The setter is 2 and with time, and patience, still has potential. I just don't have the time for him.
The brittany is 6 and has little to no interest in pointing birds.
Both dogs are very sweet and loving. Both are house trained and well socialized with children and other dogs. They would be great for an active family or single person that gets outdoors a lot.
If you're in a spot where you're looking for a possible bird dog and don't have the $ for a dog out of a breeder, they're possible candidates if you have the time to put in them. That, however, is not a guarantee.
