Irish Red and White Setter Information
The Irish Red and White Setter and the Irish Setter have a common spaniel ancestor. At early Irish dog shows in the middle 1800's there were sometimes separate classes for the red and white colored setters and the red setters, and at other times they were shown together. By the end of the 1800's, the red and white variety had nearly vanished due to the popularity of the all red setter.
Males should stand at 24.5 to 26 inches tall and weigh 60 - 65 pounds, females slightly smaller. The base coloring of their coat is white, with red patches.
The Irish Red and White Setter is extremely friendly and adore children. They are not recommended for the novice dog owner due to their high energy level.
