    I don't know :102: honestly it's way to hard to choose ;-)

    I like the sound of the english character and the ones I've met have all had lovely natures which I really love so if was just on character they might have the edge for me but not always my fav looking setter.
    I like the look of most of the Gordons but a couple of the Gordons I've seen are a bit wary (which would make the Eng and Irish appeal to me more), although did see one at a show that jumped up at a passerby who was trying to drink her tea which almost went all down her top :lol: and there are some dual pupose Gordons which appeal.
    The Irish I've seen less of, but so far I really like them as well they always have a very sweet expression and there is nothing to match the glossy coats in the sun.
    The R&w seen some lovely and some not so.

    So would not rule out any of them :p :grin: But the English would win on character very closely followed by Irish then the other two, if I was going only on looks it'd be very different and the working types would have to come into it.

    Aww, you see looks wise I prefer the English, plus I love their norty ways!!:lol: Then I love the Irish and Gordons, I think the latter tend to be more reserved? I have to be honest I am not keen on the Irish Red and White, mainly due to what I have heard about temprements... but you can get good and bad in every breed. I also like the working ES too;-)

    Yes I think thats what I picked up on (the bit in bold)
    Ok yeah prob would not go for R&W but there is a bitch at our training classes who is nice - started a little bit reserved but nothing bad, but also seen a R&W dog owned by the same person which kept going for other dogs had a go at mine a couple of times but my dog ignored it she only took it a couple of times. So Eng or Irish would be top of the list, btw I do like the English looks wise and think the working type Eng are prob my fav looking setter (but thats only from pics I've seen of them) I just have a thing about ears :p I prefer them to be quite hairy on a hairy breed, but I guess if you didn't trim/strip they would be more hairy??? Anyway that wouldn't put me off having one.

    Keep the photos coming :grin:

    The English do have hairy ears, the showers tend to trim them down, as do I, as it makes their ears cooler and they can suffer with ear problems.;-) My Tess had hairy ears, so did Jamie's mummy!!:lol:

    Think as Rach says some do, some don't. I wouldn't say either of ours drool particuarly badly, though if pushed I'd say Chester, irish, more so than Griffin, gordon x. I was looking at spins to rescure pre pup and compared to something beardy like that they're a dream;-) :mrgreen: !
