Through our
love for the Labrador Retrievers and our experience with hunting
upland birds with these flushing dogs, we chose to expand our
kennel to include a pointing breed. After researching the
different breeds, we chose the English Setter.
UT Iron
Point's Major of Larke
Major and his hunting buddies, Randy Weitzel and Pat
Crawford took first place in the pointing dog team
division at the Northeast Regional Chukar Challenge Hunting
Dog Championship on March 16, 2008. This event was held at
Warriors Mark Wingshooting Lodge at Ginter, Pa. This was
Randy and Pat's first time at handling a dog and competing
in a Chukar Challenge. Their handling and shooting ability
complimented Major's superior field work and pointing. They
scored 387 out of a possible 490 to capture the championship
in this division. The judge of this event complimented
Major's style and natural ability while working the fields
with two novice handlers. He said that Major is a
beautiful dog and flowed through the fields with such
purpose and ease. Major's sire is owned by pro-trainer Curt
Fry of Slamming Point Kennels of New Brighton, Pa. The dam
is owned by Daryl Pitzer of Iron Points Kennels of Fombell,
Pa.

This is Major. He is our
first English Setter. He has been a real pleasant addition
to our kennel. He is tri-colored. His sire has his
AKC MH title, NAVHDA Versatile Champion and AKC Field Trial
Placement. His dam has her AKC MH
title. He has a really calm demeanor but yet springs to
life when he knows he is going hunting. He has a real love for
children. Major is in training with trainer, Curt Fry, of
Slamming Point Kennel, north of Pittsburgh Pa. Major received
his NAVHDA Utility title with a "Prize 1"
at the Delaware Valley Club in NJ. He will be going to
the NAVHDA Invitational in
2010. He ran a NAVHDA Natural
Ability test on June 3, 2006. He earned a
"Prize 1" with a
score of 112. Many thanks to Curt for a job well done!
Major is now available for stud service. OFA
hips "good" and elbows "normal".
He has had his eyes CERF. Major will be running for his AKC
MH title in the summer of 2010 and in Sept. will be traveling to
Iowa for his Versatile Champion title.

Larke Cabela Blue Jewel "Bella"
We purchased Bella from Scott Berg at Berg Brothers Gun Dogs in
Dayton, Minnesota. Bella will be trained to hunt for upland
birds and will be part of our breeding program. Bella
ran in the NAVHDA Natural Ability Test in June 07 and
received a Prize 3. Bella's hips are OFA excellent and elbows
are normal. She has a current CERF (eyes) Bella will be having
her next litter in the fall of 2010.

Ruby Red Maddie JH
Maddie is our youngest addition to our kennel.
She comes from Berg Bros. English Setters from Minnesota. She has
the sweetest personality and thinks she should be a lap dog. She is a
half-sister to our Bella. Maddie received her AKC JH title on
5-23-09. She earned a 1st place in an AKC puppy trial in the
spring of 09. Her OFA finals are good on her hips and
her elbows are normal. She has a clear CERF for her eyes.
This is Maddie with our
trainer, Curt Fry. Many
thanks to Curt. Maddie went 4 for 4 to receive her JH title!!

Larke Slamming Point Colt

This is Colt, who is a Blue Belton. He is the son of our Bella and
Ranger from Slamming Point Kennels. Colt ran a NAVHDA Natural Ability
Test at the age of nine months on June 6, 2010. He earned a Prize 2.
Congrats to Larry on a job well done! Hopefully he will be standing
here at stud in another year at our kennel. He will be going to Curt
Fry next year to start his training for his Utility title!
