I am so pleased to say that I purchased my english setter pup from Christy Lee's Setters! My experience was outstanding from the very beginning to the end of our transaction, and we continue to stay in touch. At first sight of Ginger and Pilot, I knew that Christy cared about her english setters! They are beautiful dogs, with a superb temperaments, not to mention their pedigrees! I showed up unexpectedly to pick up Champ, and Christy came home from work to deliver him to me. Thanks Christy!

Christy, I just wanted let you know, that not only do we feel super lucky to have such an attractive young addition to the family (and I am personally wowed by all the compliments we continually get (as you've probably noticed through FB), but Phin simply has the sweetest personality. In a couple short months he has already become an integral member of our family. I continually smile as I watch my boys (and wife) have so much fun with him. His training is also going really well. He's a smart guy. His manners around the house are great, he does great on walks, with people and dogs each of all ages, and loves loves loves our regular runs and walks around our local trails and lakes.
As you know, Phin will not be raised as a hunting dog, but as a family dog and running companion. We are surrounded by wooded running trails and Phin already absolutely loves those surroundings. At 4 months, he's too young to go too far or often, but I can share that just the other day, he and I ran a comfortable 4 miles with him only dragging a short leash. He spent the entire run 10-30 feet in front of me, continually checking where I was. At the end, he clearly wanted to go out again!
You might have noticed, but I've kept him in a green collar, similar to the ribbon you put on him as a puppy. I'll always think of him as Mr. Green.

I purchased Conner from Christy in October of this year. He is an English Setter, now 4 months old. Conner is our third English Setter and I can't say enough great things about this breed. They are sweet, goofy, loyal and extremely loving dogs. Conner was our first purchase from Christy Lee's English Setters. She was wonderful throughout the entire process. She had pictures and videos posted, so I have a photographic record of Conner from day 1. She telephoned me often, both prior to and after picking Conner up, letting me know what was going on with him and then checking up on him. One thing that I think is wonderful about Christy's setters is that they are raised in her home, not a kennel. They are totally ready to be perfect house pets when they come home. I'm not sure when I'll be ready to get another setter, having 2 in the house right now is enough for me, but if/when I do decide to get that next English Setter, you can be sure that I'll get get him from Christy.

Just recently our family was lucky enough to take one of Christy Lee's Setters into our home. Our new pup, Ranger, is a strong, healthy, and an amazingly personable puppy. We got him around the age twelve weeks old and we couldn't be more blessed. Christy's pups are the perfect fit for family life in addition to the sport of hunting. Thanks to Christy, and the champion bloodlines of the her breeding dogs Pilot and Ginger, upon arrival to our home Ranger was already extremely obedient. Within a short amount of time he was already pointing at the birds in the backyard. We are so pleased with him and can't say enough good things about Christy Lee's Setters. If you are looking for a great setter to add to the family she's who you want to turn to for answers! Highly recommend her! She is great!

I recently (2 months ago) had the pleasure of "adopting" an 11 month old English Setter, Maggie, from Christy Lee's Setters. Maggie was out of Christy's litter last year and unfortunately, due to a broken home, was returned to Christy in hopes of finding her a good home. Christy was incredibly helpful and was also very peculiar about who would get the opportunity to take this beautiful dog home. I knew from the way Christy interviewed me over the period of almost a week, that she is first and foremost concerned about her dogs and giving them the best possible chance for a perfect family situation. When I went to pick up Maggie, I had the chance to see the Dam (Ginger) and I was blown away at her beauty and disposition. Christy is very particular with her breeding and also the placement of her puppies and just does an outstanding job. I drove 12 hours round trip to get my puppy from Christy and I can tell you it was a terrific experience! If you are looking for an impeccable English Setter from a top quality breeder, I would highly recommend Christy Lee's Setters!

Christy has kept me up to date on Ginger's progress with pictures and emails. Pups soon to arrive. No puppy mill here! Ginger and Pilot are well cared for, no doubt the pups will be healthy too. I look forward to trying to pick out just one! Thanks again.

I am set to get a setter from Christy in this next set of pups, and am beyond excited. She has been extremely helpful and supportive in thinking through this process and deciding on getting a pup from this litter. I especially appreciate the obvious care she takes of the dogs and pups leaving no doubt of their care. I will be receiving the best of a family/hunting dog. Loved bringing my boys(yrs 5 & 3) to see the dam (ginger) and sire (pilot) and was pleased to see their interaction. Highly possible I will use her training services after acquiring pup...Again, I do not have pup yet, but will go ahead and say you will be pleased.

I had the opportunity to hunt over two of Christy's great setters today. What a display of style and grace. Both did what in my opinion a gread bird dog should do. She said because of her work load, they had not been hunted in a while, but they surely had not forgotten what a bird was, nor what their job was. Thanks Christy for a great day!

Christy Lee setters are a great place to find the perfect family member and mighty bird hunter for the woodsmen. My sister had own an English setter many years ago. We decided this was the year to look for a pup after some years had past since having one. Once we found Christy Lee setters and read her Ginger was ready to give birth to a litter in July, we became serious about having a setter in the house again. We knew we wanted a male and we thought were set on a tri if possible. As prior testimonial state Christy was diligent in putting out pictures and video clips of the new borns. Once we saw Red, who is now named Riley Red Stingray; it was love at first sight. Riley began pointing his first bird at 7 weeks old. He has natural instincts and is a fine breed.
Christy is a professional breeder and expects nothing less from potential interested owners of Gingers pups. Riley is a mighty hunter, but above all he is a big part of our family. His grandmother thinks he is cute as a button and grand dad thinks so too, but never says that to Riley. LOL I would recommend Christy Lee setters for those looking for a great hunting dog and a new addition to the family. All English Setters are so loving and would be great to al loving family. We would consider getting another brother or sister for Riley from future litters from Christy Lee.

Christy was great at keeping me up to date about my puppy breeze before I got her. She would put pictures and videos up of them which i thought was cool and would watch them every day to see how my Breeze was doing. Her setters have great temperament and hunting instincts. I would recommend Christy Lee's Setters to anyone looking for an exceptional bird dog, and/or a new fun, sweet, loving family member. Plus these are the most beautiful breed of dogs on the planet.
