Hi everybody,
My name is Lancelot (friendly, Lance). I am the one on the right of the picture. I'm an eleven-year old Irish Setter, but I am still a very youthful, playful, and "sporting" dog.
I am actually the oldest among Italian Agility dogs. Unfortunately, "in my time", this sport was not practiced in Italy, or outcoming me would have been a very hard business for everydog, even for Border Collies.
They seem to think they can always "plunder" every prize, but I know one black Alsatian female, whose name is Thika, who can make those "fanatics" bite the dust!
The black bully who is trying to pinch my stick, on the left of the picture, is my "adopted" brother Messner, a five-year old mixed breed. We share beds, Agility School, dislike for Border Collies and MY food-bowl (he gulps down all his dinner in a dash, and I always end up with his black "snout" in my bowl, even though I haven't finished eating).
You will find more information about our Agility school in the following page, if you like:

Visit the following Claudia & Marco's Irish Setter breeding site (actually only in Italian):
We live in Nepi (VT) - 30 km North of Rome, with Claudia Inzolia and Marco Avetta, our humans (They're quite well-trained, good-tempered, and pleasant enough for humans, after all).
Both of them work in Software houses and asked me to put their C.V.s in my page.
"You never know", they said, "somebody might find them interesting!" - (er...). In any case, here you have:
Marco's Curriculum Vitae
Claudia's Curriculum Vitae
When it's raining, or we don't have to train for Agility competitions, Claudia and Marco also have other hobbies.
Both of them are good Classic Guitar amateur players. They particularly love Renaissance Music and Instruments.
Thay also have a little collection of strings, including an Egyptian Ud, a Bouzuki, a Neapolitan Mandoloncello, a 7-course Lute, several guitars and other instruments.
