English Setters are medium to large-sized dogs. Adult males typically weigh between 65-80 pounds, while females usually range from 45-65 pounds. Their height generally measures between 20-27 inches at the shoulder.

English Setters are known for their friendly, gentle, and affectionate nature. They are sociable dogs that tend to get along well with children and other pets. They are also intelligent and eager to please, which makes them easy to train. However, consistent training and socialization are important, especially in their early development.

The coat of an English Setter is medium-length, flat, and somewhat silky. It is characterized by a feathered appearance on the ears, legs, chest, and tail. The coat can come in various color patterns, with combinations of white, orange, black, and liver.

English Setters thrive in active households, as they require regular exercise to keep them healthy and happy. They do well in environments where they have space to run and play. A secure yard or access to parks for walks and playtime is ideal. 

Due to their energetic nature, English Setters enjoy various activities including hunting, running, agility training, and obedience exercises. Engaging in regular outdoor adventures can help channel their energy positively. Additionally, they often excel in canine sports like field trials and hunting competitions.
