My father grew up next door to an Irish Setter breeder and passed his love for the Irish on to us at a very young age. We had two Setters growing up -- Shannon and Molly -- and my folks had a third Setter -- another Shannon -- after I left home. I adopted Tilly (Chantilly Maiden) on my own as a three year old and she easily became the first true love of my life. Tilly lived to be nearly 17. My husband and I now have a 1 year old pup, Jilly (Jillian of Chantilly's Everlasting Light) who despite her innocent appearance is a boisterous, flighty, headstrong, and impulsive little minx. In other words, she’s a puppy! And she is perfect.
