The
English Setter is a gun dog, bred for a mix of endurance
and
athleticism. They are energetic, people-oriented
dogs, that are well suited to families who can give them
attention and activity, or to working with a hunter, where
they have a job to do. When provided with plenty of exercise,
they settle nicely indoors into cuddling couch potatoes.

English Setter History
The English Setter was originally bred to set or point
upland game birds. From the best available information,
it appears that the English Setter was a trained bird dog
in England more than 400 years ago. There is evidence that
the English Setter originated in crosses of the Spanish
Pointer, large Water Spaniel, and Springer Spaniel, which
combined to produce an excellent bird dog with a high degree
of proficiency in finding and pointing game in open country.
The modern English Setter owes its appearance to Mr. Edward
Laverack (1800-1877), who developed his own strain of the
breed by careful breeding during the 19th century in England
and to another Englishman, Mr. R. Purcell Llewellin (1840-1925),
who based his strain upon Laverack's and developed the
working Setter. Today, you still hear the term Llewellin
Setter, but this is not a separate breed, they are however
a completely separate and pure bloodline. Field-bred English
Setters are often mistakably referred to as "Llewellin",
but only DNA can tell the difference.
With time, Laverack bred
successfully to produce beautiful representatives of
the breed. The first show for English Setters was held
in 1859 at Newcastle upon Tyne. The breed's popularity
soared across England as shows became more and more widespread.
Not long after, the first English Setters were brought
to North America, including those that began the now-famous
Llewellin strain recorded in the writing of Dr. William
A Burette. From this group of dogs came the foundation
of the field-trial setter in America, "Count Noble," who
is currently mounted in the Carnegie Museum at Pittsburgh.
At present, the English is one of the most popular and
elegant sporting breeds, often grouped with its cousins,
the Irish and Gordon Setters.
The field type & show type English Setter look very
different, even though they are the same breed. Field type
setters are often smaller and are seen without the coat
than the show type. For this reason, in the English Setter
breed, compared to other breeds, there are very few Dual
Champions (dogs that have completed their show & field
championship titles).
