Dalriach Scalan

We have 2 IRWS Dalriach Scalan (Bracken) who came to us from Margaret Sierakowski and Jerobean Morning Light (Banan) who came from Bill Windard.

We train and compete in a sport called Dryland Mushing in Ireland. We’ve also competed abroad in the UK and trained in Sweden on snow. We got involved in mushing back in 2008 when we were trying to control our Irish Setters desire to run. We started with 1 dog and now we have 5. We find the IRWS has a better working ability with higher endurance. Banan is a wheel dog in our team as he’s strong and doesn’t tire as easily as the reds do. The wheel dog is the hardest worker as they are the nearest to the sled or rig. These photographs are from a recent trip to Sweden.

O'Dobhailien Aengus For Mizen has arrived "back home" into the loving arms of Ann Miller (Mizen).

Aengus was bred by Bob and Evan Devlin of Duluth, Minnesota in the USA.

Aengus' sire is Lougherne Birch JH from Vincent Brennan in N.Ireland.

Aengus' dam is O'Dobhailien Logan Asthore. Logan is from American and Canadian CH Dalriach Alchemy JH (bred by Margaret Sierakowski) X Hartley's Bayly (bred by the Devlins). Bayly is from Lougherne Harvest (Vincent Brennan) X Sheebhin Grainne (Father Doherty). It is no wonder that Ann Miller said Aengus acts like he was born here.
