"This is Boomi the tri-colour English Setter at 15 years and 6 months (!) Not kidding and he's still going strong (well most days, that is). Boomi has been living on board a 47ft Steel Cutter (sailing yacht) for his entire life. He is the best sailor I have ever come across. He's seen more places in this world than most people can ever dream of. He has more babies than any dog I can imagine. When he was younger people on the more rural islands in the Caribbean and the Pacific Ocean use to beg for him to breed with their dogs. Because he's so gorgeous and of course he's a complete different breed to what they are use to. His only bad habit he has is to drool everywhere and to shake his head right where you're sitting so the drool lands everywhere. He gets loads of exercise - he particularly loves the beach and to chase ghost crabs (which is the photo i included). This photo was taken on an island called Woleai Island, which is part of the Caroline Islands in the Pacific Ocean. This photo was taken shortly after his 15th birthday!" "Lately he is slowly struggling more and more to walk. Canine arthritis in his back legs and since about a week ago his limping with his front legs. So he needs help getting on and off the yacht and in and out of the cock-pit. He also has cancer in various places (including his mouth). But other than that he is still very, very healthy considering his age. The Vet thought the same after his examination last week. Boomi has a healthy apatite (granted he gets fed raw minced beef and special lamb and rice dog pellets from the Vet). We estimate he will live for some time still - well we sincerely hope so anyway." __________________________________ Freckles, the 12 years old tri-color English Setter.

Jackson loves his swing! He gives it a good push, then jumps up in and falls asleep. Hall's General Jackson.
