My story

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

Socialization/training: Dallas loves everyone she meets! Dallas is still learning about house manners. Counter surfing is still a work in progress but does well with housebreaking.



Crate trained:  Yes.



Leash trained: Yes but she pulls. She needs a harness for walks to reduce pulling.



Activity Level:  She loves to explore the yard. She is easily excited but loves to cuddle with her humans!



Fence:  She will need a fenced yard, please. Dallas is a retired field trial girl. She loves to look for birds and gets very excited over new things. Her favorite thing to do is lay outside in the sun. No dog parks. No invisible fence. 



Behavior:  Dallas is an independent thinker! She is active and loves new adventures and cuddle time! She loves her people and giving hugs.



Medical History:  Dallas is microchipped, spayed, up to date on vaccines, and on monthly heartworm prevention. She has focal seizures for which she is on medication (Keppra ES). She has adjusted well to the medication and there have been no breakthrough seizures since being on the medication.



Foster Comments: Dallas is the sweetest girl! She is quiet and if there is another dog in her forever home, she would do best with one other older dog, as she doesn’t want anyone jumping in her face. With her focal seizures, she does best in a quiet environment that is consistent with a schedule. Changes tend to cause breakthrough seizure activity.



Foster Location:  Perry, GA



Volunteer transport can be arranged in the Continental US within a 1,000-mile distance between adopters & foster home. If interstate transport is provided for your adopted dog, there will be an additional charge of $75.00 for the required Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI).  Typically, we are able to transport your adopted dog to within 2 hours of your home. *Dogs can be adopted outside the 1000-mile transport distance; however, adopters must be willing to either fly their adopted dog, drive to a location within the 1000-mile transport range, or make independent transport arrangements for their adopted dog. Transports to far Western states, from Eastern states, may have additional restrictions.

Additional adoption info

Application process:
1. Submit on-line application
2. Vet references checked
3. Interview call
4. Home visit (virtual)
An applicant is not guaranteed the dog they apply for.
Applicants must complete the application process before speaking with foster homes.
We do NOT hold dogs for anyone. We have had people who were disappointed that they did not get the dog they initially applied for, but the ones who hung in there with us would not change a thing now that they have their A & B Dog.

Please Note:
1:You must be at least 21 years old to apply to adopt an A&B Setter.
2: Incomplete applications will not be accepted.
3: Proof of heartworm preventative and testing is REQUIRED (via vet records or receipts) for current dogs and recently passed dogs.
4: Signature is implied and assumed on e-mail & online Adoption Applications.

Above & Beyond English Setter Rescue's adoption fee is
$450.00 for puppies and dogs under one year.
$400.00 for dogs one up to three years
$350.00 for dogs three to six years
$250.00 for dogs seven to ten years
Reduced fee on a sliding scale for dogs 11 years and older.

We have made every attempt at keeping our adoption fee the lowest we could despite the rising costs associated with spaying and neutering, immunizations, and other related routine care. In most instances our adoption fee never comes close to the care associated before an adoption of one of our dogs takes place. We do feel however that our adoption fee is still less then if the adopter had to pay these expenses out of their pocket. In most cases volunteer transport is available for your adopted dog up to 1000 miles and within 2 hours of your home.

More about this rescue

Mission Statement

Above and Beyond English Setter Rescue's goal is rescuing English Setters in need of new homes. While in our care the dogs will be vetted, spayed or neutered, and evaluated in foster homes, where they can learn love and stability and we can determine which type of home would work best for each dog.

Once adopted, Above and Beyond volunteers will be available for the dogs and adopters for each dog's life, with advice and support. Our mission is to put the dog's welfare above all else.

We are a non-profit, charitable 501(c)(3) organization. 100% of your donation goes to help English Setters in need and is tax deductible.

For more information on our mission, or for assistance, please contact us.
