I can't believe that Tommy is showing
in Veterans. Such a beautiful boy. He went Best in Veteran's at the
2007 IS National in Ocala, FL.
Jill and Tommy Taylor -- a great team! |

Name: Brady
Call Name: Am
Can CH Ohkom Sunberry
Whelped: JAN 15, 1997
|
Brady sired Madonna's litter this
spring -- the old Coot! He was hard to live with for a few days --
walking around with his chest all puffed out and VERY proud or
himself. He is just an overgrown puppy himself. He's been in to see
the puppies a few times but once they start moving in to close, he's
out of the room.

Name: Jameson
Call Name: Captiva McDerry See'N
Double
Whelped: JUN 27, 2003
|
Jameson became a US Champ in the
summer of 2006. It was a thrill watching him in the ring. He is such
a blockhead at home that I was always amazed watching him show. He
is now 4 and still very young at heart. He is very loyal and
insists on being "near" -- sometimes "too near". He loves to climb
-- not fences -- just about everything else though. I watched him
once go from the floor to the chair to the counter to the top of the
frig -- VERY proud of himself until it came time to come down! |

Name: Evan
Call Name: BrynMoor's Skyland

Whelped: MAY 21, 2007

Introducing Evan. From our Skye
Litter, Evan picked us from the start. As soon as all the other pups
were off to their new homes, Evan has been out and about with his
more adult (term used loosely) family. He, of course, is running the
show. Jameson is less then impressed. Madonna is THRILLED. Jessica
has taken to the higher couch. Jake hovers and then runs. Courtney
and Geneva have a new chew toy and Brady is busy running away from
him. Evan is oblivious. Day Two and he is already running and
jumping into his crate to eat his meals. It is wonderful having
older ones teaching him the ropes. I can't say much for setting good
examples. |

Name: Jake
Call Name: Redwing's
Majestic Jake
Whelped: NOV 5, 1996
|
Jake is now 11 years old. We can't believe it. He is still his independent
little self and needs his world to be orderly and routine. He has
started grunting when he gets up or down. It's a great grunt and it
makes us laugh. He has enjoyed the puppies and, as always, insists
on spending time out in the puppy yard with them. Madonna
understands this "mothering" side of Jake and invites him in with
helicopter tail wags. Lovable Jake -- not much more to say. |

I
miss this little girl so much.The comfort of having a friend has been taken away, but not that of
having had one.

"We who choose to surround ourselves with lives even more
temporary than our own, live within a fragile circle, easily and
often breached.
Unable to accept its awful gaps, we still would live no other way.
We cherish memory as the only certain immortality,
never fully understanding the necessary plan."

Name: Jessica
Call Name: Captiva
BrynMoor True Colors
Whelped: MAR 28, 1999
|
Jessica has been nursing her rawhides
while Madonna has been raising her litter. She is absolutely
positive that they are puppies and that we should all think the same
too. So, we respect her neurosis and compliment her daily on the
great job she is doing raising her "puppies". She looks at us very
proudly and wags the very tip of her tail. She does forsake her pups
every evening though when she is asked to come upstairs and sleep
with me. |

Name: Madonna
Call Name: Am Can CH Captiva
BrynMoor Vogue Color
Whelped: MAR 28, 1999

Madonna is a Mom again in 2007. She
is so "in her zone" when she has puppies to watch after. We were not
planning to breed her again but she had other ideas. This last time
she was in season she was relentless in her pursuit for a Father.
She and Brady managed a rendezvous while we were vacationing this
spring in TN. Lew and I were standing right there -- we were
absolutely amazed at how quickly it happened. We had sent Madonna
out in the yard with everyone to see if she had come out of season
-- apparently not, we have 10 little redheads to prove it! |

Name: Stephanie
Call Name: BrynMoor's Russett Blush
Whelped: JUL 16, 2002
|
She is too too much -- a free spirit if ever there was one -- a Rider
daughter, VERY social "in a good way". She
looked absolutely stunning at the 2006 National in Bellaire, MI.
This little girl is our "town crier". She announces ANY event -- big
and small. Well, announce is a kind way of putting that she YELLS
OUT LOUD each and every time something is going on: WE'RE
GOING OUTSIDE!! IT'S TIME TO EAT!! TREATS!! I wish I had her
enthusiasm for the common, ordinary things we do each day. She
relishes each event as if she just cannot believe that we are going
to DO "THAT" AGAIN TODAY!!

Name: Vienna
Call Name: Captiva Vienna Violet
Whelped: AUG 3, 2002

Vienna
has had a trying time this past year. She came home from Captiva
with her daughter and promptly attempted to assert herself to the
top of our hierarchy. She was quite surprised when her plans did not
come to fruition. She wasn't counting on all of Madonna's daughters siding
with their mother. But, her plans did not count as a complete
failure. She is now upstairs full-time and rubbing it in everyone's
face. She continues to sleep in her crate at night until she learns
to ask us to go outside. No matter, it may be a crate but it's an
UPSTAIRS crate and that's equivalent to The Ritz.

Name: Courtney
Call Name: BrynMoor Heart of the Hollow
Whelped: DEC 20, 2004
|
Courtney
continues to mature and come together. She moves beautifully and I
love to watch her in the ring and out in the yard. She's a little
stubborn and continues to "dance" a little in her stack but once we
work that out she should finish easily. |

Name: Genéva
Call Name: Captiva BrynMoor Right on Time
Whelped: APR 15, 2006
|
This
is Geneva. I can't believe that she is over a year old now. She
LOVES to rough house with Courtney and Jameson -- she keeps up with
them too! The three of them play and harass each other endlessly.
Nothing better then a used peanut butter jar and a game of
keep-away. She is well put together and will be out showing in a few
months. |

This is Heidi who lives in Michigan.
She has a wonderful life there and two really great humans tending
to her every need. She was my pick girl from the Sun litter. She has
been in the ring a few times and performed very well. She reminds me
a lot of her Aunt Jessica.

Heart, RN, RA, CD
Whelped: DEC 20, 2004

Oh my Molly! Affectionately known
to me as Miss Molly Fancy Pants, she is quite the show girl -- very
bold and confident. She loves the show ring and is AKC
pointed. She achieved her UKC Breed Championship easily and has
proven to be a star in the Rally and Obedience rings too. She
completed her RN, RA and CD in 3 straight trials each -- placing 1st
several times and earning a High Irish in Trial. While she continues
to grow and mature, Lynne and Molly will pursue the Rally Excellent
title, and then go on to try to become one of the few Irish Setters
to earn the elusive RAE. Truly her mother's daughter, Molly is quick
to learn and delights in inventing new ways to accomplish tasks. She
is truly a very versatile Irish, and performs with bright eyes, a
light step, and a very happy grin on her face.
