No dog is truly hypoallergenic, and setters are definitely not a breed that some people consider 'hypoallergenic' or low allergy.
Gordon Setters are a very intelligent breed. They do have a high energy level, and tend to get bored if their minds aren't stimulated.
9 months Maybe 12 I think whoever answered above misunderstood your question!! Gestation period of all dogs is the same.....from 59 to 63 days.
Just about as often as your daughter does...Serriously though, most setters (any dog for that matter) usually comes into heat twice a year.
English Setters purchased from a responsible breeder (AKC/show type) sell between $900.00 - $2500.00. And price can depend on the area of the country where the puppy/dog is located. Field bred (strictly hunting line) can begin at a lower price but can go as high as many show bred puppies. Breeder should be willing and eager to discuss the parents health and temperament background, as well as discuss the temperament of their puppies. Reliable breeders do not send puppies into their new home earlier than 8 weeks of age, often many send pups home over 8 weeks of age.
The setters in the dog world do both kill and retrieve. They set or crouch behind prey and bring it down. The retrievers get the prey after the master shoots it. The pointers point to the prey for the hunters to shoot. The spaniels flush out prey for the master to shoot in the air.
