``John Kerry is an English setter - if he receives new information, he sees no reason he shouldn't take it under consideration. One minute a wild-eyed, drooling, hard-charging English Setter named Bo is ranging far and wide, combing a clearing amid stands of slash pine, red oak, and magnolia trees; the next he is frozen in space, his nose trained on a clump of brush about 15 yards away. Now, owners need not guess and can say with certainty, 'The Canine Heritage[TM] test showed that my dog is a mix of Labrador Retriever, English Setter and Border Collie'. |
