kill me that is....

  • Jean-Luc R Jonola X. Sametsuz H.

    Dear Johanna, Thank you for your quick answer ! yes, I received your previous message you sent August 4th. Before to investigate, and make these exams, the vet checked up Lucky. Last year we had a dog bitten by a tick and as you said he was almost completely paralyzed. Lucky was not like that but so exhausted, no appetite, and he had a sort of infection in his eyes (his right eye stays red) and his gum ... So I started to be worried, specially when you have readen what can happen to your dog on the Health website page of the Irish and English Club, health and deseases in some books about the Irish setter. Even the vet was amazed by the lethargy of Lucky. Now, we try to stimulate him and encorage to come into the garden and play. Walk with us etc. He is 5 months almost 6, so he needs to move nicely and develop his muscles.
    It was very nice to have your support during these last two weeks, I was so anxious by the results.
    Hope everything is fine with you, your dogs, and I hope to see soon some new photos of the sister of Lucky ?

  • sammi pease

    Hi Johanna....Lola hasn't had a season yet...but Abbi was quite young...only about 8 months...although it was only a light one.....so Saimi could easily being showing signs of teenage-hood....!!! it probably won't be very noticeable though at her age....just watch those boys....:-))))
