English Setters

Picture
Finlayson's English Setters are bred for health, temperament and structure. All adults have been OFA hips and elbows and have had BAER hearing tests as puppies. I do not believe in breeding dogs that have allergies, structure issues or undesirable temperaments. This will help insure the best possible puppy for every family.

The sale of a puppy will include a health certificate, fecal exam, first distemper and kennel cough vaccine and a Puppy Class at Finlayson's. Puppies will also have started crate training for easier transition to the new home.

Puppies will be available to both pet/field and show homes, but must live inside the house of the new owner. These puppies are born and raised in a loving home not a barn or kennel. Mary Finlayson is an experienced trainer who takes pride in working with the puppies before they leave. They are constantly exposed to different people, dogs and children.

Call to see when the next litter is expected.


​Hello to all potential puppy seekers


Are you looking for an English Setter puppy in the next few months or near future. Covid has made this years breeding program challenging for sure.  Originally, I was supposed to breed in the spring, however due to the uncertainty of things I chose not to breed at that time. My litters for this year will be over this winter. Pups should be available between February, March or April.

 Please feel free to see videos on my Facebook Finlayson’s Pet Care.  You will see the dogs playing in the field with other dogs, showing and just being silly. I take great pride in my breeding Program. I do many health clearances on my breeding dogs before breeding. I offer a health guarantee and breed only stable temperaments that make the best companions for anyone.  I am a multiple award-winning breeder in English Setters. I am the breeder and co-owner of the number 3 ranking English setter in the US and Canada. I have been awarded breeder of the year by the English Setter Club of New England and many other awards for my efforts. I breed stable, loving and hard-working temperament for Service Dogs in my service dog program (Granite State Service Dogs). Feel Free to join our Granite State Service Dog FB page to view the setters at work.

The following information is for those who are looking for a puppy.

Litters -  A breeding has taken place and is due December 14th.

When can we talk?- I would love to speak with any party that is interested. I do have many inquiries. That being said, I would like to speak only to those who are ready and have put thought into having a puppy.  Often, we as breeders spend countless hours with potential homes only for them to back out. This is often due to circumstances that should have been considered before contacting a breeder.
 Please make sure all the following are addressed and considered before applying for a puppy.
1.       Does every member of your household WANT a puppy?
2.       Do you have arrangements for your puppy when you go to work? I understand with COVID many people are now working from home. This may seem great when you have a puppy. Just remember a puppy will demand attention making it hard for you to work. Its like having a 2 year old baby.
3.       Finances – Is the purchase price in your budget ($2500), are you financially able to handle future vet bills such as spay/ neuter, vaccines, and emergency fees?
4.       You must agree to spay and neuter if your dog is a pet
Meeting and video chats – Since Covid how we meet has changed. If your application looks promising, I will be happy to contact you by phone or video chat so you can see the dogs and I can answer questions. I will not hold large group gatherings as I have in the past. I will schedule private meet and greets for those who are approved. If you are from a specific state I will ask for a COVID test prior. At this time, you will not be obligated to buy a puppy. After this point if you decide to continue looking elsewhere, I can take you off the puppy list. Once a litter is confirmed I will start to take deposits from buyers in order of approval. The deposit is $500 to hold a puppy.
 There are no guarantees! I never know the sex of the puppies before they are born. Sometimes its almost an even split but sometimes its not. If I cannot supply you with a puppy I will return the deposit or you can wait until the next breeding.
 Who chooses the puppy- You will often have a choice out of a few pups. No one gets to choose from the whole litter. I will be choosing a dog for future breeding; the stud dog owner will often choose a pup. Next certain dogs will be chosen to be future service dogs with Granite State Service Dogs. All puppies that are left will go to pet homes in order of deposits.

How will you get your puppy? Please think about how you will get your puppy. You maybe close enough to drive, if you are not you may have to fly to get your puppy or drive.  The next litter will be ready to go home in mid-February.


Pre – Approval form. Below is an interest form. I will send a pre-approval form to you by email once you have completed the interest form. I will start contacting potential puppy homes the end of November. I will first email you with a time that I will call to talk more about the setters and and answer any questions.
