2009 will be my 30th year in Setters and my 20th year in Gordon Setters. Although my original interest was showing I am, after taking charge of young Harvey (who has a lot of working heritage) very interested in the working side of setters as well. I also have a beautiful Maine Coon cat but dont tell her that - she thinks she's a Gordon!!
Hi Louise,
Thanks for the comment! The judge also considered him for the RDCC but he just lost out on 'maturity'.
Never mind, his day will come!

Martyn.

Don't call me a quater century old! That makes me feel really old!!! I'll See you at Crufts. I'll actually have time to chat, not taking many pooches.......... So can sit and watch the judging!! ( It will make a change)
Hi Louise,
I've put some more photos on my page of some of my old dogs. I hope they are of interest to you! It is sad to think they are no longer with us today, but didn't they give us so much pleasure?

I was thrilled to bits at Mercedes 9th career CC and I missed the whole thing. Christine and I were in the Junior Stakes ring (where I managed a third with Dave). Dave relieved himself in one of the posh pots of flowers at the end of the main ring. Filled it up, perfect aim. It was such a lovely display but I could imagine one particular pot of flowers all dead and limp by Best In Show!!
Yes, I have seen Debra's Wallace , and also Ann-Marie's dogs. Saw her at the Manchester Show on Sunday just gone.
