Gunny (formerly Nikon) from the Cameras Litter on the hunt

Well this Paint River pup has really had a very busy puppyhood! Exposure to quail down south and pheasants and chukars on preserves in Connecticut. He’s pointing and honoring beautifully. Here’s Gunny (Nikon) hunting with his big brother last weekend.

Well it was a very busy afternoon here with our little pups from Paint River Llewellins!!! Time to get the Kleenex out!! Weep—weep! All my little kids have flown the coop!! They all have such wonderful homes and I’m so thankful for connecting with all of these families. Here are photos of today’s departures.

The 4 Gizmos and Olympus with this mornings kitchen romp

It will be a quiet Monday……. all four remaining Gizmos leave this weekend and Olympus has several strong interests that we hope we will find a great match!! These Llewellin Setter puppies are just the best little munchkins ever!!!

The Gizmos Litter ….and a Camera— Olympus having a Llew pup morning

Well this morning Paint River’s Olympus from the Cameras Litter was put back into the pack. Given it’s five Gizmos versus one Camera everyone seems to be balancing out ok given the three week age difference. What an appropriate name for the one pup to deal with five little rug rats!!— Olympus.

Olympus from The Cameras Litter is available!! Last Llewellin Setter puppy available until winter of 2014!!!!!

Good Morning everyone!!!

Olympus from the Cameras Litter was returned to us after a few days with his new loving home…. his new parents adored him so much but unfortunately his new mom was very allergic and after a strong effort they decided it was best to return him so he could find a new home early in life. I have posted a few current photos of him and a two minute video of him playing with his mother. Please email me if you are seriously interested.

The Cameras Litter update on Gunner (Nikon)

Well here’s my boy that awesome bird hunting family pried from my vice gripped hands…… he’s doing terrific and I couldn’t be happier with the home he is placed with. He’s posed in one of the photos pointing a wing with his big brother Jaxson (a Lynnhill Llewellin) in the backyard.

Paint River’s Nikon departs with his new family

Wow!!! This was sooooooooo— hard for me!! This pup really was everything I want in a pup!!! He has a super home and will be hunting 90 -1 00 days a year all over the country. What more could I ever ask for?! Congratulations to The Damore Family. I look forward to many years of hunting with you guys!! Welcome to The Paint River Family.

Nikon Departure

Paint River’s Nikon has a new family with The Damores of Long Island, NY!! Congrats!!

Well I have been telling myself since the day this dog was born that I was keeping him because I have just felt that he represents everything that I look for and instinctively believe in my heart and my gut that greatness can be. I have been also telling myself that I do not need to keep a son of Duncan since my super star is so young himself— so if a hunting home that I felt would give him the world and a hunting life exceeding the life I could give him— I’d let him go as long as he may be able to make a contribution to the breed, if and when he has proven himself down the road. With happy glassy eyes I can say that this special kind of home has found Nikon and me. Nikon will be hunting in many states all around the country every year for many months out of the year and still reside within an easy drive of his birth place. Oh boy!!! I’m going to cry like a baby when this dog leaves tomorrow!! But I couldn’t be more happy for my little man!! Congrats to The Damore Family of Brightwaters, Long Island, NY. —And welcome to the Paint River Family!!
