I'm Danielle E., the breeder behind Bit O’ Gold Gordon Setters located in La Valle, WI. We have been breeding Gordon Setters since 1984 and have been successful in producing over 30 Gordon Setter litters. We provide lifetime support to our buyers. Although we enjoy the conformation ring, many of our pups have competed in performance events and used as personal hunting companions.
