Dr. Scott "Doc" and Caitlin own and operate Ankeny Animal & Avian Clinic in 
Ankeny, Iowa. Doc has been a veterinarian for 35 years. We bought our first setter in 1996. Doc's thought at the time was "I've never met a setter as a patient that I wouldn't take home as a pet." Caitlin was only too happy to greet the arrival of their first Llewellin who proved not only to be a marvelous pet but an amazing hunter for Doc. We started out in the city with one Llewellin but it quickly became apparent that one was not enough so we moved to the country to have two or three.
Thirteen years later we've built a beautiful kennel and now have nine. All of them are wonderful house pets.
Hunting and training Llewellins became Doc's passion and Caitlin's enthusiasm for puppies has led us to this point. We are a small hobby kennel - having a limited number of litters yearly. Our requirement for breeding stock is that they housebreak readily, make friends for us at our pet hospital, and hunt better than Doc's buddies' dogs! Additionally we border on obsessive about the quality of our dog's hips as we know this is the number one genetic problem with Llewellin Setters.
What sets us apart from other Llewellin breeders?
We offer a 15 day grace period on all of our puppy purchases and we offer a guarantee that they will hunt.
