Are you limited to one dog by choice, or would you have more if possible?

I used to have 14 dogs/bitches, a mixture of English Setters, Irish Setters and Pointers, I was in my element, they were the loves of my life and I miss those days, it was only 3 years ago but it…Continue

Storing food for one dog

When I had all of my dogs, (14 at one time), I would buy my complete food in bulk and my freezer was full of meat to add to it. The complete never had time to go stale as a 15kg bag would last a week…Continue

Hi. I have just one Irish 5 years old Felix and we are always together. I dont work due to illness and he takes care of me on my worst days. I live in the countryside and go for long walks with him where he can run free at least three times a day. He is my best friend and I love him to bits. Sometimes I dream of getting a female to breed because I think an Irish Setter is the most wondeful dog and I want to share that with everybody but so far just a dream and I am very happy with just Felix and I.

Sadly I am down to one setter now.  The first 6wks or so were awful for poor Gracie but she is now back to her old self and apart from looking sad when I go to work for a few hrs she seems very happy. She gets lots of individual attention and there are no boundaries in the house, all doors are left open so that she doesn't feel excluded. I very rarely walk alone so she gets to rough and tumble and do all the pack stuff while she on her walks. I cannot even think about another dog at this moment in time but who knows what will happen in the future.

Thanks Debbie, you came to Crufts a couple of years ago to support Inca didn't you.  We have all been so sad she was a very special dog who touched the hearts of many people.  Gracie has taken over the PAT vest and in true setter style is bringing a bit of joy to people's lives. We are so lucky to have them xx

Thank you to all those who have joined.  I have a confession to make, I now have 2 English Setters, little Elkie joined us 2 weeks ago and has turned our lives upside down :-)

Hi everyone,

after many years with three or two setters I'm now only with my little Kasia. And that will by for sure for some years so I can join this group eligibly:-)
