Irish Setters are extremely swift, with an excellent sense of smell and are hardy over any terrain and in any climate. The Irish Setter is used for all types of hunting. Irish Setters have balanced, elegant, medium-sized frames (sometimes larger) covered in silky red coats that grow long on the ears, tails and chests. Their handsome, lean heads have long muzzles, almond shaped eyes, dark noses and long, thin ears.

Irish setters stand between 25 and 27 inches (64 and 69 centimeters) high at the shoulder and weigh from 60 to 70 pounds (27 to 32 kilograms). Basically a hunting dog, the Irish setter is also popular as a pet. Irish Setters present a training challenge because they are stubborn, easily distracted, and quick to bore, but most of them are quite intelligent. It takes a great deal of patience and commitment to train an Irish Setter; however, such training is an absolute necessity, and it usually proves to be fun and rewarding for both dog and owner. Irish Setters are not naturally aggressive, although can bark to protect the area from strangers. Despite being marked as slow-witted dogs by many, their trainability as working gun dogs belies this.

Many people associate German Shepherd Dogs with being aggressive watchdogs, but this behavior is the result of training. A German Shepherd Dog will always be protective of his family and will always be wary of strangers, but they are not aggressive by nature.

For me German Shepherds are defined by beauty and soundness of mind and body all come together. Don’t leave the purchase of your German Shepherd to chance. German Shepherds also are prone to pancreas deficiency, which is where the pancreas stops creating enzymes and the animal is unable to pass any faeces. There is medication available, but it is not 100% effective. and also expensive, so be sure you have a proper pet medical insurance.

I personally love walking for pleasure using a harness.  The best harnesses can be found here.  I harnesses on my full grown dogs when going for long pleasure walks…I just finished going for 4 days to Point Pelee and the harnesses were great for this kind of walking.
