Breeds

The Double Setter Doodle was created with the modern outdoor family in mind.  The combination of the Standard Poodle with the English and Irish Setters results in a healthier, smarter, and more well-rounded companion. All my parent dogs have a good nose, intense prey drive, as well as natural point.  I specifically selected breeding lines that maintained and fostered the drive to hunt.  Below are individual traits of each breed that when crossed creates a dual purpose companion that excels in the house and the field.
