Donny & Elain

… at the Celtic Festival at Mornington Races

Donny was always a wonderful ambassador for Irish either at the very many family sport events he went along to with, or with any of the show ‘groups’ he was sitting with at a dog show.

He lived with different breeds – fell in love with one of Elain’s ‘Cresty’ bitches… they would curl up in a bed together, till she passed away. He was always very patient with any of the Border Collie pups, but always impatient to be taken for his walk.

As well as being a delightful personality to live with, Donny had a successful show career culminating with a Best In Group award at the Royal Brisbane Show Best In Group award.   

He is missed terribly by the Saxon family ……..

Endurance Title

The Endurance Title involves the dog having to run for 20 kilometres in 2:35 (2 hours running plus 2 rest breaks/Vet checks -totalling 35 minutes). The dog is vet checked before the event, at each of the two rest breaks (after 8 kilometres, then after a further 6 kilometres) and again at the end of the test. Pads,  temperature and heart rate are checked each time. The dog also has to pass a basic ‘willingness to work’ test before and after the run (basically simple obedience). The dog runs on a walking lead with a handler who can either jog or ride a bicycle.  (Not suprisingly, John choose to ride a bicycle although he did have to get two very kind people from the Dalmation Club of Victoria to run Ruby for one lap whilst he fixed a flat tyre). A pace-setter leads each group to maintain the pace of 10 kph.

27 Dogs took part in the event, of which 3 did not finish (1 jogger decided he could not last the distance and two owners retired their dogs during the event). Ruby was the only Irish Setter
