IWSC at the native breeds heritage week event Sunday 26th of August

The theme for Heritage Week this year is “Story-telling” and we will be holding another Native Breeds Event this year at the Battle of the Boyne site just North of Drogheda.  The title of the event is “The Myths and Legends of the Nine Native Breeds”

The challenge here is to inspire people about our wonderful breed!!

Each breed will be able to bring a tent or gazebo and promote their breed with displays, merchandise and information.  As part of the day each breed will be encouraged to tell stories – we hope to get the public to engage with the IWSC and to get a real feel of how wonderful they are.

We have had a fantastic meeting at the Boyne and all the grounds were looking brilliant. This year we will be in prime position at the front of the house on the main lawn.  This will be a superb location for our event.

Looking forward to seeing everyone there on Sunday 26th of August.

Walk, demonstration & tryout – Dec 03rd Co. Cavan

The O’Regan family have made a kind invitation for IWS owners and guests, to go to their home on Sunday 3rd December. The meeting is to start at noon, with a walk round the fields and a swim in the lough. There will then be a demonstration by local retriever, spaniel and HPR owners. the demonstration will be followed by a chance for your dogs to”give it a go’. As we all know our dogs will do their best to embarrass us (well mine will), but at least help and advice will be on hand.
Whilst IWS run as retrievers, they have been described in an article in a shooting magazine as “the first all round gundogs” This is our chance to put that theory to the test!

The address is,
Drumard,
Flynns Pass
Killykeen
Cavan
Eircode H12DP94.

Please let us know if you intend to come, we want to make sure there are enough mugs for everyone to get a cup of tea.
