Is this dog in Australia? No field trials here in January.
You are right about ticks, I probably should be more careful but skinning a whole deer is quite a job :))
The dogs clear the whole deer in less than two days, leaving not a trace of it, I wouldnt want a rotting deer in my dog run. They do roll in ro…
I guess the ultimate chew for my dogs is the occasional road kill deer! We get a few of those as we live in a hill area crossed by only a single track road with a lot of deer on the surrounding hills.
I leave the whole deer carcase in the dog run, a…
If I were using any kind of dried meat/tripe, I would want to know what preservative has been used in it.
A big agricultural and pet store in this area sells loose dry dog meat by the pound, which my dogs like, but as it is sold loose there is no in…
There were warnings several years ago about giving rawhide chews to dogs, partly because there had been cases of long unravelled strips of rawhide causing blockages in the intestines, and also it was said that some of them came from countries like C…
Very impressed by your dogs. Again, doesnt it make a different when a working setter is trimmed and groomed, ring trained and handled by somebody who knows how to do it? They look quite different
Also interested to see you are another breeder with…
Raw bones in their natural state fron the butchers.
The safest chews I know of , and which I give even to small puppies, are deer antlers. I use the little roe deer antlers for small puppies and bigger red deer antlers for older puppies. They are a…

Merete & Thomas said… - Thank you Margaret, it was really exciting at the field trial, and you can imagine the feeling when the judge announced that Skadi got her 1.AK. Actually now she is qualified as "Elitehund" = Elite dog, meaning that she is recommended by the breed comittee for breeding. This is one level above "Avlshund" = Breed dog, which also is recommended, but not "as much" as the Elitehund. And this is by the standards of the Irish (red) setter club!
It is good to hear that we get two more IRWS to Norway from field trial lines, now lets hope the owners gets the best out of them in field trials :)
And please keep us informed on any good dogs "over there" with above average level of hunting desire and intensity, we are now searching for a dog for a possible mating with our bitch Skadi.

I think I am going to enjoy visiting this site regularly. Seeing so many beautiful setters with their loving owners is heartwarming. So many of the red and whites look like Maura and Chelsea, I hope to be able to Catch up with some of their offspring and learn of their achievements.
What have you been up to since we last met?

- Hi Margaret
I tried to email you but never successful. Then came across this site and took the opportunity to make contact after all this time. We are all fine and Maura is doing well. I will put some photos and footage up for you to see shortly. How are you?

Dave Wittrick said… - Tried to make contact with them around the time their litter was born and spoke to Angela. I gave them my details and she said they would like to meet me but they never got back to me. What with family problems I never chased it up. Shame really as it would have been nice to have a local contact in R&W who was also in Falconry but I didn't want do be pushy. As I understand it from what I was told last year they are moving away to live abroad in the near future.
Karen Lockwood asked me to come onto the IRWSC of GB Working SC last year so I will do my best to be of service and we will see where that takes me. Toby is always going to be limited by his HD so I don't no how far we can go. Peter seemed to think he had real potential if I could get past this but without KC reg I cannot compete anyway so maybe I will see if he can cope with Beating and Picking up and add that to his CV. Maybe I will have to wait for my next dog to progress further on the Pointing Dog side.

- Hi Margret
Was hoping I might have the opportunity to organize a visit and meet you and your dogs while I was up on Peter's Novice Training week near Kelso with Toby. Unfortunately time and the weather beat me. I just made it up to Old Meldrum with a Family friend from Stirling and nearly didn't get back with the snow and the ice in Aberdeen. The Training week was great though and both me and Toby gained so much.
