Setter - Coat/Temperament

Coat/Temperament

Most setter breeds have long smooth, silky coats that require maintenance. While Gordons, Irish and English setters usually undergo some trimming for presentation in the show ring, Irish Red and White setters do not require as much work as they have lighter coats.

Setters have a tendency to be happy, playful dogs and are usually very friendly both to people and other dogs. They have a great deal of energy and require daily exercise.
