New Beginnings....1st Expo in France - Anacardium Foehn (Juicy)

[Catherine Carter]

New Beginnings....11th of March, we attended our first show in France, organised by the Association Canine Territoriale de Franche-Comte in Vesoul. Very,very proud of my sweet Juicy who won 1st Excellent in Open Bitch Class, followed by CACS (also excellent) and Best of Breed. She then went on to win the 7th Group (Chiens d'Arret , meaning most of the Pointers and Setters and some French Spaniels but not the Retrievers). Many, many thanks to the Judge M. Roulleau who was so complimentary of Juicy (Anacardium Foehn). I think Rafa was watching over his little sis.....Needless to say we were over the moon !!!! :-)

Dear Catherine, because I have not visited ES for so long I did not know of Rafa's very sad passing at such a very young age. My heart goes out to you and Juicy. You were always a genuine friend to me and my precious English Setters. It is not possible for me to visit ES often and to be honest I want nothing to do with internet sites now. I just hope one day I can live in peace with Misty and my horses and then hopefully one day after this, Hobson will send us another boy, whatever the breed or cross-breed, to heal our broken hearts.

Hi Susan, thank you very much for your kind words. Rafa has been gone over a year ago and we think of him everyday.  It was a very very traumatic time. I hope you and Misty and your horses are doing well at the moment.
