Flannery
1976-1989
It took Flannery several years to mature, and he often challenged my patience, but he was one of the friendliest, funniest, most intelligent and affectionate dogs I have ever owned.
If you've ever owned or known an Irish Setter, you can relate to Gary Larson's cartoon.

That is a beautiful tribute collage of Flannery.
The cartoon is quite funny!
Beautiful dog! I love Irish setters. ;o)
I love The Farside! I have found that there's always a dog that tries your patience and you know that if they were human they would be able to speak 7 languages--Flannery sounds like one of those pups, and fortunate it was you who was his forever family! Our dog Rudi is also a very bright dog, that suffered from "Dumb Owner Syndrome" for the first year of her life by being part of 3 families that didn't understand her--I have to admit that at first I didn't either. But I find her to be the most intellegent (and the flakiest) dog we've ever had.
what a beautiful dog! love the cartoon...think it might be appropriate for goldens too!!

So glad to see Flannery! I remember him well! He was a gorgeous and amazing dog! Thanks for letting him be today's mosaic! Brought back memories.
Oh I have known an Irish Setter!!!
They are full throttle 24/7. They are Doxies on steriods. LOL

What a beautiful tribute to your gorgeous Flannery. A friend of ours has two red setters and they are both such funny, friendly dogs. Have a lovely week. Ros and Oscar
I never owned an Irish setter, but always wanted hair like one!
Hi Kit,
I have never owned a IS before but had a girlfriend that did so I got to know her dog well. The little carton says it all. That was her dog to a tea!!
I like a dog that doesn't have lots of hair (a short coat):)
I love the Greyhound spirt too.
Bambi is part whippet.
Your girlfriend, Fern
He was a handsome one.
Flannery was beautiful -Mom has always loved Irish Setters - such beautiful coats - so silky and soft.
That header is awesome!!! We really need a new one for the fall.
