Profile Information:

How many Irish Setters do you have?
Two again. Darwin (17/10/2004) and Mac (born 1/6/11).
How long have you owned Irish Setters?
Since 1996
About Me:
My love story with Irish setters started in 1996 with the most wonderful IS ever - MC, a field trial with Monroad ancestors. I was so lucky to have this very special and clever boy!!! Unfortunately, I lost him in May 2010, a couple of days short before his 14th birthday.
In between, in January 2005 came very handsome Darwin, the sweetest nature possible, Irish born with Thendara gd-parents. Recently we had a new addition to the family, Mac (the holy terror), born the 1/6/2011 from Sumaric Mr. Jingles and Thendara Vanilla Ice.

    Chantal thankyou for the birthday wishes .  Molly has been busy all day chasing shadows as it is like a July day here (hot and sunny).  We are off to dinner in just a bit and to pick up some doggie icecream for Molly on the way back .  This year I am getting by with celebrating a whole week here ( have to work a wee bit later in week but not too many hours)...ending it with a concert (The Lettermen) and dinner with close friends on Saturday night.  Teasing Alan that The Lettermen's music was oldies for me growing up but still looking forward to it.) 

  • Karen

    Will pass the cuddles on Chantal
