About Me:
I have imported two Irish Setters dogs being Ginger Meggs (Imp UK) in 1977 and Ciaran Dariabar (Imp UK) in 1988 from the late Marjorie Jarosz (Joanma's).

Over the years, I have bred only two litters of Irish and hope to bred another next year.

In 1995 I bred my current bitch, Irishfield Riona Ciara using Myra Thomas-Rhodes (Amhurst) Swedish imported dog Copper's Prins Trollmane (Imp Sweden) over a bitch I bred by my last UK import out of a Amhurst bitch, Amhurst Ragsdale Regae.

My young daughter and I have 2 rescue dogs (a desexed orange belton English Setter bitch, Cleo and a desexed Maltese dog, Charlie; 5 rescue cats; 5 pure bred dwarf lop and mini lop rabbits, silkie bantams, Pekin duck, birds and an old Jersey cow named Annabelle who is a pet and very tame and friendly.

My other passion is pure bred Arabian horses who I have owned since 1985. I have bred 6 pure breds since 1988. I used to show them very successfully at major shows in the mid 1980's to late 1980's both in hand and under saddle. I have 4 stallions and 2 mares plus a 30 yr old pure bred Welsh mare my daughter still rides but is about to retire and an 21 yr old Arabian pony mare we recently acquired who my daughter is having riding lessons on.

We live on acreage on the outskirts of Sydney, Australia.
