Northwoods Blue Ox

“Oscar” is an even-masked, orange-and-white setter that weighs a solid 50 pounds. He is powerfully built with a strong gait and tremendous endurance, in addition to being a good warm weather dog. Oscar has tons of desire but will adapt to the cover and handle to the hunter. He is lofty and intense on point, backs and naturally retrieves. He is a strong bird finder with an exceptional nose and is a natural at pointing ruffed grouse—we’ve already shot our share of them over his points. He has also pointed woodcock, sharptail grouse, pheasants and Mearns quail. Oscar has a great disposition—very sweet and calm in the kennel but can turn it on in the field. His pedigree is filled with outstanding wild bird dogs and blue-ribbon, field trial performers.
