I flew from Reno to Kansas City and back Tuesday just to meet Emily and bring her home. My great friend, toltecgriz , got her sister, Teeter, and told me there was one puppy left at the breeder's. He sent me a picture, and I was sunk. My only surviving orange belton Llewellin setter is old Jenny, and she's too old to breed. So, I ponied up money I didn't have and used plastic for a plane ticket and flew to KSC. Dave there picked up Emily when he got Teeter and babysat for me until I could get there. Emily is a great pup. She is big, strong, alert, assertive, bold, loving, and uses her nose with her head held proudly. She's always on the move with a purpose, so she's hard to photograph with my cell phone. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/uSrbuMn.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/o5tvH4E.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/ucsw1fU.jpg)

She's a big girl at 8 1/2 weeks. It didn't take long for her to settle in. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/8byIHsV.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/M7JwcY2.jpg)

She's gorgeous. Great looking pup.
When I was younger, dad had a similarly colored English setter named Chip. Plan was for birds but Chip was killed by a car before he even got started. Replaced with a black/white named Katie. Then dad moved onto labs for pheasants.
As I'm starting my own bird hunting career this year - I know a dog is in the future and damn if its hard to not want a setter for sure.
Again - she's a doll.

Her mom is a field trial champion and competed last weekend and will again next weekend. This breeder sure has some excellent dogs. I'll pm you her contact info if you wish. She's in Missouri.
Emmy's body will color out about like old Jenny.

Yes. Just yes.
Not sure if there’s a question where a puppy is not the answer.

Hey Emily,
The whippets say hello and have fun gettin' after them feathered critters!

In it is contentment
In it is death and all you seek

Thank you so much for posting these. I've been looking forward to them. Looks like a sweet little girl who has tired out her big sisters.
