About Me:
I got my first setter when I was 18years old. Not kowing much about buying a pedigree dog I chose to get my 1st one from Gamston Kennels in Nottinghamshire. I studied the breed first and saved up, as my parents would not let me have a dog until I was 18yrs old. As a child I suffered badly from Ashma and was not allowed furry pets. My Irish Red Setter arrived and it was not until I had had him for 4 months that the vet told me he had a problem with his eyes..

    Welcome Jean. Like you I have owned setters for years and we couldn't have any other breed.

    Hi Jean, you are so right- it is if setters weave a magic spell about us! I am about to get my fifth setter, but my springer is equally as gorgeous, if a lot more hard work!! :0)
