Jo is pregnant!! More Setters on the way!!

[Mike Koneski]

Well, our Natty Jo is definitely pregnant!! We bred her again with Royal Sterling's Schuyler. After the litter she had in 2020, we had requests for pups from the same breeding!! She should whelp around August 18. If anyone is interested in beautiful English Setters that are great in the home and monsters in the field, let us know.

[Andrew Sacco]

Congrats Mike

[Mike Koneski]

Jo had 10 pups. All happy, healthy and eating like there’s no tomorrow!!

[Garry L Gordon]

Can’t help but smile and think to the future.

[Andrew Sacco]

Just saw this Mike, awesome! She was ready to pop Sunday when we were there. Sight of me must have scared them babies out.

[Mike Koneski]

A passel of puppies!

[Gerald McPherson]

I cannot remember, how many tits does she have?

[Mike Koneski]

I cannot remember, how many tits does she have?

10 for sure. All ten can feed at the same time.

[Mike Koneski]

4 of the 10 had quite a bit of dark color. We weighed them Tuesday evening and another one is developing some black spots on it's one hind foot. Possibility of 4-5 tri-colors, but we won't hold our breath. All are growing and healthy. They are very mobile, some are really quick little buggers too. A couple definitely have a set of pipes!!

[Mike Koneski]

Half of the pups opened their eyes today and I’d say half are ready to do more walking than just 5 steps and a flop. At least one is a tri-color. Onward and upward!

What!? No pictures?!:shock:

[Mike Koneski]

New pics Wednesday. They’ll be 2 weeks old.

[Mike Koneski]

Pup pics! Looks like two tri-colors for sure so far.

[Garry L Gordon]

OMG! How can you think of getting rid of any of them!?!? :eek::shock::eek::shock:

It is very easy when you already have 5 dogs!

[John Dallas]

Anyone who has had to clean up after them for 7 weeks is happy to see a few of them go away

SOOOOO TRUE!!! :shock:

BUT, BUT…….They are so cute!

[Mike Koneski]

How many do you want? Asking for a friend.

Please don’t tell me the friend is my wife.:eek: We have a pup on the way.

Deleted, repeated answer

[Mike Koneski]

Pups are thriving! 3 weeks old today. First deworming was last night. I'll post pics next week at the 1 month mark. As of now, 5 are spoken for.

[Mike Koneski]

Only 4 pups are available. :) We auctioned a "draft pick" off at our Pheasants Forever banquet on Saturday night. We donated ALL the money to the chapter and the pup went for $1750!! WOOT-WOOT!! :clap:

[Mike Koneski]

Three pics of puppy # 1. “Draft pick #6” will be choosing one of these pups. Four will remain available.

THIS PUPPY IS STILL AVAILABLE. The family decided they wanted a smaller Setter for traveling.

[Gary Hoogewind]

How much for a male pup when there ready?

[Mike Koneski]

$1500. A $200 non-refundable deposit assures your "draft pick". There are only male pups available. Draft pick #6 will be chosen tomorrow morning (they chose pup #1). The pups all will go to their new homes with vet health certification, genetic health money back guarantee, puppy shots (if you want them), dewormed and the litter will be registered. The pups should be ready to go home around October 20. Thanks for asking.

[Joe Dreisch]

They are gorgeous !!!!!! I am trying to figure out how my decrepit 73 year old frame would keep up with one (AH! Those were the days...!!) Is their registration FDSB or AKC? I am weak in the knees just looking at these pictures and have a favorite already!!!

[Garry L Gordon]

OK, at least one of them is winking at me!:shock: What wonderful faces! I should not have shown those photos to my wife. We have a puppy coming at the end of the month, and were it not for that, we'd be sorely tempted (and that from a confirmed and lifelong Gordon setter guy).

Joe, you'd better get one. A puppy will make a 73 year old turn into an 18 year old...at least in your heart and mind.

