Chapter 4:
Temperament of the Irish Red and White Setter
It must be emphasized that these Setters are highly intelligent members of the canine species. Not only have they consistently demonstrated an understanding for a sizable vocabulary, but it is common for Red and Whites to master such tasks as opening a crate from the inside as well as from the outside, as well as a refrigerator, gate, or door. With its inherent curiosity and intelligence, this is a dog that can get into mischief if allowed to do so. And although such skills around the house are not always appreciated by owners, these dogs excel at Obedience, Agility, and field work. Besides, Red and Whites are excellent family dogs; they make grand companions for children because they are trustworthy and loving, yet also energetic and playful.
The Red and White credo appers to be that "every day is a day to be enjoyed." As is true with many among the other setter breeds, this dog flourishes as a house dog and does not take well to kennel life. They are happiest when they can build rapport with family members, and although they are alert to the arrival of strangers, they tend to be receptive to a wide variety of people, (so are not good guard dogs.)
