Twombly Setters - Vermont English Setter Breeders

Earl Twombly started breeding English Setters in 1925 in Waterbury, VT. His most notable dogs were CH"joe silver" in 1930 "Duke of Decoverly" in the 40s, "Cider", Corey Ford's beloved setter in the 50s, and "Tober", Cider's son in the 60s along with earls own CH "chief".All bred and developed through Earls methods. Earl's legacy continues today through his daughter, Becky, and grandson, Legh. We are cultivating the Twombly lines, which originated from early field and bench bloodlines in the '20s; Earl Twombly worked to have good looking, strong-going field dogs, and that's what these dogs are.the current catch phrase is "dual" beautiful yet still full of bird sense. Many current"dual" breeders have built their kennels including Twombly dogs,all pedigrees include Twombly such as Pine Coble, Setter Hills, Alderwood, Oldfield, Dark Hollow Setters, and October Setters. The bloodlines of both Burdock and Olga go through some of the above to Twombly in more distant generations. Legh and Jennifer Higgins travel south in November to dog train in north Florida and guide hunters on Cripple Creek Plantation in Georgia with their 5 adult English Setters. They have 7 beautiful English Setter puppies, born 2/27! and are back in Vermont. Find us on facebook at Twombly Setters.
