Who We Are

TarTan Gordon Setter Club, Inc.
Est. 1954

The TarTan Gordon Setter Club is an AKC-licensed organization, established in 1954 for the purpose of preserving and promoting the Gordon Setter through performance and conformation events. Initially, the venues were field trials and a specialty show, but interests have grown to include hunt tests, agility trials, several supported entries, an annual picnic, and annual banquet, and more.

Whether you own a Gordon Setter or not; from non-owners to pet owners, to serious competitors, everyone is welcome to join our club. We have a wonderful group of individuals who love, enjoy and compete in all disciplines and aspects of Gordon Setter ownership. Centered in New England, including New York State, east of the Hudson River, our club offers field trials, hunting tests, specialties, supported entries and social events, including picnics and banquets, where we can enjoy each other’s company and take pleasure in our dogs. We are a cohesive group that takes pride in our reputation for friendliness and hospitality.
