It’s been a very fun summer with working young setters from this past breeding season despite the heat and humidity that the past couple months has brought. Here are a few photos of three of the dogs that we have had an opportunity to work in the fields: Zulu, from the critters litter, Jack and Sierra from the flowers litter.
This fantastic little pup from our Flowers Litter goes home tomorrow back to Quebec, Canada. She is just 4.5 months old and doing terrific! We gave her a great start on birds with her seeing over 100 pigeons in the past month, got her comfortable with a bell and gps collar, in addition to getting all her basic commands introduced and well on their way. Best of luck to Sierra and her owner in their first season in the grouse woods together.
Omiimii will be bred Jan/Feb pups should be born Mar/Apr. Pups ready May/June. Great grouse dog and has produced some fine bird dogs between her first two litters.
Here is two-month-old Lacey Scarlet in our evening routine with the setters on the bed.
This young puppy is out of one of our most recent litters, the Flowers litter , Pixel by Duncan. Her litter name was Buttercup. She is staying with us for several weeks why her owners are out of the country. Doing some foundational bird work during her stay here at PRL. This is a typical Pixel by Duncan puppy developing wonderfully by four months of age. This is Sierra’s fourth time now in the training field with pigeons.
The sisters are now six months old today and I couldn’t be more pleased with the progress. So happy to see that all the young dogs look very promising for making the cut in the program. Going to be an exciting hunting season coming up!
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.
My adorable little Spark Plug has moved south to quail country….. this was a very hard pup to let go of….. reminds me so much of her mom— Widget. Super little girl!! We drove down to New York City to meet her lovely new mom, Lauren at LGA airport so Spark Plug could fly to Texas in the cabin with her mom. Here is a photos of Spark Plug— one with her new momma and another of her checking out the view from the truck on the way down to the big city.
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!!!
Great little puppy!! I look forward to many wonderful updates on this little girl!!
Here are all my little Gizmos together before any departures from the pack. I love these little guys!! I wish them all happy, healthy wonderful adventures in their futures!!
Here’s some New Year’s cheer to get the first day of 2014 going for ya!!! These Llewellin Setter puppies sure are ready to start their next journey to their new homes!!! The Gizmos Litter and Olympus from the Cameras litter.
These Llewellin Setter puppies are certainly ready to embark on their new journeys!!! They are full of beans!!! Big brother Olympus is rearing to go as well. Enjoy this mornings video folks.
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.
Wow!! Time flies!! It will be sad to see them go…. this litter of Llewellin Setter puppies has been amazing— but I’m sure looking forward to catching up on my sleep in January after two litters back to back!! Here are some videos from this morning to get you all your puppy fix for the day.
Here are my little pup-bups— soon to yours….. they are all zonked out after some hard core play time.
