We're a small family breeder of healthy, affectionate Irish Setters, English Cocker Spaniel, and Samoyeds based in the Manitoba prairie. Our mission is to breed the highest quality Hillsetkennel Dogs with an emphasis on health and temperament, combined with early socialization and development from day one. Each parent dog is extensively health tested and each puppy comes with a health guarantee. Put simply: We're committed to raising exceptional puppies you can't help but fall in love with.
We are NOT a kennel. We provide our breeding dogs with loving guardian homes and our puppies with well-suited buyers, so they have an excellent quality of life from day one!
I fell in love with the setters after reading the book, Big Red, I fell in love with there loyalty, there personality, there clownish behavior and their ability to think and act fast.
My setters have proven there loyalty multiple times in front of strangers and in places where I felt unsafe.
Thier clownish, smart behavior will have you in no time laughing, they make things up right on the way.
There energy level is high and they love to go with me into the field and frolick, they are very passionate and love to be petted and recieved attention.

I love the Samoyeds because they are such friendly dogs and they love being in a family environment. With the right socialisation, they are usually great with children and will be very loyal to the whole family – although they may sometimes favour one chosen person.
These are intelligent dogs, with a touch of independence.
They love to be petted and love attention. This playful dog enjoys vigorous outdoor exercise, especially in cold weather. Especially Canada's long winters, they don't like to sleep on carpets in our home, they like the plain floor or their favourite the nice snow outdoors.

I enjoy spending time with my English cocker spaniels. I chose this breed because they love adventures and are always in a cheerful mood. I love English Cocker Spaniels because of their loyalty, optimism, intelligence, and that constantly wagging tail!
This is a breed that enjoys being with their human family and having a job to do, which makes them great companions.
