It's easier to put the "whoa" than the "go" into a dog that lacks one or the other. Check out the parents and offspring of the parents' previous litters to see what the breeder is producing. As a novice and wanting a close-working dog, you will be sorry for ten years if you get a "hot" dog and expect it to be easy to train to hunt close. There are close-working English Setters out there. You just have to do your homework.
