    Love Irish Setters! Was just speaking about the with our Vet yesterday. She's been a Vet for 20 years and has never seen one as a patient. Ours was huge as a kid, he could easily clear the 6' stockade fence around our yard. Mont had a big ol Setter way back when he started 2C.

      Yes, mine could jump fences too well also. And as mentioned many times, he could run forever. I think that big chest for their size has big lungs, so they are NOT short winded.

    Beautiful girl and we all know she is in good hands.
    Looking forward to meeting her at the gathering and I know some kids that will be excited also.

        One very fortunate pup!
        I purposefully stayed off the should I do it thread...but heartily congratulate you for taking that cutie (Red) in.
        We had an Irish Setter 50 years ago that we adopted off a shrimp boat in Seabrook. Oh the tales I could tell...friendliest, selective hearing, happy go lucky dog I have ever seen. And can they run!
        Congrats, and may you be rewarded greatly!

            We had a female Irish Setter growing up and was the best dog EVER! She retrieved thousands of doves and was a great pet and got along with other dogs well. If I had the time and energy for another dog, these would be high on my list.

                  Vetting should be #1 on your list. If they didn't keep up with her vaccinations you will want to get these started before introducing her to your two Chi's.
                  She has no idea where she is, and that you saved her, so for a long while I would not let her loose in a non fenced in area for a long while.
                  Attach a leash to her harness and let it go. She will start to get used to this after a time. Keeping a leash on her when you are outside with her is also a quick way to grab her (by the leash) and not startle her too much.
                  It may take her a long time to trust you, so, please be extra patient. We've had AnnaBelle for 4 years now and she still isn't sure about Ed and won't readily go to him.
                  Time is your best friend, and I'm sure Red will learn to love and trust you...in her timing.

                  Congratulations, again, on your newest addition to your family! 🐾❤️🐾

                      I'm at the vet to get vaccinations and check up.
                      I've decided that her name is Kylie Red.

                        How did Kylie's check up go, was she scared?
                        Trust in the Lord with all your heart
                        And do not lean on your own understanding.
                        In all your ways acknowledge Him,
                        And He will make your paths straight.
                        Do not be wise in your own eyes;
                        Fear the Lord and turn away from evil.​

                          He said she's in the top 10% of rescues health-wise. She was very timid. She fell asleep at one point because she is just exhausted. She got all of her vaccination and heart-worm prevention. Her weight was 59.2 and he wanted her to fill out a little more. She is petite though.
                          The vet said she won the mega- million jackpot by landing a home with me. He also said she was a beautiful dog.

                            Agree with your vets comment regarding winning the jackpot.
