DING! DING! DING! We have a winner!!
I will leave it up for a day or so in case anyone else wants to play but I have my 10 point 5 star winnah! 
Whoops… spoke too soon… I re-read the answers and there was one wrong… so keep trying y’all…
Several of you are coming close but are missing a question or 2.
BTW… the Llewelyn (notr sure of the spelling) is an off-shoot of the English Setter, used for field purposes… not a seperate breed!
and… I am the Queen of Typos… yes, it’s NOME AK, not NONE LOL.
STILL no winner!
I’ll give a hint- it’s #3 that most everyone is missing.
