Special Nutritional Needs For The Irish Setter
By: Jane R. Bicks, D.V.M.


The Irish Setter, a redheaded beauty is a handful
if you're not used to an energetic clown.


Bloat is a real consideration because they tend
to eat too fast and refuse to rest after eating.

Besides the usual bloat precautions, wash two or
three large rocks and put them into the food dish
along with the food. Eating around the rocks can
slow down any dog, even an Irish Setter.

Clams Homeopathic Remedy tablets, valerian, and
free feeding should be considered to quell some of
their excitement.


Exercise is a must, but no jumping before your setter
turns 2 years old.


Alfalfa added to the high quality diet he needs for
that beautiful red coat will ensure his antioxidant
intake.


When he becomes too rambunctious, a natural calmer
such as valerian or honey will help.
