Care Tips for Gordon Setters

1

Ensure regular exercise: Gordon Setters are active and energetic dogs that require daily physical activity, such as long walks, runs, or playtime, to maintain their health and prevent boredom.

2

Grooming routine: Regular grooming, including brushing their thick, silky coat several times a week, helps prevent matting and reduces shedding. Pay special attention to cleaning their ears and trimming their nails.

3

Consistent training and socialization: Begin obedience training and socialization early to address their strong-willed nature. Positive reinforcement techniques work well to encourage good behavior and adaptability in various environments.
