Setter [species] - Setter
A breed of dog. Height at the shoulder is 61-68.5 cm. Native to England, Ireland, and Scotland. It is a good swimmer and is mainly used for waterfowl hunting. When it finds prey, it will lie down on its stomach to let the prey know (set), hence the name. The English Setter is said to have descended from the Spaniel and Spanish Pointer, and is covered in long, silky fur. Coat colors include black, white and tan, black and white, and white. Other breeds include the Gordon Setter, which has a heavier feel than its predecessor, and the Irish Setter, which has reddish-brown fur.
