    Our English Setter arrives

    Myself and my import partner John have been very excited over the last few days as our English Setter from Ireland bred by Gerald Devine http://gortinreaghsetters.wordpress.com/tag/gerald-devine/
    who Iis one of the most winning English Setter handlers currently in the UK .Our dog has been given the name by Gerald of "Failte" which means welcome in Gaelic and some how is pronounced felcha?? YEP LOL
    Failte is around 13 months old and a fine looking bitch , not a big bitch as one might find in NZ at her age but a little more fine of features and stunning to say the least ! She is a very styley looking bitch and her feathering is quite eye catching .I watched her pacing up and down the run and setting sparrows as they landed near the compound .I have a job ahead of me with her training as to date I think she has had zip nada .
    Here is a link to her on youtube

    Congratulations El B, you have been waiting a while. Mate if you taught her to wag that tail in a circular motion she could bloody near fly
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    So you're the proud owner of a felcher. Ok.

    Nice looking dog, but I can't believe they didn't do a bit of training. LMAO.
