Day in the Fields...

[Susan Stone]

On Saturday Dec. 6th we had the first 'Coppersheen International Field Day' in the Alsace, France. Six Irish of my breeding plus Duncan as a 'special guest' enjoyed learning a bit about setter work in the field. Four of the 'Ds' aged 7 months had their very first bird experience and they took to it like a duck to water... or a setter to the field;-))
We were a very international group with nationalities covering CH, F, D, H, SA and GB and celebrated St. Nikolaus Day in the Alsacian style eating Manalas. Thanks Monique!!!

Here are some photographs of the youngsters enjoying their day out.

Congratulations to all of you! It looks excellent. Wish I had been there! Your puppies look beautiful and hopefully they all enjoyed it a lot! Hope François liked all his new pupils too?

[Susan Stone]

I think Laura was a little taken by the french charm...
