Nutrition and Diet
A balanced diet is essential for the growth and development of our Irish Setters. We provide:
High-Quality Dog Food
We feed our dogs premium dog food that meets all their nutritional needs, supporting their overall health and vitality.
Feeding Schedule
Puppies are fed multiple times a day to ensure they receive adequate nutrition for their growing bodies. As they mature, the feeding schedule is adjusted to meet their changing needs.
Dietary Supplements
When necessary, we include dietary supplements to promote joint health, coat condition, and overall well-being.
Vaccinations
To ensure our puppies start life healthy and strong, we adhere to a rigorous schedule of vaccinations and health checks:
Initial Vaccinations
Our puppies receive their first set of vaccinations at 6-8 weeks of age, protecting them against common canine diseases.
Routine Health Checks
Regular check-ups by our trusted veterinarian ensure that our puppies are growing and developing properly.
Preventative Care
In addition to vaccinations, we take preventative measures to protect against parasites, including regular deworming and flea/tick prevention.
Grooming Tips
Irish Setters have a beautiful, flowing coat that requires regular grooming to keep it in top condition:
Brushing
Brush your Irish Setter’s coat several times a week to prevent tangles and matting. A slicker brush and a comb are useful tools.
Bathing
Bathe your dog as needed, using a gentle dog shampoo. Be sure to rinse thoroughly to avoid skin irritation.
Nail Trimming
Regularly trim your dog’s nails to prevent overgrowth and discomfort. If you’re unsure how to do this, ask your vet or a professional groomer for guidance.
