Boondocks Kennels - Michigan English Setter Breeders

Boondocks Kennels was started in 1968. We have had several breeds during the years and competed in various events with them. Obedience was an early endeavor and most dog training starts with that. As of this date I have trained over 2,000 dogs from flushing breeds, Beagles, cattle dogs, pointing breeds, Poodles and even a couple Jack Russell Terriers, and Pit Bulls (American Staffordshire terriers.) There have been at least a dozen breeds but I always seem to come back to the English setter. This breed and its genetics offers challenges and variations. These variations will provide the owner the type of dog that best suits their needs and life style. We breed a litter or so a year and mainly train “outside” dogs for hunting. I developed the Obedience program for United Kennel Club, the world’s second largest all-breed dog registry and coordinated their Hunting Retriever program and was editor of that publication for 10 years. If you have questions about buying a dog, its training or selection--give us a shout or send us an email. The English setter is a wonderful breed.

Breeding quality gun dogs for over 40 years.
