Irish Setter Discussions

HERE IT IS!!

and another one - sorry they're a bit big!!

That's a very pretty photo helen I've only seen photos of working ones but they do look quite different!


Eloquence wow :smt007 :smt007 great photos!

thanks brandiesnap.

i like them - but then i would!!

I just love the faces when their tounges are dragging on the ground.

They are all gorgeous! Not that I am at all biased ;-) ;-)

Do irish Setters dribble and spread drool a lot?

Yep, they do. I can't remember ever seeing handlers in any other breed carrying a slobber cloth routinely in the show ring, but we in Irish Setters always do.

Thanks Dawn, I didn't know that.

Hi Dawn,
I'd be lost without my slobber cloth when showing the English Setters. The Pointers are brilliant though, you don't even have to take a brush in the ring with you.

Really well I never. I've never noticed that.

I hope the Red and Whites aren't the same, had my heart set on one one day!

Will have to check the IRWS ring next Sunday for slobber cloths now!

My gorgeous pup.



Yum yum. Mum's comming.



Oh Ryan, do go away lol!!



This one shows his coat off. It's all wavy on his back



Mac. My red. I love him to bits

Lovely photos. He is gorgeous :smt049 :smt049 :smt049

oh bless!!!!

he's gorgeous. welcome to the setter world.

Awww. thanks. I had one when I was a baby. Everyone loved him and we still talk about him today - although i don't remeber him. So we just had to get another when we had the oppurtunitty

my passion started as a child, i went to primary school with a boy called william and his parents had one(kerry), she was gorgeous and i've never forgotten her. i always wanted one. we got jazzie at 8 weeks(shes 3 in july) and kenny(6) we rescued last summer. i could honestly not live my life without a setter!!

so hows the re- call ??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

how old is he by the way?

Ryan, he's a babe. :smt007

Well, we took him at the forest for the first time out ever lol, and he did wander off abit but he soon realise where we were when we called him.

He's offically aloud out on monday so we'll see then. I don't think he'd run away though TBH ...

His recall in the house, garden etc. is excellent. so, he shouldn't be that bad ... We'll have to see

He was born on 7th October. And we've had him 4 weeks/1 month tomorrow (saturday)

He's 20 Weeks
Do you think he's Show quality? just out of intrest?

hiya,

oh happy times eh! bless him, he is gorgeous. i actually don't know if he is show quality as i don't show either of mine. you had best ask scorpio, nursey or rachelsetters - i think they all show - but i'm not 100%!!

i think he's lush!!

what lines is he from - just out of interest?
