Elkhorn Gun Dogs - Missouri American Brittany, Irish Setter Breeders

About Elkhorn Gun Dogs

Our mission is to provide quality gun dogs to upland hunters that will enhance the purist experience of the sport. In doing so, we will deal with integrity and honesty, focusing on your satisfaction as a priority.

This is a Red Setter, not a traditional Irish Setter. The Red Setter of today is often called a new breed, but this is not true. This breed represents the true Irish Setter from it's origination in Ireland over 50 years ago when it was among one of the most prominent pointing dogs. This breed is also recognized by the AKC.

The appearance of the Red Setter is not that of the traditional Irish Setter show dog. The Red Setter does not have long flowing hair associated with the breed. Their hair only flows and feathers on their legs and tails, making them much easier to maintain. This obviously is due to the fact that they were originally bred to be a hunting dog. The coat is very soft and silky. The Red Setter also is not as large; males top out at 50 lbs. and the females usually weigh between 35 lbs. and 40 lbs. They normally have some white on their face and stomach too. They have very friendly dispositions and love their family, which makes them a great companion too.

I have bought a Red Setter puppy from Elkhorn Gun dogs from the litter born 10/07. I have been working him in the filed for a while. Currently it is just getting him accustomed to everything. We have been working some birds. He is doing well. Retrieves very well. He circles nicely. Ranges out to about 150 yards. Typically stays within 50 yards of me. He hunts for me and not himself! I have had problems with previous dogs (mostly English Setters). Listens to commands well and learns quickly. Great house dog. Plays with the cats, loves kids and other dogs.
