A graceful, elegant gundog, the English Setter today excels in the show, obedience and agility rings as well as in the field. Although similar in function to the Irish and Gordon Setters, the English is a distinct breed, differing personality and appearance. Their beautiful feathered coat is white with an intermingling of darker hairs resulting in markings called belton. Belton markings can be orange, blue (white with black markings), tricolor (blue belton with tan points), lemon and liver.
