John Bolus owned and operated the Killbuck Kennels at the back of his house property on N. Grant street where he bred and raised dogs. His specialty were English and Irish Setter dogs. His kennel had a national reputation and he often traveled to dog shows across the country in the 1880s where his dogs usually took top honors. He was also a well-known judge at many dog shows. Many of his stud dogs' names still appear in setter pedigrees today.
