I am thrilled to announce the expected litter of Laurel Mountain Llewellin Setter Puppies. Totem was bred to a Laurel Mountain Llewellin Setter, Dylan (out of Santana by Count), Dylan’s family is from northern Michigan. He is a fine Llew and loves to hunt wild and wilely Montana Pheasants. Totem is a 3-year-old Llew. She’s seen Ruffed Grouse in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and PA. She’s spent this season, 2 months, on Prairie Grouse and Pheasant in South Dakota.

Puppies are expected around December 9th and will be ready to go to their new homes in early February. They will be whelped and raised in Ligonier, PA 15658.

Puppies will have dew claws removed and undergo the Super Dog Program (Early Neurological Stimulation). They will be handled daily and raised underfoot. I introduce crate training, housetraining, bite inhibition, and everything I can think of to make their transition to a new home easier on them and you if you know how I raise puppies, you know.

Puppies will be available to excellent hunting homes only with preference to those that agree with raising a Llewellin Setter puppy as naturally as possible to give them the best health and life. This means leaning toward raw feeding, not kibble. This means using an integrative/holistic veterinarian. This means waiting until they are at least 3 years old and using alternative spay/neuter practices or keeping intact. This means responsible owners who believe in natural alternatives to fleas/ticks, etc., those who follow a minimal core vaccination protocol, etc.

There are now dozens of Llewellin Setter breeders, so why choose a Laurel Mountain Llewellin Setter puppy? I breed for the breed’s future as the quintessential upland hunting companion. A Laurel Mountain Llewellin dog used for breeding is hunted. They are raised with the least amount of chemical interference to the cells and the best nutrition to influence the epigenome of their offspring. Pups are introduced to every situation possible to give them the best start before they leave me. If the suggested protocols for vaccination, nutrition, low chemical exposure, and hormone-sparing spay or neuter (or kept intact) are followed, you will have the healthiest, disease-free dog possible. I believe this with everything in me and have proven it. Hunting dogs are athletes and while they may spend most of the year on the sofa, they need to have a foundation that reaches deep into their cells to perform in the field well into their senior years.

Send an email to inquire about reservations.

Stay tuned for all the updates.

Love, M.
