Gordon Setter Dog Breed Information Profile

A loyal family dog that thrives on fresh country air and lots of room in which to roam, the Gordon Setter is a natural for field trials and other canine competitions. Originally developed by the Duke of Gordon as a working setter in the early 19th century, the Gordon Setter is the only setter of Scottish ancestry.  Early Gordon Setters were also used to herd sheep and point to feathered game.

The Gordon Setter is a ruggedly built dog who may have some Collie blood in it's family tree was very well suited to Scotland's treacherous highland terrain and cool, wet weather. The Gordon Setter has been a favorite breed among sportsmen since it was first introduced to North America in 1842. Over the past few decades, this dapper black and tan setter has developed into a serious competitor in canine competitions, field trials and dog shows.

Gordon Setter males measure 24 to 27 inches at the shoulder and weigh up to 80 pounds. Females are smaller, measuring 23 to 26 inches at the shoulder. The Gordon Setter's sleek, shiny black coat with rich tan markings should be brushed regularly with occasional trimming.

The Gordon Setter is a loving and very loveable dog that makes a great addition to the family.
