This page is featuring some of the Irish Setters we have bred and are very proud of. All these dogs come from just 3 litters bred in 1994, 1997 and 2000. They have done really well for their new owners and we want to thank them for all the hard work and love they have given our "babies".

 

Lux J Ch red River Ankaranski with Kurt Mertens

 

Lux J Ch Red River Ankaranski (1994-1996), owned by Willy Duynekerke (v.d. Westerhuy) and Yvonne Hill-Decoster (Vicary's) was No. 3 Irish Setter Dog in Holland before his untimely death. River sired some lovely puppies f.e. Tara Gentilitly v.d. Westerhuy, Trevor Good Gracious v.d. Westerhuy, Hope v.d. Burg, Esmeralda v. Shans Tot Wildban etc. He is very much missed and remains always in our hearts.

Zafir Ankaranski with his handler

Our beautiful Zafir Ankaranski already travelled to the other side of the World to start his new life with his owner Mr Samson Go and his family in the Phillipines. Lovely boy with super character will certainly make waves wherever he goes. We wish him all the best and miss him very much.

Zafir already won his first BOB, but needs to mature more and will start serious show career in 2002.
