I bathe my setters every other week. Also I use a steel comb on thier coats. Never a brush because it breaks and pulls the hair out.

I have had a gordon for 13 years. I rinse him when he feels dirty,maybe every few weeks,and rarely use soap. He gets brushed when I feel any tangles or matting starting,especially beneath his ears and his elbow pads.
I just got an English and he smells fresh and clean. I will bathe him when that changes. He came with the English Setter hairdo,but I will let it grow out and see which I prefer. I rarely trimmed the gordon except his ears when they dragged the ground.
