Irish Red And White Setter

What item would you like to barter for this dog?

The Irish Red and White Setter dog breed barely escaped extinction when most breeders began focusing on the all-red varieties. Now they’re considered a separate breed from their Irish Setter cousins.

Even though these are purebred dogs, you may find them in the care of shelters or rescue groups. Remember to adopt! Don’t shop if you want to bring a dog home.

As gundogs, the Irish Red and White Setters are slow to train but eventually become loyal and reliable hunters. They can also be great family companions, though their high energy and exercise needs make them a poor choice for apartment dwellers or those who can’t keep up with them physically. If you can provide them with plenty of activity for their body and brain, this may be the breed for you!

See below for complete list of dog breed traits and facts about Irish Red and White Setters!

Give them a home with lots of room to run, and be prepared to train them with patience and consistency.
