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.

Berg 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.
