Home for Irish Setter Lovers Around the World
No future. No chance. That was start of 2010 for Thomas. See http://irishsetters.ning.com/profiles/blogs/therapy-setter-needs-th... Thomas is now in focus for matings with both Irish red and white setters and Irish red setters.
His owner Tonny Labohm made him after a shelter-period in my kennels into the most eyecatching Irish setter of the Netherlands, starring in the Animal Event and lately at the stand of the Irish Setter Club of the Netherlands on the Amsterdam Winners show. He caught much more attention than showsetters. "Wow, looks like setters in my youth" many a visitor said.
As well he fulfilled the Hunting course of the ISCN as one of the best (the best was his halfbrother Harry). Looks like a Rolling Stonetrick: from nowhere to anywhere. In my view one of the best setterstories for 2010/2011.
Good luck to all of you!

I Hope that Thomas as well as Harry will compete in some field trials next year?
The Irish setter is in great need off those dogs!
I myself can't wait till it is spring again!
Join the Danish party or train/trial elsewhere. We need to get the Irish setter back on its original trail especially for its health. Aint that the best 2011 wish?
Looks like Thomas and his owner are heading for a special year. I'l be looking out for your next blog 'Thomas - Part III'
Good luck to all!
