Back in the early sixties my dad purchased a female irish in KC. and had her bred to Henry Taylor's Whirlaway Chief. From that breeding I selected one of the females for my own and boy was I surprised in her work, both in the field and to me. This was a relationship that lasted 12 years with many stories on her relentless hunting. We raised no less than 5 liters that were purchased as far away as South America and Canada. I even ran Kris (my irish) againist some of the best dogs in the area and it was a one dog show. Due to the demise of quail in Missouri it didn't seem fair to raise setters to hunt quail that vanished from the area(thats is another story.

I am now 69 years old but I sure miss my Irish Setters.
