GORDON SETTER

Color: Red and black, with rich dark mahogany markings. The tan should

appear on lips, cheeks, throat, spots over the eyes, underside of ears,

front of chest, and the lower part of both fore and hind legs.

Height: 25 in.

Weight: 70 lbs.

In general appearance this is a well built and elegant dog, heavier than

the English setter. His head too is much heavier in construction. The

occiput is well developed, eyes lustrous, intelligent and full, ears set

on low and close to the upper neck. Neck should be fairly long and not

throaty, tail rather short and scimitar-like and nicely feathered. The

coat is straight or slightly waved, not curly and not so fine as that of

the English Setter.
