Default DH dogs

I realize normal DH engraving had a setter on one side and a pointer on the other . However has anyone seen a DH that had a setter on both sides or a DH that had a pointer on both sides ?

I haven't, but you would be most apt to see that on the earliest DH's that had three dogs, one of which was engraved on the floor plate.

What I meant was same breed on right and left . I would assume you could have asked for that or would that only have happened by mistake ?

2 setters would definitely be more valuable than 2 pointers..
