This photo has hung on the wall in my kitchen for many years. Found at a fleamarket and taken in Sweden. He obviously loved his dogs enough to have a special photo taken with them. I find it interesting that the leads used are so very thin, rather like show-leads. Enjoy two setters from the past...he is now back in his frame and once again looking down at me on a daily basis. :-)

PS I am certain he would have been delighted to find himself… Continue

Bohême was in "holidays":-)

This Sunday our girl Bohême was one day "little princess" by good friends.

They lost their own Setterboy some month ago. He was from the same combination as Bohême but a litter before.

So they all enjoyed the day sooooo much. Today I took some pictures they made.

Oh...I love my old girl so much...she will be 11 years old in January!…

Fun and Frolic at Amhurst

With Sincerest Thanks to Ursula Wilby for sketching so superbly, and capturing the essence of my Irish Setters, along with "Pickles," the cat.
Great fun and frolic in the Amhurst household, where there is never a dull moment. All the dogs get on wonderfully, and they are a joy to own and love.

Returning Archie and other desasters

Our trip to Scotland

Overall I have to say this was the most desastrous trip in the last years that I have been on. Not only got we robbed on the way up, our truck got broken into on the way home also - in Germany of all places. We have been in many countries in the 'Wild East' and never ever have we had any problems. Not even in eastern Hungary, close to the Ukrainian/Romanian border! Our police in Austria was just only shocked when I… Continue
