Hi All
Just thought I would share this with you - I am so happy

My husband and I went along to the South West Gundog Show today, just to have a look around and for our puppy to soak in the atmosphere. as none of us have been to a dog show before.

We where stopped by loads of people/breeders with fab comments about our girl and how good she looks, told she has great showing potential.........wow we are so chuffed........and feel very proud. Our first show is the middle of next month, god help me....we both have so much to learn.

She looks a lovely pup...you don't see many red setters around...[hope thats what she is?] you will be fine just enjoy....

Bet you are on cloud nine...Dream tonight....

Yes,she is a Red Setter.....its was just so lovely for people to comment like they did. My husband and I have been grinning from ear to ear all day. Having never had a dog before and being such a complete novice - myself and my puppy.....its going to be a bit mad at our first show.

We started ring craft classes a few weeks ago. We where late starting as she has been a very bed traveller, but she is improving all the time and she was great today - no sick and hardly any dribble...on the way home she just slept, she was so exhausted.

Good luck next week Carol and Zak

He sounds wonderful and he looks wonderful - enjoy your first show and good luck! Let us know how you get on

So glad you are enjoying your little girl the one thing to remember when you go to your first show no matter how you do - you are bringing the best dog in the world home with you - it will be fairly daunting and I hope that the Irish Setter people down there take you under their wings and help you out if you were nearer us I could tell you that in Wales that would happen the Irish Setter people over here are ab fab

Good luck to you and continue to enjoy her and all that you do we may meet up someday soon
