Glen and I made it into the local press...

This lovely picture of Glen (and me...) appeared in the local newspaper last saturday. During a training session in the woods for 'search and rescue' I found an old coin or amulett with an engraving of St. George on one side and Jesus in a sailing ship on the other. The inscription said 'In Tempestate Securitas' (roughly: safety in the storm) Not knowing what to do with it I sent it to the local press. They did some research and said it was a 'St.… Continue

The Black irish Setter

A very good friend has been taking my little Labrador Tara to the beach recently. We did think it was time for her to go, but the beach trips have helped her arthritis and also her ear cancer, so she has been enjoying life again.

Any way on this last beach trip Tara, who has trouble walking most days, took off like a bat out of hell. When I caught up with her, she was sitting down looking very disgruntled. Running along the beach with all the joy of living that is such a characteristic of… Continue

KAJAANI international

But the nicest results we got in Agility.

My Ami (almost in veteran age, turning 8yrs this April) did a clear… Continue

NEIVEN - new irish setters kennel

A few days ago I got a letter. In site was an information that my kennel name is registered in FCI ;) (FCI Number 1427/07)

matings which will serve the breed in Poland well. We are rather

interested in the quality of our litters not their quantity.

We would like our puppies to be not only show winners but above of all nice and… Continue
