I think the link about the russian setter is wrong...--87.18.131.86 (talk) 19:11, 21 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

I am going to try to remove the use of the words evolved and evolution in the Attributes section. Domestic animals did not evolve per se, they were selectively bred. Huw Powell (talk) 01:04, 9 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

I deleted Brittany and French Brittany from the list of setters as they are actually spaniels.

Name origin

edit

the text makes it sound like the name comes from sitting down near the game (see "set" in chapter Function). is that actually the case? this text makes it seem like that is not actually the case. https://projectupland.com/hunting-dogs/the-truth-behind-the-setting-spaniel/ 2A02:6D40:215B:7301:85BB:D9BC:F5D0:4AEF (talk) 01:34, 2 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
