Many Irish setters compete in dog sports, and they do particularly well in obedience and hunt tests. ... Irish setters tend to be friendly and make good family dogs, but they can be a bit too big and rambunctious with small children.

  • The Irish Setter is a high-spirited gundog known for grace, swiftness, and a flashy red coat. They are famously good family dogs: sweet-tempered companions for the folks, and rollicking playmates and tennis-ball fetchers for the children. The Irish Setter has been described by its partisans as the most beautiful of dog breeds.
