Old pictures of setters who belonged to my grandparents

Me too! I want to show you all pictures of setters that belonged to my "ancestors", my grandfather and my grandmother.

This Irish Red Setter was my grandmothers and the picture is taken the first of May 1940in Helsinki. Sadly I have not found his registration papers yet.

In the summer

And here is my grandmother with her dearly loved setter

This english setter is from the old kennel Huntingfield which exists even today. Picture taken 1957

And this is my dear friend from my childhood. He is winning CACIB when this picture is taken 1975
