This gorgeous young lady arrived here on Monday, thanks to Larry. I was concerned that she would be pining for her pup, Rolo, from whom she had just been separated, but she trotted happily in, gave the place a good sniff and shortly after met Bran who tried to overwhelm her with puppy play. He is 8 months old but the same size as Candy and fairly boisterous so I was afraid he might overwhelm her but she behaved like a perfect gentle lady and patiently put up with his antics. She went to the front door a few times to look out and once gave a little whine so we took her out on the lead for a quick walk around the block and I think perhaps she assured herself that her pup was not outside. She has settled wonderfully well and has the most brilliant temperament and we are delighted to have her here as our guest.

This beautiful girl, who seems to like being called Daisy, has been with us for a week now so we have had time to get to know each other well. I think I can safely say that she is one of the most adorable dogs I have ever met.She has the temperament of an absolute angel,she is so kind and gentle you can see what a great mammy she was even though she is so young herself. She is such an affectionate girl that it is very obvious that she was a much loved dog in the past, she has a wagging tail for everyone, loves meeting new people and loves to give and receive lots of cuddles and kisses. She is fully house trained, knows how to sit (sometimes!!) especially if there is food involved . She loves eating, going for walks and occasionally playing with her foster friend Bran.

This young lady continues to charm everyone she meets with her lovely friendly manner and happy face. She has settled in so well and apart from the odd sandwich stealing exploit has been an absolute pleasure to have stay with us. She hops into the car no bother and is well behaved during travel. She is good on the lead and loves her trips to the park, dog park, mountains, forests- anywhere really. She is a real ‘hounddog’, nose to the ground following the scent. Her most exciting moment here to date was when a fox appeared in the garden and she nearly went through the kitchen door to get out and when she did (after the fox had left) she did laps of the garden on the trail of his scent. We met a ‘real’ setter in the park the other day and there was a lot of similarity in coat and face but Daisy would be nowhere as big as the other guy and may have a bit of spaniel in the genes which of course makes her even more good looking!

Daisy continues to thrive, she has settled so easily and has such a friendly nature that I think she will adapt to a new home very easily. She loves company, seeks out pets and cuddles but is equally happy to lie out in the sun on her own and snooze. She is a very relaxed lady who just wants somewhere cosy to live and to be loved, fed and walked (probably in that order!).

Daisy had a lovely weekend, she really enjoys relaxing in the sun and going for walks. When we go to the dog park everyone she meets loves her, usually commenting on how gorgeous and affectionate she is. She is not overly interested in toys or playing fetch. Bran has tried to interest her by shaking his toys in front of her and occasionally she will respond by playing for a while. Herself and Bran get on really well and have even taken to sharing the beanbag most evenings but I think she would be equally happy as part of a ‘one dog household’ because she loves all the people she meets and while she is very friendly to all the other dogs in the dog park as soon as my back is turned she is usually to be found sitting up on a bench being petted with a big smile on her face .

Daisy went to the beach today, she wasn’t too impressed with the wet stuff but she did enjoy chasing seagulls!
