Who are these "We" you speak of so often. Are you in some Mensa society. I never hear any of them speak up.
The last picture has nothing to do with my comment re the dog decidedly walking off a rock, nor was in made during Fred's tenure. It predates him by 15 years.

I don't see so much as an ampersand character as I do that of the Greek letter Omega with crossed ankles or tangled feet as viewed upside down. The two dots also escape me.
To me there is no mystery as to the setter sliding down a rock or landscape slope; in my experience setters love to swim if properly introduced to water, particularly as puppies in an exercise mode. My great setter "Smoke" would willingly retrieve birds I shot that landed in water,
provided he saw them fall. There was no such thing as handling him on a blind retrieve like a Lab. The engraving image probably depicts him entering the water or a steep ravine, while the other dog eyes his vectors for a more level land retrieve.
