Russell Irish Setters

I got to see Jack and Hope this week.  In December, when my father got ill and I needed to spend a few weeks away from home Trena, who owns Tate (the sire of my litter) offered to take Jack and Hope for a couple of months until I got back on my feet.  It was a difficult decision for me to send them away since I had them just about broke myself.  It was awfully nice of Trena to take them and certianly I could not have handled all the dogs myself.  I placed a couple of older dogs, and Cassie Allen and Jean Webb in Ohio agreed to take Mary for awhile too. 

I got to watch Jack and Hope run on Monday, and I am super pleased with how they are doing.  They ran well, had a clean bird each, and worked in  a happy and intense manner.  They make their broke stake debut this weekend.
