About Rye
Rye is our third Spinoni. Our first two Spinoni, were so wonderful that we wanted to get a third Spinone. She is the daughter of Larch that we kept from Larch’s first litter. At Birdsboro, our goal is to produce great dual-purpose dogs. Dual-purpose means that the dogs excel in both hunting and have correct conformation. Rye carries on this tradition that her mother was great at. We are hoping for great things from her.
Rye The Show Dog
Rye has not begun her show career yet. We are going to give her some more time and then plan on outing her in the show ring.
More of her show side.
Rye The Birddog
Rye has been out hunting a couple of times and has done well. She has plenty of drive and a very good retrieve. I feeling she is going to be a fun hunting partner. I look forward to some more future ringneck and grouse hunts with her.

Oh poor Rye having such a hard time fitting in and finding a place to sleep. I mean really, a spot in front of the fire? Ha!
Rye also seems to love her adoptive sister Saffron. They've really taken a shine to one another.
