Welcome to the site!!!
I like all your hunting photos. You must spend lots of time to teach your dogs. And it looks they enjoy it very much!
Marta & Sarah :-)
Dear Renata,
I've have heard a lot of good things from you and your dogs. Nice to see another irish fan who's aim is to prove that show line dogs can also work. Good luck!

Hi Renata,
My father’s always hunted with Irish Setters.
He think that the Irish setter are more persistent and with an active personality, but they learn more quickly along more time.
Congratulations for the results.

Dear Renata,
Thanks for the invitation, it would be very interesting to partecipate on Polish trials, but I decided to enter Andy only one more time here in Hungary at the Saint Hubert with one of my hunter friends and then retire him from trials. He will be 8 in January and he earned to enjoy the rest of his life as a hunting dog:). Maybe with my next dog - till then I try to save some money for it:)
Bye, Petra

Hi!
Are you doing your judge exam that you will assist judges on these trials or is it something else? I thought there were much more working Irishes in Poland than in Hungary. Why do you think people prefer other breeds to hunt and trial with in Poland?

Dear Renata,
First of all I'm wishing you good luck to complete the judge exam!
The reason why Irishes are not so popular in Hungary is numerous. First, the same as in Poland we have no breeders who select for hunting, then, we have the very popular breed the Hungarian Vizsla which is widely spread and they prefer use them or the German Shorthaired Pointer because of the short hair (Hungary is full burrs). Hungarian Vizslas are said to be easier to handle and they are more likely to hunt to satisfy their owner and not for their own satisfaction. Their search range is narrower, said to be search the shotgun distance. This is pretended because here in Hungary pheasant and hare huntings are organised for all the hunting society once per week in the season (from 20 to 40 guns at the same time in a line). You can immagine that there is no need for dogs who search wider then 20 mts! It is quite hard to keep a setter in this distance when it wants to explore the whole area:) But to tell you the truth these HVs are mostly not well trained hunting dogs but just dogs. (Don't misunderstand me, there are several HV owners who train their dogs, but this is a minority in respect to the whole breed).This is why last year every time a pheasant or a hare was lost or wounded the battle was stopped and I was called there with Andy to search for the lost game!
So my aim is to prove that Irish Setters are very good hunters and can be also used for versatile work! But they are not for everyone, not for stupid killers, Irish Setters have to be earned!
I read that your Jager had a car accident, what kind of injury did he suffer and what are his symptoms now?

Dear Renata,
Here hunters do think that they buy or get a dog with or even without pedigree and it has to work!!!!!
I'm really very sorry about Jager's legs!!! He is surely said about not being able to go on long shootings! Do vets say that they can improve the situation with another operation? How did the accident happen? Do you live in a flat or a house? In the city or somewhere outside? Where can you train your dogs?
Sorry for the huge amount of questions, but I have a curious personality.
Bye, Petra
