There are still quite a few people working pointers and setters but puppies are few and far between. Your best bet I would have thought would be to contact the breed club who would no doubt have the names of people who work their dogs.

Best wishes in your search, John

Hi Steve,

A good, proper working strain is Upperwood. We have two from their lines and are excellent workers (they work on the grouse moors doing counts). I know he has just mated a bitch as we are waiting for a pup. The bitch is very similar lines to one of our working dogs.

If you do a search on google.co.uk for Upperwood Pointers and Setters, you should find his details.

Let me know how you get on and if you have any more questions.

Helen
