Phoenix Mountain Kennel - North Carolina Llewellin Setter Breeders

In August 2017, I purchased a female puppy (Annie) from Kevin. She is now 10 months old. Annie is the best dog! I quickly fell in love with her. She was easy to train. Come, heel and hold were simple. No joke! Annie was heeling after one walk of training. As a little pup she was finding chukkar and pheasants. Additionally, she has an incredible temperament. My children love her and I can tell my husband thinks I’m beyond lucky to have a dog so easy to train. Treat a setter like you care and they are so loyal of a breed. You can’t go wrong getting a setter from Kevin, he is both reliable and knowledgeable. This Fourth of July I took Annie to the city’s fireworks display. Annie never flinched. She’s a natural gun dog. I can’t wait for pheasant season!!!

We purchased a female Llewellin setter pup from Kevin in July 2015. Our puppy was too young to come home with us so for three or four weeks Kevin kept us up to date on her development through pictures and text messages. Our puppy is everything Kevin described her to be and she grows more beautiful everyday! She is a sweet,intelligent companion and an incredibly instinctive bird dog too!
We are thoroughly pleased with our pup and really enjoyed interaction with Kevin. We are enjoying our Reese pup so much we are considering buying another pup from him in the near future.

On July 12, 2015 we emergently had to put down our 4 year old beloved Llewellin hunting dog. The dog was not only a great hunting dog and companion but a true member of our family.

We began looking for another Llewellin a few days later and found Phoenix Mountain Kennel through the Gun Dog Breeders website. Although we reached out to many breeders from this and other websites, it was the relationship we immediately built with Kevin Blevins that helped us grieve for our lost boy and assured us we would be able to provide a great home to one of his pups. His pups were too young to travel when we first reserved Charlie. So Kevin provided us with daily pictures and updates on the progress and development of our pup. Kevin truly loves and puts great care into his dogs. He always had great enthusiasm when discussing his dogs and answering any questions we had.

As we leave in Nevada the pup had to be shipped to us from North Carolina. He helped us to make the necessary arrangements to insure our precious cargo arrived safely. Once the dog left him he stayed in touch to insure we received the pup and were happy. Not only were we happy we were overjoyed. The pup was everything he promised and so much more. He is beautiful, smart, playful, sweet, gentle, active, curious, and a joy. The pup immediately bonded with the family and hasn't cried once. He even sleeps through the night (at 4 years our old one still got up at least 1 time a night).

Thank you Kevin for helping us through a difficult time. I strongly encourage your kennel to anyone looking for a great hunting dog and family member.
