No!! Do not get 4 dogs!! I love 'em all, but 4 is just too many, particularly when bird populations are getting more limited. I never intended to have 4 dogs, but ended up keeping 2 out of my last litter +mom+ Grandma Betty. All 4 are good hunters.After my recent heart surgery, I could not take care of the dogs for a while, and they went to my friend Ernie, in California, Pa., who trains and field trials setters. He said mine were the niccest, best trained dogs he has boarded in a long time. I would love to be down to 2 dogs, but that will probably not happen for quite a while yet.
BTW Mills, nice looking Britt

I could go to two, but no more. It is just a joke. I do know people who have more than 4

He is about 7 months now. He has his first quail hunt coming up a week from today, so wish us luck.

At one time we had 5 dogs. I REALLY believe a hunter need two dogs. Hunt one, rest one. You wouldn't go to a shoot with only one gun would you? Much to the dismay of the Mrs Ike will be getting a girlfriend this summer.

 ) As I have one yappy (Mom's) dog, a washout (loves everyone) setter and then my retired setter deaf and I can't take a chance of losing him in the woods. So yes I am working on a new dog, hopefully a washout field trial dog (English Setter) that hunts too close for them but is just perfect for me  We shall see and if anyone has a line on a washout field trial setter let me know.