[Joe Dreisch]

Garry, I still THINK that I'm 18 years. The main difference is now, everything hurts!!! Those pups are taking me back 40 years, though.....

[Mike Koneski]

The litter will be registered with FDSB.

[Mike Koneski]

Week 4 photos. Pups are really growing. Here’s pup 1

[Mike Koneski]

All these pups are male and orange.

[Garry L Gordon]

It would be very hard to choose based on looks. Those are (really!) fine looking setter pups.

Garry, all four have great personalities too. Only difference so far is a few ounces of size and coloration.

[Joe Dreisch]

The third picture of #2 touches my soul!!!

You need that pup, Joe.

[Mike Koneski]

Yes Joe, you NEED that pup!!

[Mike Koneski]

The pups are 7 weeks old tomorrow. All growing like weeds. Eating healthy, playing a lot and sleeping well. AND, don't forget 10 puppies pooping. We should add that to The Twelve Days of Christmas!! Now that y'all are singing that in your head...:rotf: They will be dewormed again this week and weighed. They have their vet visit and shots on 10/18. We have two nibbles on the remaining four. If you are interested now is the time to act. The remaining four are in the lodge with us during business hours and that usually sells pups.

Keavin, come on, you know you want to!!! :clap:

[Mike Koneski]

That would make a great story for the Parker Pages! If someone buys a pup, does the training and has a great hunt to share. :smiley7:

[Mike Koneski]

At 7 weeks, pup #4….

[Mike Koneski]

At 7 weeks, pup #3….

[Garry L Gordon]

Yikes! This is like puppy porn.:rotf::rotf::rotf:

At 7 weeks, pup #2….

[Mike Koneski]

At 7 weeks, pup #1….

[Mike Koneski]

ONLY TWO PUPS REMAIN!! They turned 9 weeks old on Wednesday, 10/26. All have their shots and have been dewormed, toe nails clipped and had their vet check ups. We do have one gent interested in a pup and he needs to decide which one he will want. First deposit gets the pick of the two pups.

First photo is pup #2, second photo is pup #4.

[Joe Dreisch]

Mike, the pup shown at 9 weeks as #2 is the same pup as 7 weeks #3. Check the dots between the eyes...

I know that, we are numbering them from our list. Ignore past numbers.

[Mike Koneski]

Here are photos of the two remaining pups. They will be 10 weeks old on Wednesday!! Top two photos are Puppy “A”, bottom two are Puppy “B”.

Wish were closer by. Good looking setters

If you start driving now you'll get here by 2:00 AM. :shock::rotf:

[Mike Koneski]

One pup remains. 10 weeks old and ready to go home.

[Mike Koneski]

SPF!!

[Garry L Gordon]

I predict wonderful days for those pups’ new people.

[Jay Oliver]

My son and I got to meet Mike and Susan yesterday and pick up the last puppy, which my son named “Chase”. Looking forward to watching these two become best friends. They have many fun days ahead together!

[Jim DiSpagno]

Congratulations Jay. They will definitely have some great adventures together.

[Mike Koneski]

I can see Jonathan hunting over Chase with his 20g Parker. All will be right in the universe!!

Would that be the 20ga. Lifter? You do have an imagination!

[Mike Koneski]

No sir, top lever. Young man is starting out in style. BTW, I don't consider it imagination. I see it as being a visionary. :whistle:

[Jay Oliver]

I had mentioned to Mike, that I bought my son a 20 gauge Trojan made in 1913, excactly 100 years older than him a few years ago. It was actually the first Trojan I shot and it is a nice Parker. Here is the thread from when I got it: https://parkerguns.org/forums/showthread.php?t=23790

So yes my son Johnathan has a Parker to use with his new dog Chase. I will be the one carrying the 20 gauge lifter on our hunts :)

I can't express how wonderful it has been with the puppy the last few days. My daughters are having fun too. Plus my Golden Retriever/Irish Setter mix got used to everything fairly quickly. I feel like it was meant to be...
