We live in rural Dorset. Sadly we lost our beautiful girl setter Ruby in September 2010 from IMHA at the age of 7. We have 2 cocker spaniels : Frankie aged 14 and a half and Molly aged 12, and 2 Irish Setters : Merlot (Brabrook Red Merlot - mother Sh Ch Brabrook Red Rose and father Sh Ch Riverbrue Dionysus) - who has definitely brought the special joy of Irish setters back into our home and his new friend our beautiful puppy Darcy (Laganglen Bollinger - father Siochanna Irish Legend x mother Callista Corccan)

Stephenshill Jessica (Jessica) 1976 - 1988

    The west Dartmoor training club may be your best bet for setter and pointer training. Terry Harris of sparkfield pointers and Sylvia and Nicky Ackerley of Yennadon Gordon Setters may be able to help. They used to attend training days on Dartmoor.

    The southern pointer club organises training days held on Salsbury Plain Erica Parsons is the secretary, they live in Devon.

     

    Hope this is of some help!
