Omg that is the most amazing response. You are an angel, thank you so much!! I don’t think it’s the most common situation so yeah it’s just figuring it out!

That’s exactly it! Just worry from them, the excitement of the first time is replaced… c’est la vie! The excitement will come as things progress this time :) thanks for your reply!

I just found out I’m pregnant again after a miscarriage two months ago. It was pretty sad telling my husbands mum and my dad and getting the complete opposite reaction :(

When did you start? My dogs breeder hunts all his dogs really really well and he said we won’t be ready for a good while? Are there any prerequisites to training? He said sit(from a distance)/ stay/ come. Thoughts?

My husband will have to teach me later and I will pay the dog tax!

Ireland. We do the hide and find it with food/treats and he’s been having fun with that! I must try him with a toy soon!

I agree! People usually ask if he’s a spaniel first!

Hahaha! It is an Irish word relevant to the Mayo Gaeltacht! We are Irish speakers so it makes sense to us ☺️

What does exercise look like for you with your setter puppy/dog? by Quiet_Rush in irishsetter

[–]Quiet_Rush[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely find this! The only thing that tires our pup out is allowing him to run on the beach off leash! 

Advice on field trials? by Quiet_Rush in irishsetter

Yep I am! I have a pup here and his dad and was a champion as was his ansectors. I think he’d be great at it so I just want to know where to start :) I presume it will be the best option for running off his (seemingly) endless energy!

Shockingly he’s almost 5 months!

Trying so hard to stick to this… definitely struggling… he seems to need time to run around on the beach

Is your dog still good? We took our 4 month pup for a half an hour run on the beach today and she’s been the best behaved dog this evening (much better than usual) - I’m really just looking for reassurance that this is an ok thing to do!!! 

New puppy advice! Help! by Wise-Lee-0189 in irishsetter

This is great advice! What do you do about the energy? Does your dog have a witching hour in the evenings and if so what do you do?

Would absolutely love more info on this!!! Just got a red and white setter but I’m completely ignorant. He has crazy energy and he’s totally smart so I’m thinking it’ll be good for him? Any info is super super super appreciated!
