My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Drew is looking for a job! Drew is a highly trainable two year old, but has little experience. He has plenty of energy to channel into a task and might well make a good agility dog, running partner, or ??. The following video links show that in a few short lessons, he's learning impulse control, sit-stays at the door and for retrieves and with the handler moving. https://youtu.be/7pkkLmO3aQ0 https://youtu.be/VFzLy1ucD7M https://youtu.be/PpSonuXim5I https://youtu.be/WeWpGRxP8U8

Drew is looking for a home with:
1) a similar-sized playmate that can take a rough & tumble,
2) family without very young children or senior adults who would be injured if he knocked them down ~~he's learning those manners,
3) owner with training experience so that he learns it's not his job to set the household rules.
4) high fencing or a secondary barrier to a 6' fence since his curiosity will take him over a 6' fence when he's bored.

Drew is offered for adoption by Irish Setter Rescue of North Texas. Prospective adopters should be willing to meet him in person prior to adoption.
