Choosing a breeder is as important as choosing a dog

That's why Orvis endorses Paul Ober and Celtic Farms and Kennels
 

 

Celtic Farms and Kennels. My granddad told me that an Irish Setter gun dog was like a well-worn double: comfortable and sweet in your hands and joyful at your shoulder. Granddad was right, and we have been breeding Irish Setter gun dogs for 30 years. Only our Celts have ever won an Open All Breed Championship...and they did it twice. We produce dark, smallish sprites which exude class both going and pointing. Bred primarily for brains, so that training is a pleasure; bred secondarily for temperament, their love for humanity is more than an afterthought. Those qualities combine to make a fine gentleman’s shooting dog, the canine equivalent
of Granddad’s double Purdey. We will do our best to match one of our Celts to your home.
