--►The English Setter is a medium-size breed of dog. It is part of the setter group, which includes the red Irish Setters, Irish Red and White Setters, and black-and-tan Gordon Setters. The mainly white body coat is of medium length with long silky fringes on the back of the legs, under the belly and on the tail. The coat features flecks of colour, and the different colour varieties are referred to as belton.
A gentle but at times strong-willed, mischievous gun dog, bred for a mix of endurance and athleticism, it is used to hunt for game such as quail, pheasant and grouse. When working, the dog will hunt methodically seeking the airborne scent of its prey. It is sometimes referred to as the Laverack or Llewellin Setter as these were famous strains of the breed during the major development period in the 19th century. Those from hunting stock are generally of a finer build and with less coat than those bred for show exhibition.
Generally reasonably healthy, they have an average life span of 11 to 12 years. The Kennel Club advises UK breeders to screen for hip dysplasia.

I had an English Setter named Rusty of exceeding quality. He was smart enough to undo carabiners. He was a great, stealthy hunter. He was an even better friend. RIP buddy.
Just rescued an English Setter last weekend. Poor gent is about 30 or so pounds under weight. He was found running in a wilderness area. Only weighed 39# when I brought him home. But super smart. My other dog, a springer spaniel seems to like the company.

Yes we do. He’s a great fella
English setters are the best. Super friendly and always ready for fun
I adopted an English Setter via the Humane Society. She was a rescue from very bad conditions. We were not sure what breed we had until my wife and I worked with her to increase her trust in us and relax enough to show her true colors. OMG what a wonderful dog she is . Also an excellent ambassador for her breed.
A very beautiful dog.
wow... thank you for however much time you spent creating this! You've thoroughly answered my every question/concern and I even managed to leave with some really neat facts on the breed, care, history, and a newfound excitement for my potential new family member! Not to mention all the cute photos/videos... bravo my good sir 👏🙌✊

Do you have any suggestions/recommendations for potential first time owners not mentioned in this video?
Fairly accurate. No description of the refined cousin, Llewellins. Or for that matter while P. Llewellin was mentioned no description of hunting abilities of the breed. Also your description of price of a dog was quite inaccurate. My dashing bondhu female just this year cost me $1200. For $300 you get a mongrel not a decent dog.
My setters always bark when strangers come. ESPECIALLY the UPS man or woman!
Are setters more oily like water retrievers-like labs for example?
Llewellyn strain of the English Setter ? must have missed it. Can't really talk about English Setters without mentioning the Llewellyn.

I commented on that above. Laverack and Llewellin were briefly mentioned but the painstaking breeding process was ignored.

What are the differences? The only thing I can see is higher set ears on most and shorter hair
This video is nothing more then you reading a generic description of the Dog. VERY POOR VIDEO.
