Llewellin Setter Dog Breed Image

Llewellin Setter

There are two basic types of English Setter ' bench setters which are bred for show rings, and field setters which are bred for hunting and field trial activities. Llewellin Setters are a particular strain of field setter which can trace undiluted ancestry back to the late 1800's kennel of an English nobleman named Richard Purcell Llewellin (1840-1925). Prior to that time in England, english setters were not a well standardized breed. They had for centuries been bred up from spaniel stock and could have best been described at that time as a loose collection of similar types of dogs. The first serious recorded effort to standardize a hunting english setter was undertaken in the mid-1800's by Edward Laverack (1800-1877). He had only mixed success in developing a quality hunting dog, but did succeed in developing a distinct line of dogs which are considered the progenitors of modern bench English Setters.
