Ears.—To be long, set low on the head, and have a medium degree of feathering.
Eyes.—A deep hazel or brown, and the nose dark or mahogany flesh. A black nose should disqualify.
Neck.—Of fair length, slightly arched, and body proportionately long; the chest deep, and ribs well sprung.
Forelegs.—Straight, not too much feathered, and the feet small, firm, and close, with well-arched toes.
Strong Loins, powerful thighs and hocks, and a horizontal carriage of the tail (not cocked) are excellences in this region.
Taken as a whole, the Irish Setter is built more after the type of a racer. Moreover, has a little wider skull than the English variety.
