Welcome to ES Dianne!!! 

Hi Diane, Have just seen that you are new here so wanted to say a very warm Welcome to Exclusively Setters.  This is such a lovely, fun group to belong to.  I also notice that you're from Australia.  I am also & from Victoria too.  We live in an area close to Lilydale in Melbourne. 

Your 3 dogs are just gorgeous.  My Irish girl Tess is almost 11 yrs. now & is absolutely the light of my life.  In October 2010, we lost our lovely English girl & Tess, & us were devastated.  We now have a 9 month old English Setter pup who is a very sweet & lovely girl.  Must admit though, a new pup, after having two 'older' dogs is a bit of a shock to the system, but we are getting there (lol).

Your photo's are beautiful.  I've loved looking through them.

Again, welcome. 

I think I sent to myself

hi Dianne

a pleasure to have australian friend on the site. Molly came from QLD on a Virgin Plane to Sydney airport. She was sight unseen but I would not swap her for the world. She is our third IS and I must say the best. We lived on the northern beaches for years and recently moved to Terrigal on the central coast. Sorry to say I don't particularly like it so we will try and move back next year. Molly does not do that much exercise she is such a lazy bones but when she gets going she sure makes up for it. Molly comes from a very large litter of 15 (16) I think one died anyway she is smaller than our previous IS but just a darling. So you have 3 IS? that must be great and keep you busy. Talk later

Hi Dianne.

Love your photos.  I had three setters at once before my 'mid-life crisis', so I've got it out of my system now!  As my Flame has now entered senior citizenship, I have been thinking a bit about another puppy, maybe from working dog stock, but I'm not keen to distract myself too much with ideas about a puppy when Flame is requiring more of me.  I want to fully enjoy the pleasures of an old Irish for as long as I can.  Good to make your acquaintance.  Best wishes, John.

Hi Dianne, thanks for your friends invite glad to accept, Ellen& Finlay

Hello Dianne

Great to catch up. Glad you caught up with the breeder in the end. This is a great site.

The girls are looking beautiful.

Thank you very much Dianne, I appreciate the nice welcome!  Your dogs are also very nice, great pictures.

Thankyou Diane, for your very kind comments on my English girl Grace.  She is a real sweetheart.  Has just had her 1st. birthday & is slowly progressing from a silly pup to a beautiful lady.  She brings so much pleasure & happiness to our family & is always making us laugh with her silly antics.  She has such a beautiful nature as of course do all our Setters.  

Thankyou again.
