This type of dog requires daily exercise and room to run within the borders. It is recognizable for its long, silky red and coat coat, which tends to hang longer around the ears, breast and back of the legs. The length of the SETR head is often double the length of its width and ends in a fine thin narrowing mouth. Most setter weigh between £ 60 and £ 70 (£ 27 to 32 kilograms).

Irish setter usually has a fun loving and independent personality. Although it is known that these dogs sometimes cause mischief and make some small or big mess, they are also intensely loyal and eager to please their masters. Many setters, when confronted with unlawful behavior, such as relaxation in the house or the destruction of a beloved family piece of furniture, will show regret and desire to reconcile with the Lord they retreated.

This dog breed tends to remain in his puppy phase of mental and emotional development longer than other large breeds. Once the Irish setter reaches full maturity, many of his habits are set for life.

These dogs flourish under the loving and educational environment and tend to respond negatively to physical forms of punishment and verbal abuse.

Many hunters prefer the use of Irish Setr over other hunting dogs for localization and retrieving Small Game kills.
