Great Day doing some field work before we head to Michigan to team up with our Boise English Setters friends for a late season Ruffed Grouse hunt! Champ had a great day. 6 points, 3 backs, 4 retrieves to hand. Great day working and getting tuned up for the King. 😁

Contact Scott Ruby if interested. 606-923-0723. Oak Point Huckleberry is the stud and is out of our kennel. This is a great breeding. Nice pairing that will bring out the strong genetics of Matt Crane’s Boise English Setters grouse dogs. Matt and I are very pleased with this pairing.

Huckleberry has a visitor this week! If all goes well, Pinecreek Kennels (Scott Ruby) will be having a litter out of Huck and Hattie. These should be phenomenal pups! The pedigree stacks up really well and should produce some great Ryman Type pups. If interested check the litters page of our website for pedigree, health clearances and Pinecreek’s contact info.

We are happy and pleased to announce that we now have a proven stud dog available to offer stud service. Oak Point Boise’s Prince AKA “Champ” is a young Setter who is proven on wild birds. Champ spends the fall in Michigan with his breeder, Matthew Crane of Boise’s Setters hunting grouse and woodcock. When he returns home to Ohio, we chase the woodcock during their southern migration and finish pursuing wild Ohio Ringneck Pheasant.

Champ has great confirmation and weighs in at 58 pounds. He has a straight 9:00 tail and is a natural retriever. Champ excels in the woodlands. He has a gate of approximately 55-65 yds. Champ aims to please and is his masters partner in the field.

Champ is OFA certified and possesses a rating of EXCELLENT hips and NORMAL elbows.

Please contact me to discuss a breeding. We offer stud service to select females. We are happy to chat. My cell is 740-988-8860.

When Forbes named Sam Walton America's richest man on October 28, 1985, people were shocked to discover he lived a humble life in Bentonville, Arkansas, with a "muddy bird dog running around the yard." They were also surprised at his choice of vehicle, a 1979 Ford F150. But as Sam said, “Why do I drive a pickup truck? What am I supposed to haul my dogs around in, a Rolls Royce?”

How it All Began...

Oak Point English Setters is a family-centered gun-dog kennel. We are not radical animal rights activists, rather we offer a warm loving and kind approach to doing business. You will not

hear a negative word from us regarding other kennels in the English Setter business. We believe in taking a Christian approach in conducting our business practices and always following the golden rule, “Treat others as you would like to be treated!”.

Here at Oak Point we will be striving to produce what we call true Appalachian “Traditional” or “Classic” style English Setters. Our style of gun-dog would be that of days long past. Our dogs could be called a “Gentleman’s Dog” like many old Norman Rockwell paintings. We strive to produce the beauty that George Bird Evans so loved. As George Ryman once said, “I want a dog that is excellent in the field and a pleasure to the eye the rest of the year.” Our dogs are gentle, loving, affectionate, and always striving to please their owner. The foundation of our kennel is pictured above, Oak Point Trudy. We acquired Trudy from a fine Christian gentleman, Mr. Derek Smith, breeder and owner of Pine Mountain Setters of Daniels, West Virginia. Mr. Smith’s foundation blood was that from old time grouse hunters of Virginia, Mr. Woodrow Mullins and Mr. Tom Rasnic. We spent two years searching for the “Right” dog to get us up and running. I personally read many books and spent hundreds of hours talking to breeders from all over the country who were advertising the type of Setter I was looking for. After I talked with Mr. Smith, I knew right then he was the perfect match for us.

Here at Oak Point, we strive to produce a foot-hunting gun-dog. If you are looking for a trial-type Setter, we will not be for you. Our dogs are hunting dogs who are methodical and persistent. Sometimes I like to refer to them as “meat dogs” because you can rest-assured

that when they hunt and point there will be “meat” flying soon! Our dogs have natural instinctive retrieving skills and will typically point at an early age at a rag, or bird wing tied to a fishing pole. Our dogs are family dogs who love children and children love them. We strive to see that our pups are placed in homes with children as often as possible.

At Oak Point our breeding program revolves around four things in this particular order; (1) the dog must possess excellent hunting qualities, (2) the dog must be in excellent health and have at the minimum

an OFA rating of FAIR, GOOD, or EXCELLENT for hips, (3) the dog must possess an ideal breed standard for weight and conformation, and (4) have a likable personality free of personality disorder. Once we begin our breeding program we will screen future owners by a paper and phone interview process to ensure that our dogs will be right for you and you for them. We will also provide a full insurance program to guarantee the health of our dogs within our purchase agreement and contract.

We pride ourselves in being a total INDEPENDENT breeder and we are not affiliated with any group of breeders at all. All of our breeding practices and decisions are made solely by us. If you have always wanted a true Appalachian English Setter, please contact us today to talk about becoming part of the Oak Point family. Our email is:

[email protected]. We can be reached by phone or text at (740)988-8860. Happy hunting my friends and remember, the famous words of renown breeder and trainer Richard Weaver of Dark Hollow English Setters, “Great Grouse Dogs, make Great Grouse Dogs!”. Please contact today and get to know us, we hope that one day Oak Point is a regular respected name in the Setter world long after we are gone!
