Sadly within two days of each other in May 2010 I had to say goodbye to Evie (Canonsett Camassia)  2000 to 2010 and Robbie 1998 to 2010 (Crimbledale Bucks Fizz at Canonsett )

Evie gave me Roxy, Daisymae and Lali and we have grandaughters Suzy, Chantelle, Heidi and Rianna- a wonderful legacy. She was ten and a half  and daughter of my wonderful Ella.

Robbie was a true gentleman English Setter. He was never gave a day's trouble the whole of his eleven and a half years. He showed well for me, was an easy stud dog and never had a grumble for anyone- dog or human. I have his children ,grandchildren and great grandchild. 1998 to 2010

Robbie's brother Casey was a handsome boy and gained a second at Crufts in a huge Junior class when only 15 months. He had to stop showing unfortunately and died aged only 8. 1998 to 2006

 

Sophie (Ravensett Paris at Canonsett) was my soulmate.  Mother to Dottie. 1996 to 2006.

This picture is the one used on Jesters Rosettes  for English Setters. There will never be another Sophie.

 

Ella- Sophie's sister (Ravensett Chanel at Canonsett) was a beautiful and wonderful girl. Mother to Evie and therefore Granny to Roxy, Daisy and Lali.  She and my late husband had a special bond.  1996 to 2006. In this picture she is almost 10 years old.

 

Poppy was our Jack Russell /Collie cross. My daughter's dog.  Boss of the household and we loved her dearly. 1984 to 1998

 

Flossie was my Border Collie. She never wanted to be a Collie- just a loving pet who was with you constantly. After she died I kept holding doors open for her to follow me through. I hadn't realises how  often she was at my heels.

 

My fabulous labrador- Angie - although so long ago now I still miss her. The cleverest dog I will probably ever own- much smarter than me! 1977 to 1988
