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.
Thanks so much for the birthday wishes, Chantal. I am sadly without my Jilly today, who is at Country Club Kennels while I am visiting with family. My parents' rescue IS, Duchess, was sure to start my day off right with lots of morning snuggles, however! :)
Yes it is difficult being patient when i could look at the Twoacre pups every day on the webcam - even when we were on holiday abroad! Husband thought it was big brother for dogs!!
Bet he's having fun at the shows, yes Michelle's dog does look very handsome he does well at the shows, i've never been to a show i'd like to go and watch, i've been told there is one in Birmingham 2nd September think i'll go along, vet does think Finlay is a miracle dog, only problem he had was a ear infection, got to take him soon but just for some more medicine they give him the once over, but keep everything crossed for him, hope your boy does well at the shows, let me know.
Thanks for the birthday wishes Chantal. I haven't been back on since i joined, and I really must work out how to put some photos up of my dogs! As soon as I have some free time, I'll do it! Loved looking at photos of your dogs.
Thank you Chantal! I think she's very cute too! We took a bit of a risk as we bought her without being able to see her parents, not even in photo ... It's not so easy finding an Irish Setter in Mexico ...
Hi Chantal, congratulations on Mac getting his Irish Junior Champion, you must be so proud of him, give him big hugs from us in Birmingham, or should i say rainy Birmingham, but it dosen't stop Finlay wanting me to go into garden to play with him
Thanks for the nice comment :-) - we are back since about a fortnight due to bad weather - photos will come! Promised! But not as many as last year - again due to bad weather. Have a nice Sunday still, C & J xxx
Thank you for your birthday wishes, Chantal. We had a lovely day here - the weather was superb!! And to make the day complete, the first wheat field of the season was harvested on my birthday, so the dogs had a nice walk through the stubble that evening. Luna can't go far - she's very weak in her hind legs - but she loved it, all the same :-). Take care.
Hi Chantal, it's nice for them to do well in shows and then just be normal dogs. My sweetheart is still doing well the vet doesn't know what to say anymore, he shouldn't be here but he is, they have even got second opinion from a specialist who agreed with them, sometimes i hope there wrong as i dont know how i'd cpoe, give Mac a xtra hug from me
Thanks for the wishes. I am sick in bed with bronchitis - some birthday gift. However Freddie is here to entertain me with his weird & wonderful ways. He has this strange way of dancing round in circles on his hind legs when I carry his food bowl outside for him to eat - must try & video it. I have a photo from last week - on his new bed; will get my daughter to upload it tomorrow. He is a year old now - you can see earler pics of him on my daughter -Simone's profile
Thank you. I have indeed been spoiled rotten. See my facebook page for details. I am sure Jamo will reveal all when things are ready :-D Chuffed to bits I am :-)
Oh thanks, Chantal! Nice that you had a look through the blogs - part two will be up this week :-). I hope you had a lovely holiday and find it not too hard to get back to your normal routine. All the best, C & J xxx
Yes, I visited all 14 puppies last night,, they are 4 weeks old and I am in Love!! Too early to pick, but will be call him Rudy..(Rudolf).. for the holiday. We hope to have him home after Christmas.. Thanks for asking
Hi Chantal, just seen you were signed on, hope all is well with you? Everything here in Birmingham is good, Finlay asleep , me watching tv, take care Ellen x
Hi Chantal, Nice to see you logged in again after such a long time. I hope all is well and that you and your family are having nice beach walks even if this summer was a bit rainy. All the best, C & J xxx
Hi Chantal, I'll try and pin Clare down and get her to put some on for me via her laptop as I have a tablet and I think I need to have a phone that can send them straight to tablet, I took him to have his photo taken last week as they had a special offer on, trouble as we got out of the car it started to rain so not sure how photos will look, going back Saturday to pick them, so keep your eye out for some. How are your dogs? Can't belive Finlay will be 5 just before christmas (",) take care Ellen and Finlay xxx
