My vet recommended neutering my English Setter at 6 months old, but a lot of the research I’ve done suggests waiting longer, especially for larger breeds.

I’m a little confused about why my vet would recommend 6 months when so much of what I’ve read suggests waiting until they’re more physically mature. I want to make sure I’m making the best decision for my dog’s long-term health and development.

We don't get out enough hunting with the boys because LIFE, but they do go to a hunting kennel when we travel and get on birds. This is both of them from the past weekend.

Didn't find any grouse today, but can't beat a morning out in the mountains.

Her favorite spot when I get home from work 💕

So stinking cute. Love her. 😍😍😍

Hi all!

I'm looking for recommendations on reputable breeders in the Midwest (preferably MN, ND, SD, WI, IA) for English Setter pups. Ideally would like to train them for bird hunting (grouse and pheasant). Looking to get on wait-lists for future litters as we're looking ~ 3 years down the line before we're ready to welcome the pup home!

TYIA 😊

I can assure you it's functioning exactly as it's supposed to 😂

Our ES is now 10 years old and we are looking for a car ramp that is hopefully durable and foldable for space. We have a Subaru Forester.

How far back is everyone placing dog kennel on Decked system?

hello! im looking for a setter puppy, does anyone know any breeders who have litters coming up?

Our sweet Charlie! We rescued him on July 31st, and just one day after coming home, he ended up spending almost an entire month in the ICU with pneumonia. Now he’s had all of his vaccines and has gained 8 pounds so far! We’re so happy to see how far our sweet boy has come.

Almost 13 years later! She's slowed down in her older age. I love all her cuddles

Frankie is the sweetest 2 year old baby.

Honestly, she's such an amazing dog.

I wish I could have let her roam free in that forest, she looked fantastic against the green moss. Orange looks best in autumn and blue in winter, what's best for orange and blue english setters?

Anyone else's baby have a routine fight trying to get the braincell?
