Temperamento

Irish Red Setters are known for their friendly and outgoing nature, making them wonderful family pets. They are energetic and require regular exercise, thriving in active environments where they can run and play. Their affectionate demeanor means they bond closely with their families, and they are often great with children and other pets. However, their intelligence also means they need mental stimulation to prevent boredom.

Consideraciones de Salud

The Irish Red Setter is generally a healthy breed with a lifespan of 12-15 years. However, they are prone to certain genetic health conditions. Common issues include hip dysplasia, which can cause joint pain and mobility problems, and progressive retinal atrophy (PRA), a degenerative eye disorder that can lead to blindness. Bloat, or gastric torsion, is another potential concern due to their deep chest. Regular health screenings, such as hip evaluations and eye exams, are essential to catch issues early. Preventive care, including a balanced diet, proper exercise, and routine veterinary check-ups, plays a crucial role in maintaining their health. Vaccinations, parasite control, and dental care should also be part of their routine care to support their overall well-being.
