May I be permitted a little brag?

I've just come back from the North East of England Irish Setter Club open show,and we've had a lovely day. I haven't shown in the breed for a few years, and the boy hasn't been to any type of show for 18 months, but he, (Bailey) AKA Cataluna Son of a Gun aged very nearly 10, won Veteran Dog, then res BD and then Best Veteran in show:cool:. I'm over the moon.:cool:

There were lots of photographs taken, some for the club website, so I'll post a link once they are up, if anyone is interested in seeing my Boo.

Well done.  I had a Best Veteran in Show at a breed Champ show a couple of weeks ago so I know just how excited you are. I'd love to see pics and will post some of mine when I get them.  Brilliant.

A very well deserved brag - and lovely to hear. It is great when the oldies prove they still have 'it'

WELL DONE  :)

Big congratulations! Always nice to hear about a Veteran being shown, too few are in my opinion. You must be so proud, especially it being a breed show! :cool:

Moderator speedily removed the link!  can you pm the link Claire!  would love to see him!
- By Dawn-R Date 24.04.06 07:55 UTC
Hi Claire,I've had a look for the pictures, but I can't see them. Will you PM me the link please because your previous post has been edited.

I've had this problem before when looking at other results, it's something to do with my browser not refreshing properly.

Ooohh, I'm so excited.:eek: I looked for them all day yesterday.

Just in case Claire hasn't had time - I have PM'd the link did some searching for your lovely boy and he surely is lovely - the pics are 2006 but looks like the results are still 2005.  EDITED - THEY ARE NOW 2006!

He looks super for nearly 10!

Bet you are still grinning!  And so you should!

Thanks Rachel, for the link and to everybody for the lovely compliments. Bailey is my pride and joy at any time, I've always said he's my toyboy. I must admit, as he's getting older, I'm beginning to fret about the years going by.

I'm so proud of him, the pic looks great. Of course he's better in the flesh, and he's mine all mine:cool:
