Hello I’m Chris Orcutt I grew up in a farming community in upstate
New York and I have always had a dog as long
as I can remember. My very first dog was an English Setter
named Freckles. Over the years my wife Tami and I have had
several Setters. We currently live in Portland, CT
with our most recent cast of characters including a Gordon
Setter (Moses), Irish Setter (Noah), Field Style English Setter (Jack) and three
Irish Red and White Setters (Abe, Hogan and Kyla). We became
interested in IRWS, because despite being an old breed there was no split
between show style and field style dogs. We liked the idea
of an all around dog that has the ability to hunt as well as show in the breed
ring. In addition to that they are just fun dogs to have as
companions. We currently show our dogs in the breed ring as
well as participate in Hunt Tests. As I serve on the board of the IRWSA, I have
a keen interest in maintaining IRWS as an all around dog who will happily go
from the breed ring, to the field, to the couch all in the same day.
It is a privilege and an honor to serve a board member of the IRWSA.
