Red & White Setter

Sheibhin Thado
Sire :- Sheibhin Cathal Dam :- Rathbeg Toni
BREEDER :- Rev P Doherty. OWNER :- Mr & Mrs S Quinlan

Generally accepted as the ancestor of the Irish Red Setter, the Red & White was popular in Ireland before 1860. The breed was kept alive by breeders who knew it's superior working qualities, but only reappeared in the late 1970's. Not racy like the Red Setter and more compact in build, this is a fast biddable, intelligent setter. The coat is well feathered and fine in texture, of medium length without being profuse.
Colours are white with chestnut patches on the head and body. The patches are distinct and any flecking should be confined to the lower legs and foreface.
