Finding first feathers

[Henk ten Klooster]

Finding first feathers in a young setters life is a life experience. Guinness O'Conloch owned by Brigitte, keeps her red setter in place, helped by trainer Gerard Mirck.

A small group of working enthusiasts started a scheme of training in the Netherlands, nearly all newcomers. A majority is female and young.

What Brigitte thinks of it. "Wow", she says. "great to be active with your setter like this". Guinness does obedience and agility as well plus some showing.

Presence of quite a few of his brothers and sisters of a litter by Echlin O'Conloch x American import Redwing White Lighning (FDSB and FCI-registered) is a pleasure for her as well.

This course looks like a great chance for young owners (female;-)) to get to know field work. Good luck to them all!
