Musashi: Musashi is a wonderful dog. He is exceptionally easy to train and easy to live with.
He was AKC's #2 Field Trial Puppy Irish Setter for 2004 in limited trialing.
Unfortunately he tore his ACL knee ligament and his recovery from that injury has been very slow.
He has tonnes of desire to run, he has tonnes of desire to point, and if we can get him back into shape I know he will readily acquire his Master Hunter and Field Dog Excellent titles. I am not confident that we can get him sound enough for the rigors of field trailing, but he is breaking out easily, gently, and loves to hunt, and we are hopeful that hunt tests will not be too much for him after his rehabilitation.
Because of his knee injury, we have not been able to show him since he was a junior puppy.
Musashi is very dark, carries good coat volume, has phenomenal front angulation, and elegant style.
He has a dark eye, pleasing head, and wonderful demeanor.

Bonnie: Bonnie lives with the Mcbride/Keetons - friends of ours.
She is from my breeding to the Gwyndara dog that Leanne and Trevor Jones sent from Australia. Catcher passed on his sweet loveable temperament to all his kids, and Bonnnie is no exception.
Bonnie is a small bitch in height, but not in stature - she is a bit of a tomboy. She is rich chestnut in colour, has excellent coat texture, a beautiful head, and excellent rib spring.
She is swift and determined in the field, and possesses an excellent nose. Bonnie was always quick to find birds, but her desire to point was not always as strong as it could have been - breeding her to Musashi is the perfect solution since he would love to point all day.
Bonnie is sound, solid, and sweet - she will produce beautiful babies. Her sister Grace produced some really nice pups when bred to Pam Legault's Can Ch Palarset's Phoenix Ricochet.

Bonnie's sweet determination, and her strong correct body, are going to be a super mix with Musashi's elegance, talent, and temperament. I cannot wait to see these pups, they will be the first of my line breedings on our foundation bitch BIS/BISS Can Am Ch Cairncross Forerunner TDI ROM
While Bonnie is an outcross of a Becky daughter to Australian lines, Musashi is from an outcross of a Becky son to a North American dual pedigree. We are , as usual, hoping to get some nice dual potential (or triple, with these temperaments) out of this litter.
Interested parties should contact us early. SORRY this litter is all spoken for!
