I'm Bobbi F., the breeder behind Kilkieran Kennel Irish Setters and Snowstorm Labradors located in Dover, OH. I'm a steward of the future of Irish Setters, field Labrador Retrievers. I'm careful to always maintain ethical breeding practices. This includes proper health, DNA testing, breed specific required testing, intentional breeding for specific traits, and raising our puppies with proper socialization.
Q. & A. with Bobbi
Why did you start breeding?
I had many people that wanted a dog like mine, so I had my first litter of Irish setters in the 1980. I have had Labrador Retrievers since 2000.
What makes your program special?
The puppies are all Socialized and happy. I like to match the puppy with the new owners. All started on heartworm and flea/tick protection, vaccinations and all are ISO microchipped.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Labrador Retriever puppies include black and yellow. Irish Setter puppies include red and mahogany. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
