In my family we always had dogs (mainly german shepherd crosses). But I have never thought that I will be doing so many things with pedigree dogs. Everything began during holidays on lakes. I met Ruda - red irish girl - beautiful, friendly, polite, quiet and not barking at other dogs running along the fances what is typical for german shepherds and what I hate all my heart. I was delighted with Ruda's character.
A month later I had my own little irish girl - Bajka (On the Sunny Side of the Street z Arislandu). I admired her character even more. For me she still is a perfect setter. First of all beautiful, with so balanced character and an addition of so wonderful madness as only setters have:-)
Without any plans, slowly, life showed me next steps - first shows, field trials, dogotherapy, puppies (only once). That was the beginning of my kennel - Bajkowe Rudzielce (2000). I kept two Bajka's children: Kruszyna and Pielgrzym. Life with three setters is crazy but it is worth every effort.
I lost Pielgrzym in 2007 because of babeshia. Since autumn 2011 I have new little girl - Kasia of McBirdy;-). I thought I will be much longer with my three girls but soon enexpectedly I lost Kruszyna. And last spring I had to say goodbye my almost 15 yo Bajka.
So now I am again with one little red girl.
Hi there Anna
I have had a few dogs in my time and they have 'gone' at different ages between 18 months and 151/2 years but they are all remembered with lots of love for what each of them has brought to my life. I miss them all. But truly believe that we will be together again, one day...;o))
As for being fierce only one of my Akitas was like that, and that was the puppy bitch she was an absolute horror. Her sisters owner always said of 'Zen' that she never started anything but always finished it..so true of all of them, but they didn't like many other animals, although I have to say she loved my chickens they tasted wonderful to her, especially after the 'hunt' of catching them..All the best and if you see my wee boy Newton give him a bit of a hug...Dee and the gang
Hi there Anna
Well I could tell you some stories of dogs and hens but not nice, luckily my dogs and my hens, so no insults only to myself.
Speak soon Dee and the gang
Thank you so much for your congratulations! It is great having friends out there in the virtual world who are thinking of you at such a special day.
Anna, thanks for you comment in camera corner. My daughter did the 2000m and 5000m together with the dogs and was German Champion at 5000 metres.
With our "first generation" setters we prefered to train long distance running rather than obedience lessons because they were absolutely reliable in the fields, woods ...
Today things have changed ... you know :-(
Cześć Anna! U nas prawdziwa zima, dużo śniegi i mróz. A tym fotografiom już rok, lecz nie zmieniliśmy się. Może jutro w lasie na przechadzce zrobię nowe foto.
Witam:)
dzięki za miłe słowo :) będziemy się w tym roku starać jeszcze bardziej tak aby nasze polskie rudzielce nie musiały się chować po kątach wchodząc na zagraniczne ringi:)
Każdy zaciśnięty za nas kciuk będzie dodawał nam otuchy:)
Pozdrawiam
Ewa
hej Ania, ja widziałam chłopaków tylko na zdjęciach, zazdroszczę Tobie i czekam na więcej fotek! następnym razem jak będziesz ich odwiedzać, to do roboty :)
Thanks Anna,
Jack and Ossie were 2 of the dearest Setter and brought us such joy. Ossie was with Jack from the time he was 8 weeks old and he passed away 2 days after Jack I really think his heart was broken like ours.M
Oh Anna, thank you so much! Marcin Wyrostek, he is great, brilliant! I never heard classic music so fantastic! The first he play, Vivaldi, seasons winter is faboulos.
Oh please, send me the mp3 :-)

Hello Anna, and thank you for your comment! I'm glad I have not lost my touch totally and that my few b&w's are beginning to speak again! I spent many hours in the darkroom, but that's years ago, and it takes time to train the eye again to see in b&w and also to see the beauty in it :-)) Cornelia
Oow I enjoy all the wunderfull Photo's ..
Taking photo's off dogs is my second hobby..
To be honest , my setters are more than a hobby , its a way of life..
so I understand your lost of Pielgrzym very good ..
Hi there Anna
You are so lucky having spring, it is snowing here at the moment, I wish I could have been there for the cake..I envy you that, great way to celebrate..;o))
Glad you had a great day
Dee and the gang
Aniu spóźnione nieco (bardzo rzadko tu bywam), ale bardzo bardzo serdeczne życzenia, dużo, dużo szczęścia i zdrówka. Oczywiście przede wszystkim wiele radości i zadowolenia z dziewczynek.
Pozdrawiamy Cię bardzo gorąco
Ewa, Piotr i Jonaszek
Oh my so do I...it was freezing with driving rain and snow today when I took Fin out for his walk today, just told Wanda that it made Fin appreciate the blaster when he came home, he was shaking with the cold and dripping wet, well so was I...
Dunfermline doesn't get too many tourists but of cause Edinburgh does, its heaving with them, we just don't go there unless we really have to in the summer, but it is very beautiful with the mountains all around, unfortunately I can't see them from my home any more, but it only takes a short journey to see them, and the beaches are wonderful to walk the dogs on, although Fin hasn't had that pleasure yet, but soon.
All the best Dee and the gang
Cześć Aniu,
jeżeli będziesz gdzieś opisywać swoje wrażenia z Crufta, bardzo Cię proszę o informację. Prawda pewnie jest taka, że trzeba tam po prostu być.
My mamy sporo planów na wiosnę. Zaczynamy od Ostrawy i Będzina (FT), potem Berlin, następnie Kalisz (FT), Praga i pewnie Bestensee. W czerwcu jedziemy na wakacje i potem będziemy planować lato i jesień. Na pewno pojedziemy na FT do Buska. Nie wiem co z Piotrkowem, bo w tym czasie jest Lipsk. Jak widzisz mamy nieco planów, a jeszcze myślę o rozpoczęciu czempionatu Łotwy i Ukrainy. Nie wiem jednak czy damy radę czasowo.
Cały czas ćwiczymy z Jonaszem do FT. Tylko te ptaki gdzieś znikają. Wczoraj objeździliśmy kilka pól i tylko dwa bażanty, oczywiście kiedy już sobie odpuściliśmy.Brakuje nam kuropatw i tego się boimy. Pamiętamy jednak słowa Pana Molinari, który mówił, że na FT 90 % to szczęście.
Myślę, ze to normalne, że seter w pewnym wieku więcej śpi. Jednak mam nadzieję, że Bajka czuje się dobrze. W Legnicy wyglądała świetnie. Dobrze utrzymane seterki zwykle mają się dobrze.
Dużo miziaczków dla Bajki i Kruszynki.
Witam Anna! Gratuluję z światłym świętem.
Jak ci spodobało się na Crufte? Które setery ci spodobały się? Ci pisałam, że jadę w kwietniu na dwie wystawy, lecz myślę trzeba jeszcze w lipcu przyjechać do Warszawy na CACIB. Czy potrafię znaleźć hendlera dla psów, a to sama mogę nie sprawić się.
Całuję wszystkich.
Zdravstvuj Anna! Ty bolszaja molodec, posmotret Cruft eto prekrasno. Fotografii sama delala? Zaehat v Warszawu v kwietne ne udastsa. No letom hotela by priehat.

Hi Anna. This was just a compliment. As you have noticed by yourself :)
I am glad that you have new camera and I am looking forward to your new photos. What equipment do you use (camera & lenses)?
