Pamela And Tom's Story
Tom & Pamela's love affair with Irish Terriers began in 1989 when they became the proud owners of Clara who was bred in Stirling, Scotland. When Clara was 2, the Connor family emigrated to Western Australia and Clara went on to live a long and happy life in her new homeland. Finn (Anluan in Like Flynn) arrived in 2001 and Nuala (Coolaney Nuala) followed in 2004. Both dogs are now actively competing in the world of agility and make up two fifths of the Red Devils Agility Team. In addition to their agility titles, Nuala has also gained an Endurance Title after successfully completing a 20km run in September 2006. Nuala is the first Irish Terrier in Australia and possibly the world to gain this title which makes her achievement even more special. Finn is an accredited therapy dog and visits a local hospital where his wonderful, placid nature makes him an ideal and much loved visitor. He has featured in the local newspaper and in promotions for the hospital's occupational therapy department. The newest member of the Red Devils is Associate Member, Darcy. Darcy has recently started her agility training and is showing great promise as she is speedy and loves to jump. She has formed a close bond with both Finn & Nuala and is keeping everyone on their toes with her high energy antics! First and foremost, these three dogs are much loved pets. Although these versatile dogs love to run, jump, swim and play, they are happiest simply being with each other and their besotted owners, Tom and Pamela.
