Are English Setters Prone to Health Issues?
English Setters are generally healthy dogs, but like all breeds, they can be prone to certain health conditions. Some common issues to watch for include hip dysplasia, ear infections due to their floppy ears, and autoimmune diseases. Regular vet check-ups are essential for catching these issues early.
While not all English Setters will experience these health problems, it’s important to be aware and take preventative steps such as maintaining a healthy diet, providing enough exercise, and keeping their ears clean and dry. Responsible breeding practices can also reduce the risk of inherited diseases, so choosing a reputable breeder is key.
