WELCOME TO OUR SITE!
My very first dog was Rajka z Slavkovských luk - an Irish Setter female in 1987. She gave me my first real contact with the hunting world. I read all the books on pointers training available at that time and I threw myself into her training. One of the most experienced cynologists in his time - Mr. Josef Věntus - helped me solve my problems and I am still grateful to him for that. Although neither I nor anyone in my family was a hunter, I managed to pass the "Autumn pointers exam" in I. prize with Rajka in 1990 at the age of less than 16. On Rajka I also bred my first litter of my original kennel "ze Štítinského polesí" and it was her who led me to my hunting exams and my first hunting license.
Then I branched out to a slightly different type of dog, I got a Caucasian - Dolly z Oblasti klidu, who has been a great companion for me throughout the 10 years of her life.
In 2003, my first gordon came - Barbara Bohemia Setter, with whom I returned to hunter training, and who was the founder of the Silesia Setter kennel.
From her second litter we kept Bety, who has been successful in show and work and has been the best friend. We wanted to continue breeding with her, but unfortunately nature wanted otherwise and we never managed to breed her, so instead of her puppy we got Freya z Holubické stráně.
Freya with my daughter, her owner, succeeded at several working trials and shows, became a breeding bitch and we bred her first litter, from which I kept Ceridwen, who, hopefully, will be the continuation of our kennel.
