Exclusively Setters

Home for Irish Setter Lovers Around the World

I recently met a man during a walk with my dogs, that were running around like crazy, as a normal setter will do. When he called me. I honestly expected the usual "oh these dogs are crazy/stupid/both". I was completely wrong, and had a wonderfull suprise! I wish I had recorded what he said, but I'll try to pass on the general idea:

The Irish Setter:

"Their feet touch the ground with the legance of a horse, their backs have feline elasticity. They look up in a way onle a noble creature will, and their eyes show the kindness and loyalty only a dog will show.

If I was God visiting Earth, I would choose to walk the ground in an Irish Setter skin.

Take good care of your dogs, every moment you have toghether is a little miracle."

He described our dogs in such a poetic and beautiful way that I just had to share it with every other proud owner!

I agree with Carmel he must own or have owned one, lovely to hear kind words about them instead of 'Oh it's one of those nutty, scatty dogs.'
