Quick Bio:
-purebred
Likes: Cats, small dogs, and puppies. Stalking and chasing squirrels up trees (though I'd never hurt them). Playing ball at the dog park!
Pet-Peeves: Being left at home when mom goes out. When she's at the dog park, and you've forgotten to bring a ball (*d'oh!*).
Favorite Toy: Beaten up tennis ball, raw hides, old cow hoof
Favorite Food: Chicken skin, chicken soup, yogurt, peanut butter. She finds the taste of hand lotion irresistable. :-P
Favorite Walk: Stalking squirrels on the way to the dog park.
Best Tricks: Walking backwards around the perimeter of the dog park. Catching a ball in the air. Tap dancing her way into your heart. :)
Arrival Story: Given to our family at the age of 2.5 years, because the breeder (in Ontario) just wanted to give Tatianna a good home. Tat was the Gamma female at the breeder's kennel, and lacked self-confidence. She had never lived in a house before, and behaved like a shy puppy for the first year in her new home. Now she is a lot more extraverted, and tells dominant dogs off at the dog park when they get too fresh with her. (You go girl!)
Bio: My family's dog, "Tatianna", is a sweet-natured Irish setter with a heart of gold. She normally lives with my mom, but during the summer of 2004, Tatianna split her time between staying with my father, my older brother, and I. Some of these photos were taken (July 7, 2004) in the family business, where Tatianna worked as "Head of Interspecies Relations." She drew a salary of dog biscuits, btw. :-P
Tatianna had a close brush with death, but with emergency life-saving surgery on New Year's Eve (Dec.31, 2004), she made it through with flying colours. She's my little miracle pup! Just one look at her smiling mug is sure to make you smile!

If your human is lucky enough to have an Irish Setter, they know the joy of living every moment to its fullest, and the beauty of the world through our eyes. I started this group because I wanted to find other Setters...it seems they are a rare breed in Canada.
Irish Setters, Irish Red & White Setters, and even Irish Setter mixes are more than welcome to join "Luck of the Irish"! And humans who are mourning the loss of an Irish Setter are encourage to reminisce (or send Tatianna or Bobby a Dogster message if you prefer).
Even if you’re another breed of dog, and you're interested in learning about Irish Setters...that's just great too. Feel free to start a new thread, or pose a Setter related question to the group. So go ahead and invite your friends.
So many friendly new faces...over 50 members are in our cozy little kennel. Make yourself right at home...there's plenty of biscuits and rawhides for everyone! :-)
