Sir Scotty Sandancer "Scotty" August 31, 1991 - March 6, 2001 - He was my first Irish all my own.   I had Irish Setters growing up on the farm as a kid at different times - girls named "Puffer" and "Molly" and a boy named "Chester" that I rescued from being chained to a tree by his owner and half starved. But this boy was all mine and I called him "Scotty Boy" in honor of yet another Irish Setter that my older married brother Larry had loved.  Scotty faithfully rode beside me for thousands of miles in "his" sidecar on my 1992 Harley FLTCU.  He loved to go fishing with us and swimming.  He died too young of pancreatic cancer at 9-1/2. 

Sir Goofy Sandancer "Goofy" August 8, 1993 - January 28, 2006 - He was a full brother to Scotty from a breeding 2 years after and they became true "partners in crime", loved to chase birds and dig out gophers in the field.  He was a BIG boy weighing nearly 130# in his prime and standing 30 inches at the withers.  He died of multiple aging issues at 12-1/2.
