Let's talk Irish Setters

Irish Setters are instantly recognisable by their eye-catching feathered, rich red coats, but these lively and intelligent dogs have much more to offer besides their graceful good looks. They were originally bred as hunting dogs and still sometimes fulfil that role today, but as friendly as they are athletic, Irish Setters also revel in the role of family pet. Albeit sometimes mischievous family pets whose boundless energy needs to be channelled into exercise and play.
