It is with great sadness we report the deaths of four Irish Setter exhibitors all having tested positive for Coronavirus (COVID-19)
Jean Naish (Cardale) - 21st May
Do any of you remember Jean Naish of Cardale Setters? If you know anyone who would please share this. An ISBC member since 1976. She used to be based in Wantage and was well known in the showing world . She bred really sound correct animals with calm and sweet natures, ideal both for the ring and as adored pets. When we met her 40 plus years ago her foundation dog was the magnificently deep chested Cardale Syndic the image of his illustrious relative Wendover Gentleman. He is responsible for my love affair with setters which has lasted to this day.
Jean sold me Cardale Sonata my first beloved Irish, helped me learn to show and later breed with very good success despite my inexperience and we remained in touch for some 40 years. She moved to Mid Wales after her husband retired and had lots of space and riverbank access for the setters which was much enjoyed. Later , after Stan’s death, she returned to Oxfordshire . She had given up breeding when older but young enough that no dog would outlive her and need a home- typical of her.
She went into care a couple of years ago Today I heard that she had had a fall aged 97 and went into the John Radcliffe in Oxford. She died on 21 May having picked up corona virus. Irish Setters have lost someone really special. I would go from my home in Wales to the funeral but cannot which is a sadness.
Please give all your dogs a very special hug instead.
Fiona Wilton
We offer our deepest sympathy to her family & friends
Bob Bouttell (Ixia) - 9th April
