Profile Information:

How many Irish Setters do you have?
At present 2011 I have two
How long have you owned Irish Setters?
Since 1976.
About Me:
I got my first dog at age 12, a little cross bred spaniel. A few years later I had Cocker Spaniels. In 1976 I obtained my first Irish Setter and have been involved in owning, breeding and showing Irish Setters ever since, 33 years. Unfortunately, I lost my wonderful Brody (Pheasant of Clonageera at Cloonminda) before Christmas 2008, aged thirteen and a half. I now have Darby (Clannrua Donard at Cloonminda) now just over four years old and the new addition, Bailey (Clannrua Donard at Cloonminda born Jan. 2010). I have never had more than three Setters at any one time as I worked full-time and believed if I kept larger numbers I would not be able to give them the time and attention they deserve.
