Now that Spring has sprung this is the time of year where most of our members are getting ready The Royal Melbourne Show and at this year’s show we have a great opportunity to showing on the same day with our English and Irish cousins (hopefully the red and whites will joins us next year)

So along with The English Setter Association Of Victoria and The Irish Setter Club Of Victoria we would like to invite all our members to come and join us at lovely day of judging of all three setters and join us at lunchtime to share a bite to eat and get to know the clubs and their members.

This is last year’s Best of Breed winner Aust Ch. Drumdaroch Sky Of Dreams
owners: Dr L Beer & Mr M Norton

Hello all!

On Sunday, 21st August several people came to Diggers Rest to participate in the 2016 Annual Field Training Fun Day.

The day was a success (despite the rain!) and all the Gordon Setters, and owners, had a blast learning and trying out tracking the scent of quail and setting the birds.

Thank you to everyone who made the day a success!!

You will find in the menu the new page which has photos. You will also find them on our Facebook page here.

Marcia Hall, a Life Member of the Gordon Setter Club of Victoria, has passed away.

Marcia would be known to most members who have attended our shows, as she was our ticket writer for more years than I can remember. 2015 was the first time in memory that she was not there, because she was ill. Marcia was a fixture at our shows, wrapped in her rug against the cold, happy to discuss Gordons past & present. She will be sadly missed.

We send our deepest sympathy to her family.

Hello everyone, we have a message from Gordon Strachan regarding the cancellation of the Pointer & Setter Field Trials.

“I wish to advise that the Gordon Setter Club of Vic Inc Pointer & Setter field trials are cancelled due to lack of birds. I would like to thank all who supported the trials with their entries, we would have had a field each day.”
