I have purchased two pups from Scott and Ben in the past year. Both pups have had exceptional dispositions along with good drive in field which is exactly what I was looking for. They have called to check on the progress of the dogs and requested I keep them informed. Easy to see they care about what they produce. If you spend some time explaining what you are looking for in a dog they can certainly help you with the bloodlines you should consider. They also run a clean kennel operation. Highly recommend visiting with them if looking for a red or English setter.

Scott & Ben,

The pup is doing great. He is by far the most social and loving dog I have ever had as he adopted my whole family. In the house he wants to be with you constantly, outside he is all about hunting. He loves to point and seems to have a lot of natural instinct to back. He seems to be very intelligent. He had one accident in the house the first night home and never has since. I tell him NO 1 time and he understands. I am very well pleased. Thanks.

Scott & Ben,
Jett has fit right in here. He has done well adjusting to the temperature, from the first quail hunt in 100 degree weather to this last weekends chukar hunt in the teens. His smooth gait has given him the ability to hunt for hours in the desert country east of here. At 9 months old, this past Saturday he covered 15 miles providing us with several points and hunting hard all the way back to the truck. He is a real pleasure to watch.

Scott,
Jake is 9 months old now and I am very pleased with him. He is very steady on point and backing. Retrieves good also. Jake has a great nose and he's all business. He has great stamina too. I have probably killed 50+ birds over him this season and several hunters have asked where I got him. I may want another pup soon.
Best Wishes for 2011. Jackie, Alabama

Our Setter is now 10 months old. She already has a ton of style, class, endurance, and runs an efficient running pattern. Her nose is great. She points solid, retrieves and can go for 4-5 hours without being fatigued or showing any loss of enthusiasm. She's so lethal already it almost feels like it should be illegal using her.

Scott,
Bandit is by far the most talented pup I have ever had! At 9 months, he is naturally backing Tessa. The backing is completely instinctive. His nose is better than any dog I have ever had or been around at that age. I though Tessa had a good nose when she was young, but at this point think Bandit will be better. I am very pleased.

Scott and Ben,
I just returned from California taking in the last two weeks of their quail season. Dutch and Juno continue to progress in their abilities and expand their repertoire of birds and habitat. Both dogs show wonderful stamina, great nose and often times breathtaking style. We should be well on our way for the 2011 trial season. Juno was named the Montana Dog of the year and was the 2010 Region 14 Shooting Derby Dog of the Year. Thanks to the both of you for your passion in breeding and providing such wonderful dogs to people across the country.

Hey Scott, I haven't been in touch for a while but I wanted to let you know how much we love Daisey. She is unbelievable as a house pet and everyone who meets her falls in love. I couldn't be happier. She has great drive, stamina, style around birds, and is already mostly broke. Last month we went to Maine on a grouse and woodcock hunt and had a blast. With only one dog we had to use her more than I would have liked but she was up to it. We averaged 10 mi/day by GPS for 4 days in tough cover and she was still digging birds out at sunset the last day. She just never stopped working hard. Thanks again and I'll be in touch as I'd like to get another pup started before too long.

Scott,
Our pups continues to progress – I put her on wild pheasants for the first time this past week. She bumped the first three contacts and after that nailed about 6 in a row including several small “coveys” of hens. While they hold better than many pheasants – I think that is pretty awesome for her first pheasant hunt.

Scott and Ben,
Our Jack & Klassy pup is doing great. At 5 mos she is progressing rapidly. She is holding point, retrieving to hand, and is a natural backer. That is about all the farther I take a young dog the first year. I like to put them on a lot of wild birds the first year before I break them all the way out. So, I will just be keeping her freshened up till season gets here. She also seems to take the heat very well. Thanks! Scot Wolf, IL
