- About Me:
- Since several years Irish Setters have been part of my life. The love and complicity that we share has been transformed into a true passion.
First Chickadee makes her entry into my life, she was supposed to be a dog, but destiny decided otherwise, and it was not such a bad thing after all, pure joy of which I didn't quite realise the enormity. With her came the discovery of the dog world: shows, obedience and even hunting. The show virus was quickly acquired as at her first show Chickadee was best puppy in show. Enough to say that I didn't have to be pushed into becoming passionately addicted. I have enjoyed some great moments at the shows with Chickadee. In 2006, she was Europasiegerin at Dortmund, consecreted best bitch in Belgium by the Belgian Irish Setter club and third best bitch in Holland. Beginning of 2007 she became German Champion.
The 4th April she had her first pups in the kennel where she was born and one of her daughters Girly Girl came to live with us. Girly don't needs to prove her worth in the show ring. She is not only already a German Champion but also Belgian Junior Winner 08, Dutch Junior champion and in 2008 she won Best in Show at the Junior Day of the Belgian Irish Setter Club at just 17months with an entry of some 80 junior Irish. Lately at Bath at only 25 months show in England she wins her entry into the English Kennel Club Studbook and a life qualification for Crufts, a great achievement which can only make me even more proud of choosing Girly.
26.05.2010 My dream come true, my first litter and the 2nd for Chickadee ! She give birth to 12 puppies (10 boys & 2 girls). From this litter a boy stayed with us, he is named "Scott" Riverwood Jungle Rock" He is the son of Multi & Int Sh Ch Sametsuz Sunset. He has already did a great impression on show by winning a lovely 3th best baby in show and 5th best baby in show . . . he just grow up like I want, the future will tell us if I have reason to believe in him ! ! ! Way to go Scott . . .

Since our local television visted us to film a portrait of the Irish Setter, Scott thinks he's a star and has all the caprice of a starlet; Last Sunday Scott wanted to see if the grass was truly greener on the other side of the fence, and I don't know how, as our fence is rather solid and high. But pass to the neighbours he did; Once I'd recuperated Scott I of course inspected him to see there was no damage, and I discovered a huge hole on his side where he'd ripped a large piece of skin…

How is Chickadee and Girly Girl doing? Thank you for inviting me!
Send you lots of love from Jolly & Blossom
Kind Regards, Mirjam
Perhaps I come to the Junior Day - Malinka is still in the good age, so I could bring her and Toffee. But it will be also good opportunity to see your Girly Girl in real ;-))))))). She looks sooooooo sweet on the photos!!!!
I´m glad to see you here.
Hugs and kisses to your lovely girls :o)
Kati.
Lovely girls and what a great web site you have - had a look and enjoyed what I saw!
Love your web site and your impressive dogs.
Your dogs are charming! Very pleasant for me to be here and to see you :)
You have really lovely girls. Big kisses for them and good luck for the future.
Best Greetings

comment se fait-il que mes commentaires soient accompagnés d'une croix rouge? C'est ainsi que par mégarde j'ai effacé le tien...
What a beautiful pictures on your website of Chickadee and Girly Girl when they are playing (august). Good luck next week at the young dog show!!! I do not go to it but I go to a little show here in the Netherlands with Blossom.
Kind Regards, Mirjam
Vos 2 filles sont vraiment magnifiques.
Bonne chances pour vos prochaines expos.
Peut-être aurons nous la chance de nous y rencontrer.
Amicalement,
Cécilia
Girly Girl suit les traces de sa maman, félicitations !!!
Si vous donnez des cours de présentation et de photo, je m'inscris.
Vous avez l'air bilingue français-anglais, venez nous rejoindre sur Frenchy pour dépanner les pauvres francophones.
Monique
un grand merci pour tous ces photos du Junior Day - enfin je sais qui a gagné le BIS. Félicitations à tous les petits de Chickadee et Dooley pour leur succès!
J'ai déjà rencontré les maîtres de Gypsie qui habitent à Belfort : ils m'avaient réservé une chienne. Je leur ai souhaité beaucoup de bonheur avec Gypsie mais ils n'ont pas donné suite.
Attention !!! Je vais te prendre au mot pour les cours de présentation : tu vas devoir animer une cession pour nous qui ne savons pas présenter nos chiens !!!
Amitiés
Monique
