He’s out of Springset Gordon Setters just north of Medford Oregon. They have been breeding field Gordon’s since the 60’s. should be on the smaller side, 60# and a little shorter hair than the show Gordons. He will be an 90% upland dog, but I’m gonna try to work him into waterfowl and see how it goes.
I've only had labs before this. When I bought Boomer, the 8 year old lab I have now, I went back and forth on a few breeds to try next but just couldn't make the switch. The wife grew up with Goldens but I didn't want the hassle of pulling burrs out of golden fur after every hunt. Figured a setter was a pretty good compromise.
Great looking pup you got there.
They are great dogs but you better have time to train and hunt them. They are not the sit around and lounge type dog. I would put them up there with the ferrari of dogs. They will go all day and be ready for more.
