Within this website I have tried to include details of many of
the dogs from my line together with memories, pedigrees,
photographs and records. I hope you will agree that the history
of this distinctive and most aristocratic breed of dog should be
shared by all.
My small but very successful kennel was founded in 1970 and my
first litter was born in 1972 when I was living at Bardon Hill
in Leicestershire - hence the origin of my kennel name.
All the current Irish setters at Bardonhill can be traced back
to the highly influential brood bitch Moyna April at Bardonhill,
whelped in 1978, and bred by Barbara Birch.
Our home is in the East of England in the beautiful Lincolnshire
Wolds and besides Irish Setters, our life is also shared with a
Deerhound and several rescue cats.
Whether you are seeking your first Irish Setter for a companion
or you are an established exhibitor or breeder, trying to trace
the ancestry of your line, I think you will find my website
interesting.
Since our website was first established, several years ago, it
has given me great pleasure to receive many emails from owners
of descendants of Bardonhill Irish Setters and other lovers of
the breed from all over the world.
We are continuing to develop and restyle the many rapidly
expanding pages. We hope you will enjoy it all.
Where possible I will also be pleased to offer help and advice
for any owner of an Irish Setter. |
