After fifty some years of Irish Setters, English Setters, and English Pointers, I was adopted by a German Wirehair. Eva is gone now, but I'm looking for another Wirehair. I'm not trying to convert anyone, because I don't hunt much any more, but for me the Wirehair has it all.

We have had GSPs in my family since before I was born, so I'm a little prejudiced.
We have had some extremely good ones.
That said, I have friends who run Setters, and love em. Gotta spend some time around both, and see which one grabs you.

I've a owned and hunted over French Brittanies for over 30 years and for my kind of hunting they are perfect. Handle the heat and terrain in Arizona/New Mexico and can hunt big on the plains of Montana, Kansas and South Dakota. 90% of the time I hunt it is with my brother, he used to be a Brittany Man. But 6 years ago I bought him a Braque France and what a DOG! Her and my Brit as a pair are hard to beat!! If something would happen to my Brit I'm not sure the new pup wouldn't be a France.
