    RIP Des O'neile

    Irish forum member Des passed away today after his battle with cancer. I know a few of us here had a bit to do with him over the years and benefitted from his wealth of knowledge on pointers and setters. Rest in peace Des

    RIP
    All those with dogs waiting no longer fear death. Those with many dogs waiting even welcome it in it's time.
