Sobre la raza
The English Setter descends from old 'setting spaniels' used to find birds and crouch so a net could be thrown over them. In the 19th century breeders such as Edward Laverack and Purcell Llewellin refined it into the setter we know, and the breed later split into heavier show lines and lighter working lines.
It is a soft, sweet-natured dog that loves company and gets along with most people and animals. It needs daily exercise and regular coat care, and it can be slow to mature. Expect an affectionate shadow that can be playful well into adulthood.
¿Sabías que…?
The word "belton" for the setter's speckled coat was coined by Edward Laverack after the village of Belton in Northumberland.
