  • The English Setter Association of America
    The English Setter Association of America Judges’ Education Presentation The first dog registered with the AKC was an English Setter named ADONNIS Champion Rock Falls Colonel Retired from the show ring in 1955 and was the first dog in the history of the AKC to have won 100 Best in Shows. Did You Know? The first AKC-licensed pointing-breeds field trial was conducted by the English Setter Club of America in 1924 in Medford, NJ. Original Purpose & History of the English Setter The English Setter is one of the oldest breeds of gun dog with a history dating back to the 14th century. It was thought to be developed between crosses of Spanish Pointer, Water Spaniel and the Springer Spaniel. Its purpose was to point, flush and retrieve upland game birds. The modern English Setter owes its appearance to Mr. EDWARD LAVERACK, who developed his own strain of the breed by careful inbreeding during the 19th century. Another Englishman, Mr. R. PURCELL LLEWELLIN began a second strain based upon Laverack’s line that developed into the working setter. Today you will hear the term Llewellin Setter. This is not a separate breed, just a different type, more often referred to as the Field Setter. This strain is more often used in field trials. ▪Although the Llewellin English Setter is still the predominate type seen in the field today, Laverack English Setters are making their mark. ▪The first Dual Champion finished in 1985. ▪There are 13 Dual Champions to date. ▪Numerous show English Setters have earned hunting titles. ▪You will see whiskers left on.

  • Sporting Group Study Guide Naturally Active and Alert, Sporting Dogs Make Likeable, Well-Rounded Companions
    Sporting Group Study Guide Naturally active and alert, Sporting dogs make likeable, well-rounded companions. Remarkable for their instincts in water and woods, many of these breeds actively continue to participate in hunting and other field activities. Potential owners of Sporting dogs need to realize that most require regular, invigorating exercise. The breeds of the AKC Sporting Group were all developed to assist hunters of feathered game. These “sporting dogs” (also referred to as gundogs or bird dogs) are subdivided by function—that is, how they hunt. They are spaniels, pointers, setters, retrievers, and the European utility breeds. Of these, spaniels are generally considered the oldest. Early authorities divided the spaniels not by breed but by type: either water spaniels or land spaniels. The land spaniels came to be subdivided by size. The larger types were the “springing spaniel” and the “field spaniel,” and the smaller, which specialized on flushing woodcock, was known as a “cocking spaniel.” ~~How many breeds are in this group? 31~~ 1. American Water Spaniel a. Country of origin: USA (lake country of the upper Midwest) b. Original purpose: retrieve from skiff or canoes and work ground c. Other Names: N/A d. Very Brief History: European immigrants who settled near the great lakes depended on the region’s plentiful waterfowl for sustenance. The Irish Water Spaniel, the Curly-Coated Retriever, and the now extinct English Water Spaniel have been mentioned in histories as possible component breeds. e. Coat color/type: solid liver, brown or dark chocolate. A little white on toes and chest is permissible.

  • Dogs of Scotland
    DOGSDOGS OF OF SCOTLAND There are 13 breeds of dogs which have their origins in or along the borders of Scotland or among the islands near its shores. All the dogs were developed with a specific job to do. The work included 1) gathering and driving a flock or herd of farm animals, 2) hunting and retrieving game, or 3) protecting livestock or crops from predators. In addition to their original purposes, these dogs are wonderful companions and are very popular in the United States and Scotland as elsewhere in the world. The breeds are the Bearded Collie, Border Collie, Border Terrier, Cairn Terrier, Collie (rough and smooth varieties), Dandie Dinmont Terrier, Golden Retriever, Gordon Setter, Scottish Deerhound, Scottish Terrier, Shetland Sheepdog, Skye Terrier, and West Highland White Terrier. Herding Dogs Herding Dogs Herding Dogs, traditionally are used in Scotland to gather, drive, and protect domestic farm animals. Collie Rough (left below) and Smooth Border Collie (2 colors) Bearded Collie Shetland Sheepdog The Bearded Collie is possibly Scotland’s oldest breed of dog and is a gentle, happy dog devoted to its family. A Beardie will have a long, shaggy coat that may be black, gray, brown, or fawn with or without areas of white. With the fur on its head, one might think it would have trouble seeing. However, when the Beardie moves the fur blows backward allowing the dog to see very well. The Border Collie originated in the border country between Scotland and England. You can see a demonstration today at the Virginia Scottish Games of how a BC works with its shepherd to contain and move sheep.

  • Hunting Dogs There Are Great Gun Dogs, Then There Are Those Whose Names Will Forever Be Remembered for Their Historically Significant Achievements
    2/22/19, 1010 PM Page 1 of 1 ___ " SUBSCRIBE HUNTING 11 Legendary Hunting Dogs There are great gun dogs, then there are those whose names will forever be remembered for their historically significant achievements BY TOM KEER YESTERDAY AT 1:50PM ! ! " # $ ! I love dogs which means I wouldn't walk a pheasant or quail field or sit in a blind without one. Dogs make every hunt. On some days they cast perfectly and handle every bird with ease. On others they plow through thick vegetation and crank out one blind retrieve after another. Those epic hunts make up for the times when they come unhinged and we cuss with the eloquence of a dockworker. But Momma didn't raise no quitter, so we get them back on track. It's all part of the game, and though we love our dogs best, some we've never met have found a place in our hearts—and gun dog history. Shadow Oak Bo is one of only two dogs to win back-to-back field trial National Championships Chris Mathan 1. Shadow Oak Bo Tell an All-Age field trialer that a setter has a shot to win the National Championship and he'll chuckle. Count Gladstone, a setter, won the first National in 1896, and for the next decade-plus, a setter winning the Super Bowl of bird dogs was as common as sunburn. But that was because pointers weren't allowed to compete. Pointers were welcomed in 1909, and since then they've put on a clinic. Their beat down on Professor Longhair was epic; the most recent setter win at Ames Plantation was Johnny Crockett and that was in 1970— when men wore super short cut-off jean shorts and knee-high tube socks while listening to the Partridge Family sing "I Think I Love You." But Shadow Oak Bo came along and he was legit.

  • The Gordon Setter
    THE GORDON SETTER Gordon Castle near Fochabers, Scotland Note: As early as 162l Gervase Markham refers to “black and fellow setting dogs.” in Hungers Prevention or The whole arte of fowling by water and land. “Fellows” being fallow, pale red or tan. Despite these early beginnings it is Alexander, 4th Duke of Gordon (1743-1827) and his son George, the 5th Duke (1770-1836) that are credited with the development of the Scottish black and tan Setter breed which bears the family name – the Gordon Setter The text of this article was written and edited by Herbert Compton in the Twentieth Century Dog Vol 11 Sporting Dogs published in 1904. Included in this text are appraisals by judges of the breed and an early breed standard. This text has been embellished with relevant art portraiture of the period for reader’s further enlightenment and enjoyment of these early writings. Bridget Simpson Portrait by Richard Reinagle of the George 5th Earl of Gordon 1. This variety of setter gained its title from having been first bred by the Duke of Richmond and Gordon at Gordon Castle, and has sometimes been called the “Scotch”, as well as the black and tan setter. :Idstone: dates the year of its appearance back to 1820, when the Duke of Gordon of that day interested himself in the breed. It was a bigger and coarser dog than others of its race, and its colour, the dewlap it carried, and the haw it showed suggested a not very remote dash of bloodhound blood. In Dogs of Scotland.
