The printed text on the reverse of this card reads as follows....."Whether accident or design produced the Gordon Setter no one can say.Some attribute the origin to an accidental mating between a black-and-tan Collie and one of the Duke of Gordon's tricolour Setters, others to an Irish Setter and black Pointer cross and the introduction of Bloodhound blood.Whatever produced them, they were bred and fostered at Gordon Castle in the early part of last century and were used entirely as gundogs until late in the same century, when they were first exhibited. Of Scottish origin, the Gordon has not rivalled its Irish and Englísh kin in popularity, probably because its breeders were shooting men who were content to breed dogs merely for their own use. Even to-day the variety is in very few hands in this country. Scandinavian sportsmen, however, are very fond of it, and possess some of the finest Gordon Setters in the world."Please note our policy of FREE Shipping and Insurance worldwide on all orders of $10.00 and above.

There is, however, one theory that an accidental mating between a black-and-tan Collie and a tricolour Setter produced it. Though this variety is not very popular in England, it is more widely kept in Scotland, and is highly regarded in some Scandivavian countries."

At the first British Open Dog Show at Newcastle in 1859, a Gordon Setter was the a first prize-winner; nowadays comparatively few of the breed are exhibited. Its colour, as its original name implies, should be black with rich chestnut markings." Please note our policy of FREE Shipping and Insurance worldwide on all orders of $10.00 and above.
