Ginger was our first setter. Now I am the proud owner of Pallas Green Kells and Pallas Green Gina.
About Me:
Hi,
my name is Astrid and I am the proud owner of two Irish setters. My first setter was Ginger Obvious Red and she was born on may the 29th 2002. Unfortunately, Ginger was not a healthy dog, she was an epileptic and had MO.
She passed away on the 24th of july 2010. Her memoriam is on: http://www.hooley-irish-setters.co.uk/menu/in-memory/ginger-obvious...
Since may 15th 2011 we are the proud owners of Pallas Green Kells. Kells was born on November 26th 2009 and she is a working setter. After Ginger I made the decision that I never wanted a setter from show lines again. We are very happy that we could have Kells. She is the joy of my life!
Since 29-7-2012 we have two Irish in the house. Kells her mother will live with us and enjoy her retirement.
In October 2012 my kennel name was registered. The goal of the Ceanannas kennel is to breed healthy Irish that are capable to work.
Why are you applying for membership?
A. I am a human wanting to contribute to the community
Hi Astrid! Thank you so much for your Birthday wishes, but I accidentally entered the wrong month. Please apologize my mistake. Wish you a happy and healthy new Year 2011! All the best Barbara
Thank you very much for the link I can't bring myself to try and read it at this moment in time. Just a little bit raw at the moment, but will give it a go later, when I have calmed down a bit...just feel sick all the time...can't stop thinking how frightened she must be..Irish Setters are not good in big packs...and over 100 abandoned dogs where she was left is just too sad to think about...but thank you again Dee and the gang
Hello. When Gypsie died, I hadn't her pedigree yet and I didn't ask the breeder to give it to me as the dog was dead. But one of my friend is the owner of Gypsie's sister, I can ask for the pedigree if you want.
Dank je. Toen keek ze echt wel heel schattig. Ondertussen is Hoshiko
2 jaar en na een kleine pubertijds-crisis, mijn allergrootste vriend. Zeer intelligent en erg aanhankelijk.
Ja, hoe gaat dat. Op zoek naar een naam voor mijn nieuwe pup ! Het moest met de letter 'H' beginnen. Ik wilde een naam met betekenis en één waarop ze zou reageren, zo kwam ik uit bij een Japanse naam. Hoshi- betekent 'Ster' en -ko wordt meestal achter de naam geplaatst als het om een meisje gaat, en betekent eigenlijk 'kind'. Dus dat werd het dan , my 'Star-child' was born ;)
Hi, thanks for the friend request, Hawk had his first seizure 6/1/10 and has only had 2 GM and 3 PM. he is two months seizure free and is not on any medication as his seizures so far (fingers crossed) are very far apart. Hope you are your are doing well.
Hi Astria! Have a new family member - I am very happy for you! Has Kells settled in well? And she like your cats? Wish you all the best with her. Barbara
Happy Birthday Astrid!!!!!! I would love to be able to come and offer you the B-cake with candles and see how Kells will react ... I am sure she will make this day very special for you :-)
Had a great day.....dinner with my daughter and her family and a bear....that wasn't so good...went straight to my head...lol....but perhaps that was good...seems one drink and I am smashed....ha ha....
Thank you for your thoughts for me....Dee and the kids
Kind memories for Ginger. Big hugs for Kells. Time out for both of us to go and look at beautiful photos of IS running free with sticks, sitting in camping chairs etc. Better still like me, grab you lovely Irish and enjoy outside. Let Eva C's comment hang there alone like a useless rag flapping in the wind.
Astrid many people realise that Ginger and you lived through a nightmare. The health checks are a positive thing and your posting of the links is a positive thing. Thank you for sticking with the breed. We need to support breeders who are not Kennel Blind or push popular sire syndrome. They are around and when you find one celebrate them. The dream comments I like to believe are out of ignorance or stupidity. They would hurt anyone who has watched a loved dog go through pain and suffering from a serious disease. Hopefully you can manage silence is golden, as the last reply is toxic and not worthy of discussion.
Hi Astrid, the boys are doing very well, too much energetic these days ... must be the Spring or I am seriously getting older :-) Waiting to go for their walk in the forest ... they hate to wait ... so impatient!!!
my new gardeners ... Mac chewing everything and Darwin supervising of course :-)
showing Mac ... a wonderful gentleman teaching us the trade....
Thanks, Astrid! How was your time in Sweden? Did you see the sun this time? We saw houses half washed-out by the floods in the news (from Sweden) this year! All the best, C & J
Thank you Astrid, for your nice comment on my blog! I hope you are all well and Kells and Gina are keeping you busy. It's lovely when you have two reds that can play together but two would be too narrow for us in the small VW bus. All the best, C & J xxx

Dat zou voor de ierse setter in Nederland geweldig zijn!
En ik verzeker je het is geweldig om een setter aan het werk te zien!

Ja, ik vondt het jammer dat het niet in een meer natuurlijkere setting plaats vondt.
Maar Gerard deed het goed.
