    Dear Elaine & George, I am so sorry to hear about Charlie, he was a real gentleman. Its hard when we lose our four legged friends, especially the very special ones. I still think of my beautiful Lucy now ( Sh Ch Delsanto Cassandra) & I lost her in 1992, I can't belive where the time has gone but time is the only thing that helps to heal the pain & the other dogs help too. See you soon

    I was so sorry when you told me about Charlie time will help you get over his loss..Speak soon....
  • colette tuite

    Hello Elaine ,sorry to hear of your loss .He would have been a very special dog to you. I hope you have some of his progeny to carry on with. With my special dogs i take some comfort in knowing that part of them lives on through subsequent generations.

  • Sue Wicks

    Hi Elaine ! Nice to see you too yesterday ! Don't remember playing with a puppy though ?? Take care - and see you soon , are you going to Bournemouth ?
  • Jennifer Martin

    Hi Elaine, Just thought I'd let you know that Rio is doing very well, he is growing into a super chap and everyone who meets him remarks on his temperament. Hope to leave you more updates in the future.
  • Jennifer Martin

    Hi Elaine, Another update! - Rio is fit, well and happy, enjoying life and a typical adolescent. He is very attentive and follows me 'Everywhere!', which is no bad thing - but 5 minutes alone in the bathroom would be nice!. We have no problems with him apart from him still not travelling very well, we are attempting to get him over this by taking him out for a car trip with a walk most days - almost got him up to three miles now before he starts salivating and being sick!. He very rarely barks apart from when he is playing in the field, he loves 'digging' - I fear for my garden! but I know I will win that one. Don't think there's a day goes by that he doesn't put a smile on my face with his antics, he is quite comical but like most setters is not impressed by being laughed at!. He is a handsome young chap and as I've said before has a great temperament, it's a joy to watch his reaction to every new experience, - he really enjoyed snow!. He's a bit of a devil for standing up on his back legs to look over the field wall but find the command 'off'' gets him back on four leg's, as there are sheep all around I would never let him out in the field alone, not sure if he could resist temptation!. We have great fun together and are now going out to play!.
  • Jennifer Martin

    Hi Elaine, Rio is enjoying life as usual, for the most part he is a delight but like all setter's - has his moments!. He's easily distracted if there are people and dog's to investigate, he thinks everyone's his friend, there's not many people who walk past and ignore him!.
    He was in his element today when a group of young Asian children wanted to know all about him and pet him, he was the first IS they had seen and for some the first dog they had ever touched!. At 'Devil's Bridge' Kirkby Lonsdale he stood on his back leg's with his front paws on the parapet watching a dog in the river, people walked past smiling, stopped to talk to him and even take his picture! - he's such a poser!
    It's such a relief that he's well over his car sickness and now almost a 'joy rider!' enjoying his trip's out.
    Quite an experience last week in the wood where I let him run loose, he was squealing and screaming, I thought he must have been badly injured - what a noise he was making but it was all because he was chasing a Deer! - he didn't know what it was but he knew he wanted it!.
    Anyway we have no problems or worries just one very happy dog, he certainly keeps me busy and amused, will have to take some more photos of him but guess he looks very much like his sibling's.
    At the moment both he and Roy are having a siesta on the sofa - guess it's a dog's life!.
  • Kirsty williamson

    hi Elaine ,
    many congratulations on your RCC with Lucas today at SKC we are delighted for you. i have had yet another op on my knee and am struggling to walk at the moment which is why we didn't come. see you soon.
  • Jennifer Martin

    Hi Elaine, Thanks for getting back to me, I have wormed Rio once before with Drontal but this time he had such a bad reaction to it I was quite worried, anyway I posted on here and got a lot of replies from people who's dog's have had similar reactions. Like you said we will try something else next time and fingers crossed he can stomach it. Anyway that's the only problem I have had with him so thought it best to check it with you. He is a happy chap and we are very pleased with him, Yesterday evening we met a a lady who was so taken with him she wanted to take him home and she's not the first!. .Must say it's a bit hot for him at the moment he is wandering around and in and out of the garden as he pleases, he was laying asleep under a damp towel earlier to keep him cool - but he's up to something he has a glint in his eye and something in his mouth and is trotting around looking very pleased with himself trying to get our attention!. Will be going out for a walk when it gets a bit cooler. Take care, lovely to hear from you.
  • Sandra Mather

  • Carole Bailey

    Hi Elaine
    Well done on the RCC's you have recently won. You know I am a fan so was really pleased for you. Thank you so much for the card and Kind comments when Monello died. I am suffering from CFS so won't be in the ring until October with my new pup. A Monello Grandson. Good Luck Carole xxx
  • Kirsty williamson

    Many many congratulations on your fab result today, we are so pleased for you and George. Hope the pups are ok too.
    Best wishes
    kirsty and mother!
  • sue morgan

    Hi Elaine,George and *SIR LUCAS*....very pleased for you ............WELL DONE , CONGRATULATIONS....Sue and The Red Ones
  • Jennifer Martin

    Hi Elaine, It's hard to believe that Rio has been with us for a year, he is almost past the juvenile delinquent stage but still likes to indulge in the occasional act of toilet roll stealing!.
    He is much admired and attracts attention wherever he goes and everyone comments on his superb temperament,
    He is such a happy chap, it is a joy to have him living with us.
  • margaret benjafield

    Dear Elaine and George,Hope all is well.Our boys are doing very well.Getting bigger and bigger every day..Will get Bill to send some photos to ye.They love their walks and are very good toilet wise.
  • margaret benjafield

    Hi Elaine and George,sorry for not getting back to ye sooner.We are getting on well with the boys. Still eating everything in sight. Tomo loves stones, twigs ect.We will send ye photographs we will get Will to show us how to do it.
  • Jennifer Martin

    Hi Elaine, will try to get some photo's to you but not sure when!, Had a terrible shock this summer and having a bit of a time of it - Roy is undergoing chemotherapy for inoperable lung cancer (asbestos related) it really knocks him off his feet and he is just coming out of his chemo blip, next session on the 24th but at least it is doing some good and has shrunk it considerably so we are going in the right direction and hoping for remission.
    Rio is a darling and takes my mind off things and keeps me busy, he is intelligent and learns things very quickly - like going into the walk-in shower in the utility and waiting to have his muddy feet washed off, even lifts his paws up for me :) . He's just had a good romp running around a 100 acre field that belongs to a neighbour he can get around it a lot faster than I can, I only have to call 'Car' or 'Gate' and he is straight back!. It took a little while to get him over the travel sick puppy but is now quite the 'boy racer' and bounds into the back of the car with enthusiasm!.
    He still has his moments just couldn't resist stealing a pen to get my attention this morning, there's still the odd toilet roll but they are put out of reach these days!.
    Hope you are 'all' keeping fit and well - Bye for now almost time for another walk!
  • nicola manduca
