The Sire:

Rice Creek's Labor of Love, "Dash" is one of the most affectionate Gordons I've ever known.  He lives for our attention!  He is a very mellow and well-mannered boy, yet knows how to burn up the field looking for birds.  He is a handsome boy and has proven to be an excellent stud dog for us. Dash is OFA-Good.

Below is a picture of Dash.  Click on the picture to see a larger version.  Dash is by DC Tarbaby's Setanta T Rex JH and out of our Rice Creek Ink Jet, "Jetty".

The Dam:

Rice Creek Jesus Lives, "Livi" is a smaller, sweet girl who can really move out in the field.  

Livi and Rice Creek's "J" Litter came to be by leasing Linda Sanders' female, Chaparral Zayna SH.  Zayna had impressed me with her way of going in the field, her sweet and loving temperament and also her size (smaller) and her hips (OFA-Good).  Livi was whelped 10/15/04.

I brought Zayna to my favorite Gordon of all time, DC AFC Carolina's All Hat, No Cattle, "Stetson", who has (in January, 2009) just also achieved his Master Hunter title, one of only a handful of Gordon Setters ever to achieve his Dual Championship (conformation and field trial), his Amateur Field Championship (field trial owner-handled) and now his Master Hunter title.  Not to mention that Stetson is our Abbey's (Ch. Chaparral Rad Aclee Clearcut CD SH) grandson.  AND I really, really love his loving temperament and his drive and range in the field.

Livi's brother, FC Rice Creek's Jesse James, "Rigby", owned by Allen Bailey, placed 4th in the National Amateur Championships at the 2008 Gordon Setter Club of America's National Field Trial in Washington State. Congratulations, Rigby, Allen and Linda (handler)!
