I'm a small hobby kennel, and don't breed often. Usually to add to my own dogs. I love the conformation ring and enjoy meeting new people.
I had a Irish Setter as a young girl, but my husband and I got our first family Irish in 1972. She was the best. I started showing in obedience and conformation in 1989 and boy have I learned a lot in the past 19 years, and met some of the world's best people.
Heh... my blog post was not meant to be in public yet. I just couldn't remove it. I'm using Opera as my browser and obviously this site is not working correctly with it. Anyway, the photo is in my photos. I'll try later to add it in the blog again...
I goofed. If you were once on my friend list and now you don't see yourself , please ask me to be your friend.
I thought I was on a different friends list and I was cleaning out some request I'd sent out that have never replied, and I started removing people and after about 5 people I realized I was removing people I want to still be my friend.
If you find I've bumped you, please forgive me. Gosh I hate days like this.
Sorry Loma... Of course I'll be your friend : ) I was making my 'debut' in the BOB ring this weekend, and wasn't paying attention to what was going on here!

One of Toby's greatest talents is being a ham, especially when he's in costume. He's very lovable but not too bright or coordinated. He had to wear shirts for two weeks to protect sutures and staples holding his armpit back together after he tore it open. Scrub tops fit perfectly and helped save the necks of my t-shirts. Just couldn't help putting my stethoscope around his neck and snapping a pic for fun!
I was gone for the weekend and left shortly after subscribing.
I confess not to understanding exactly how this list works, but I guess as time goes on, I will learn.
I'm on Setter's L, too. I live in Minntonka, MN
Hi Loma, I feel I know you. I have Windwood Canadian Snowbird a Windwood Inferno baby... your grandson. I will get some pictures of Jet up so you can see him. He is a handful! paula
Hi Loma,
Thanks for commenting on Jessa's video -ewwwwww no, it's not an animal, she's playing with a pine cone that has fallen from the tree. Being an only child, she has fun with just about anything. Thank goodness no small dead animals yet!!
Loma, you might remember fixing up this photo() for me, of my grand old lady Sasha, on Settersteps. Thanks again for doing that.
Hi Loma, We live in the Maryland area of the States. I have owned four setters in my life, usually one at a time while owning other breeds. I had shown our first dog (a red doberman) in obediendce and my husband fell in love with Golden Retrievers, since that time we have rescued two of them which have shared the home with our setters. The last ten years we also shared our home with a little long hair dachshund.This past summer we lost our 12 1/2 yr Irish and 14 yr dachshund within weeks of each other, this left our 9 yr Golden going down quickly from grief, refusing to eat, etc. I came across Riley in the rescue dogs in Blackburg and we brought him into our home, I have no doubt that he has saved Sasha's life by coming to our home. He is a very fun guy! My first male dog since my doberman 30+ years ago. My setters have always been home pets, no breed showing as they are usually rescued dogs. As a very little girl I fell in love with the Irish, they are truly my heart dogs.
We live back on 18 acres surrounded by trees on the sides of the property and on two sides we have Antietam Creek. The dogs have a 2 acre area enclosed by invisible fencing which they mind well, we also take them on long walks thru the other areas nearly everyday.
I hope this gives you an insight to who we are. Blessings, Mary
Hi Loma,
I just wanted to tell you that if you go to my page I have some new pics of Jet. He is a grandbaby of your Abbott. He is my Windwood Inferno boy (Dante). He is 8.5 mo. Paula
Where did you get your scarf for the dogs. Scout is drinking alot of water because of the meds he is on and his ears are always wet. I dry them when he comes in the house but, he is trying to sneak in so he does not have to go through having his chin and ears dried
