Profile Information:

How many Irish Setters do you have?
At present 2011 I have two
How long have you owned Irish Setters?
Since 1976.
About Me:
I got my first dog at age 12, a little cross bred spaniel. A few years later I had Cocker Spaniels. In 1976 I obtained my first Irish Setter and have been involved in owning, breeding and showing Irish Setters ever since, 33 years. Unfortunately, I lost my wonderful Brody (Pheasant of Clonageera at Cloonminda) before Christmas 2008, aged thirteen and a half. I now have Darby (Clannrua Donard at Cloonminda) now just over four years old and the new addition, Bailey (Clannrua Donard at Cloonminda born Jan. 2010). I have never had more than three Setters at any one time as I worked full-time and believed if I kept larger numbers I would not be able to give them the time and attention they deserve.

    Congratulations-nice boy! Thought I'd say hi from across the pond, especially since we share the same last name. My great great grandfather Hughes was from Armagh but ended up in the US and finally in Canada-maybe we're cousins? Anyway, nice win!
