What a exciting day I had last Sunday, August 25th, in California, USA. My home bred bitch, Western Sun's Mi Novia, Novia to her friends, won her first two points from the Bred By Exhibitor Class. I'm hoping to put all her points on her from the BBE class which is known to be the toughiest class to win from.

I also showed her Momma, Angel at the same show, but in the Open Class. Angel has been sitting at home for the last two years and is just now coming out. What a surprise…

It is the first time that we can celebrate Blossom's birthday... You already understood that she became 1 year old!!!

A wonderful week-end of success for our junior Fletcher of McBirdy.

On Satursday, at show of Mechelen (B), he obtained 1 Exc, then Best Junior Irish Setter, and later, Best Junior in show !

The day after, on the Field Trial held by the Belgian Gordon Club, Fletcher obtained the C.Q.N (Certificat de Qualités Naturelles).

A near 15 months, Fletcher is now qualified to be entered in working class in shows.

Well done little boy !…

We traveled into the Eastern part of Hungary to spend some days at a friend and also participate in 2 international shows. Danka did great the first day, she won the champion class and went on to be res.CACIB in the final competition. Day 2 was less successful, she was "only" second in champion class. Attached a photo of her and the class winning bitch. I will upload more pictures into…

No luck this time for my dog Glen, the only Irish Setter entered at this summer trial held mainly in sugar beet. The pheasants refused to play the game and went away and hid;-))

Of 12 dogs entered in 'Solo' only one Pointer was placed. Disappointing for us, but hopefully better luck next time!…

Father of the puppies is Jonola Dr Doolittle, known also as…
