Beauregard of Rebel Ridge - My Setter Pup
5 Attachment(s)
Here are some photos of Beau, my ten month old setter pup. He is a grandson of Shadow Oak Bo, and this guy is built for speed! Beautiful tri-color fella. He is a big boy, taller than most of the setters that I've been around. Goes about 60 pounds.
He has taken to training very well. He is totally gun-broke, holds points steady to wing and shot, and retrieves OK for a young dog. He is whistle-broke, and we've started on Whoa-breaking. My wife is happy that he is doing very well at heel. Coming from a field dog like Shadow Oak Bo, he's a big runner and he has a ton of energy, so we get a big run most every morning on the farm, and then a big play time in the evening at our local dog park. Rebel Ridge is a local guy's private kennel here in Kentucky, and I have been working Beau out quite a bit at Gasper River Kennels (Setters and GSP's), also here in south central Kentucky. I love this guy, and can't wait for this fall's grouse season. Dave |
What a handsome pup he is! Is there some Llewellin blood in there?

Fine looking Setter pup Dave!!

Yes, Dean, I believe there is some Llewellin blood in his gene pool..... :)

Very nice Dave. We're gonna have to meet up at Elk Creek again and get some practice in before bird season.
|
Hope we'll see him in Mich this fall
|
Chances are good, John! Very, very good! In fact, I may bring him along on the spring trout trip in May!

Great looking setter Dave. I maybe getting my female setter this summer too.

Beau is my first setter, having been a lifelong Lab guy. Labs are like the Swiss Army knife of dogs and I've used mine for ducks, upland birds, and grouse, but I am sure enjoying have my first true English Setter bird dog.
Good luck to you, Eric! Dave |
Proud dog-dad and understandably so. Looking forward to meeting him in May or this fall. Lucky for us there are enough couches at the Oxbow for the dogs - hopefully they'll be willing to share with us.
Cheers, Jay |
