Jon, always good to listen to the Universe! I have no doubt you'll be glad you did. What's not to love about the promise of a puppy, and two(!) adds exponential pleasure to life. Enjoy.

Nothing better than an English setter pup to hold in your arms

There is nothing which generates more optimism than a new gun dog puppy (or 2!)

My word, how life changes doesn't it? Good for you! I always have had more than one dog to "ease the pain" and it doesn't quite erase it. But I'm glad you went all in with your chips. I am always reminded of what Gene Hill wrote, "God made dogs lives short so we could enjoy more of them in our lives." Good luck, you'll be busy : )

Thought I'd share these. My brother, Sheepherder, holding 8 wk old Annie Oakley at Game Creek, 5 1/2 years ago. And holding her 6 wk old daughter, Aurelia Skye, 5 1/2 weeks ago.

Today the pups are 12 weeks old. I received this pic from the proud owner of the other female in the litter. She went to New Brunswick, Canada. They were out today doing some training and little Winnie pointed her first quail. Nice style for 12 weeks!

Gorgeous style and a good looking girl. And I love her name. My family has always given our gun dogs a dignified gun name. We’ve have had and have a Colt, Remmy, Parker, Ruger, Elsie, and a Winny.
She’s got a lot of promise, and you can’t deny, a lot of style!

Thanks. This entire litter shows that drive and promise. We intend to repeat this breeding in a year or so.
