Their sisters trained dogs (5,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

irish setters

'dogs' is the definition.
(Irish setter is an example)

'their sisters trained' is the wordplay.
'trained' indicates an anagram (train can mean to shape or manipulate).
'their'+'sisters'='theirsisters'
'theirsisters' with letters rearranged gives 'IRISH SETTERS'.

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
