My name is "STAR"
(Setter Traveling About Randomly)
I'm a Gordon Setter and like all of my breed, have a little bit of an independent streak. I'm fun, I'm courageous, and I'm smart. I want to see the world of Gordons and learn more about all the activities, events, and sites that Gordons around the world get to see. A lot of people have volunteered to help me in my quest. If you're one of them, thank you so much.
If you click here, you'll see a map of my journey to date.
Clicking here, will bring you to my blog, where you'll find the story of my journey as I go along.
If you want to help me, here's how it works:
- I will be passed along throughout the Gordon fraternity
- If you get me, you need to do the following:
- email Bev to let her know you have me at bevh@sureshot.ca
- that email should include who you are, your kennel name if you have one, and where you live
- date and sign (or paste your kennel card in) the Passport that is with me
- follow that up with a description (travel log) of what we do together while I'm with you
- sending pictures of me while I'm with you would also be good
- the 'travel log', pictures, and name of who you hand me off to, should also be emailed to bev
- Bev will post the travel log and pictures on my blog which you can see by clicking here.
- She will also put a pin on my map to indicate where you and I are.
Only Rules:
1. I must be accompanied by a person. No mail or shipments. We're hoping this game shows us how interconnected we are.
2. The person I'm with gets to make the decision on who takes me next or where I go next so, if you've got a plan or want to do some lobbying to get me to your place, that's who you need to contact.
You can send me off with anyone that you think will help me travel and keep me safe. However, the following people have already volunteered to help so if you run into them you've already got a contact:

I left SureShot Gordons in Sherwood Park, Alberta at the end of July, 2009. The gear I took with me, included a passport, instructions, my food dish, snorkle mask (for overseas travel) and it was all packed nicely into my kennel. Follow my fun (and join in it). I'm sure we'll find out that Gordon owners are really this huge extended family linked around the world.
