Hickory Hollow Llewellin Setters

This is Bandit from Litter EE and owned by the Borah’s of Michigan. Bandit is a beach bum . The Borah’s sent us this video and there are two things to note…Llews do swim and quite well; and that is one smart duck. Thank you Borah’s for sharing! Bandit is in the perfect home. #hickoryhollowllewellins

It’s not all puppies and hunting trips. It’ll grey you some days or in my case bald you. #hickoryhollowllewellins

I’ve been around bird dogs my entire life. There are just not many braces I’ve ever seen ran 7 at a time without a rodeo. A good deal of dogs can’t run two at a time effectively. Yet here we are, a brace of 7, nearly every summer morning and evening. I wish I could tell you there’s a trick to it and I’m a magical trainer. The reality is these dogs are smart enough to know we aren’t hunting, we’re just out enjoying the evening, getting some exercise, nosing up butterflies. That said, there’s no reason for them to act like their tails are on fire…just nice and easy. It was a super nice evening. #hickoryhollowllewellins

Summer mornings! #hickoryhollowllewellins

One of the oldest hotels in the west allows dogs for an extra $20. The Grand Hotel in Big Timber, MT. I asked if it was ok for the dogs to get on the bed and they said we’d have it no other way. Ruby and Puddin’ getting their last bit of play time together. #hickoryhollowllewellins

They were both interested; and then they both were of the opinion it was not good to be interested. #hickoryhollowllewellins

Puppies-Puppies-Puppies!!! #hickoryhollowllewellins

Litter DD eating it up. The three pups in this litter remind me so much of two of our adult dogs. Biggest hearts and biggest workers we have. Of course their mom is Skylar too from 4 years ago. #hickoryhollowllewellins

Litter EE gobbling down some good stuff. #hickoryhollowllewellins

It’s raining , it’s raining!!! Savvy gandering contemplations of better scent conditions. It’s the driest I’ve ever seen it around here…until today. #hickoryhollowllewellins

Litter DD. We’ve got some movers and shakers in this group! #hickoryhollowllewellins

We continue to struggle keeping both live puppy cams connected. The disappointment is real. We’re looking into another solution. Sorry for the inconvenience. #hickoryhollowllewellins

Skylar growing pups. #hickoryhollowllewellins

Green grass will soon turn dormant and when it does we are ready to go with big wide runs in big wide places. #llewellinsetter #birddogoftheday #birddog #hickoryhollowllewellins #birddogs

If only there were field testing for sprinkler hunting with Llews. Shelby would kill it. #llewellinsetter #birddogoftheday #birddog #hickoryhollowllewellins

The guess how many steps game. Such a frustrating game to play…and listen to, but it is outside! #uplandbirds #birddogs #hickoryhollowllewellins #birddog #birddogoftheday #llewellinsetter

HHLS dogs working the sage over…and a kid flinching at the flight of a bird iconic to these sage brush places…Sage Grouse. #actforgrasslands #uplandbirds #birddogs #hickoryhollowllewellins #birddog #birddogoftheday #llewellinsetter #sagegrouseinitiative

We are sure going to miss the Litter CC gang. #uplandbirds #birddogs #hickoryhollowllewellins #birddog #birddogoftheday #llewellinsetter
