My love affair with Irish Setters began in 1980, when I started
showing this breed. Throughout the
years, I have found that
Irish Setters are very versatile dogs with rollicking personalities,
being able to do most anything you ask of them. I enjoy being
involved in field work and obedience with my “kids”, as well as
conformation. This is one sporting breed that has the 3
B's....Brains, Birds and Bid-ability!
Shortly after
I began breeding, I became aware of the genetic health
problems
that can affect this breed.
Many breeds suffer from genetic health issues, not solely
Irish Setters.
That being said, I sincerely believe it is the
responsibility of the
breeder to try to eliminate or
avoid those problems whenever possible. Therefore, it
has been my quest to be extremely diligent regarding health issues
along with producing great temperaments. Meadow Run Irish
Setters are tested for all genetic diseases and I breed only the of
healthiest dogs along with solid temperaments. I strongly feel
that
temperaments are as important as health issues when considering a
pet or a "performance dog" (field, obedience, agility or the breed
ring). I definitely strive to produce that healthy dog in order
that we may enjoy many years with a wonderful companion.
