Great looking dog, Don. As an aside, how many Barneget Bay Sneak Boxes do you have these days. I have 2.

100 percent. Had one red littermate, the rest all black and tans. They're how the breeder learned about having red recessive genes in both the sire and dam!mike campbell wrote:The red male is a Gordon?kgb wrote:The Gordon team is made up of a 3 y.o. female and an 8 y.o. male.
AKC allows for two alternate colors to be registered in Gordons, red and tan. They do not recognize chocolate or white, but both variations pop out sometimes. Only thing you can't do with the alternates is show them. My rufus doofus (littermate Casey too for that matter) came out tan, and a dark line down his back bled downward to make him red. I'm told that's how Irish setter pups develop their color as well. Hmmm.

Re: Your Hunting Dog(s)
Here is a 7 month old that should be ready to hunt by this fall as he is pretty steady now and just needs some birds killed over him.
