Ilona Crotogino replied to Joel Sonnenberg's discussion 'Safe Chews'

Hi Joel, Have the same problem, even with raw bones. Our boy just swallows the bits and throws them up. People tell me it's not dangerous, but I don't feel good about it. Have you ever looked for cow hoofs? Here is Australia, we get them in our pe…

Ilona Crotogino replied to Louise Perry's discussion 'is adolescence that bad?'

First of all, don't worry! Our boy Anton humped his sister when he was 4 months old, and we - up in arms, called the breeder "Help, he's horny already!" She had a good laugh and told us that it's quite normal. It's nothing to do with sex or with tee…

Ilona Crotogino replied to Phil du Plessis's discussion 'Regarding new members without any references: Hazel Moore and Lyric Martin'

Just wondering: What references should be used for new members? Isn't it easy to invent profiles and fake dogs? No matter what control systems you use, a forum like this is not 100 per cent controllable.

Ilona Crotogino replied to Christine's discussion 'How do you keep your Setter`s teeth clean?'

Hi Christine! Good question, I would like to ask the same. All the vets tell you to brush your dog's teeth. However, the breeder told me that bones are enough to keep their teeth clean. We brushed our dogs' teeth twice or three times maximum. I am…

About Me:

Anton and Gina are our first Irish Setters. We live in Western Australia, where they live the good life on the beach and in their big backyard. In their spare time, they help us with the gardening. Big surprise, we still have some flower beds...

Update: Anton has become a handsome young man, who does as he is told. Gina is a pretty young lady and my sport companion. We love our jogs on the beach, spiced up with frisbee catching, ball games and training. Once a week we go to agility class. Like her brother Anton, Gina is a friendly, well mannered young dog.

I have had my Brazenwinds dogs for many years as my old boy, Monty is 11 years old and my old girl, Emby turns 11 on 4 December, 2009. Can't remember how I found out about Sandy, but I think through a mutual friend or just seeing pics of her dogs in the show ring at that time.

Chat soon

At 8:01am on May 4, 2009, Lynn Spencer said…: Hi Ilona, Was just looking at your photo's. Your two pups are just gorgeous. We also have 2 Setters, one Irish & one English. We got them as baby puppies together also and absolutely loved watching them grow up together. They are now just turned 7 and are the best of friends. Always have been. We went to pick up our Irish pup and their was a litter of English as well. Needless to say we thought about it for a couple of days, then home came my English girl. You will have lots of fun and I'm sure they just adore each other. We're from Oz also. We live in Melbourne.
Lynn & girls.

Yes, I don't mind having a chat about retrieve work. Why don't you email me privately and then we can chat away to our heart's content on all the 'working' aspects of Setter training.
Have a good bank holiday.

die einen vermissen den Schnee, ide anderen die Wärme. Seit November haben wir Schnee und Temperaturen bis -26°. Gerade heute habe ich wieder 1 Stunde Schnee geschaufelt :-( Aber, doch .. es ist wunderbar! Und die Jungs lieben es.
Nein, das die Zwei stubborn sind kann ich eigentlich nicht sagen.
Glenn ist eine Seele von Hund. Er hat als erster Setter die "Prevent a Bite" Zulassung bestanden. Ein Programm, das Hunde ausbildet die dann in Schulen und Kindergärten zur Vorbeugung von Bissunfällen arbeitet. Etwa gleichgesetzt mit Therapiehund. Zudem arbeiten wir viel im Hundesport. Begleithund und Sanitätshund. Er ist extrem ausgeglichen.
Jamie, mein kleiner wilder Wahnsinn ist eine absolute Sportskanone. Mit ihm absolvierte ich vor seinem zweiten Lebensjahr bereits erfolgreich mehrere Sport -Prüfungen. Er ist stürmisch und enthusiastisch, will immer arbeiten und gibt sich unglaublich Mühe, alles richtig zu machen.
Wohl wahr, die Zwei könnten nicht unterschiedlicher sein! Sehr spannend :-)) auch immer wieder für mich..

Viele Grüsse nach Down under ...
Esther

Viele Grüsse aus der Schweiz

Egan was very stressed but about midnight when it's worst we went in to my room and and then he just got to sleep but when the biggest ones were he wasn't very confident of if he should sleep or trie to hide behind som boxes ;) but he was better than the first reaction was.
