IRISH SETTER
|
 |
APPEARANCE
The Irish
Setter is an active, aristocratic bird dog, rich red in color,
substantial yet elegant in build. Standing over two feet tall at the
shoulder, the dog has a straight, fine, glossy coat, longer on ears,
chest, tail and back of legs. A field, the Irish Setter is a
swift-moving hunter; at home, a sweet natured, trainable companion. At
their best, the lines of the Irish Setter so satisfy in overall balance
that artists have termed it the most beautiful of all dogs. The correct
specimen always exhibits balance, whether standing or in motion. Each
part of the dog flows and fits smoothly into its neighboring parts
without calling attention to itself.
TEMPERAMENT
The Irish
Setter has a rollicking personality. Shyness, hostility or timidity are
uncharacteristic of the breed. An outgoing, stable temperament is the
essence of the Irish Setter. Demonstrably affectionate.
