Story
Max is a three year old tri-color neutered male ES.  He belonged to one owner since he was an 8 week old puppy.  He mostly lived outside and liked to go on adventures with his female littermate.  She was the likely ringleader in the breakouts from the fence and led the pair on jaunts around the neighborhood.  Because of his love of escaping he’ll need a home with a secure yard and 6 foot + no climb fencing. Max is a pretty low key guy who is happy outside or inside.  He does not seem to have a significant drive to hunt and seems to prefer sunbathing in the yard and curling up on the sofa.   Max is in a foster home with other Setter boys and gets along well with them.  He has also met a much smaller female dog that he likes and once he got over his incredulity at his size, he also likes a very large Bernese mix.  Max has not been tested with cats, but does not seem to have a massive prey drive.   Max is a bit of a resource guarder with his people and while he is getting attention curled up on the sofa, he warns other dogs to stay away.  He does not seem to do this outside or when he is in his crate.  He is fed in his crate so there is no conflict with his foster siblings.  Max is not a big barker but he does like to get up and go outside in the morning, then come in for breakfast soon after.  He will bark in his crate until he gets what he wants in the mornings.  He likes his routines.   Max is fairly gentle on leash though he gets most of his exercise in the backyard with foster siblings, not on regular walks.  He would enjoy regular walks with his person.  He also loves to ride in the car and jumps right in and settles in for the ride.  Max is working on his house training and is not 100% on providing cues to go outside yet but he’s working on it.  The yard at his foster home has a 6 foot stockade fence and he has never tried to dig or climb out.   Max is on the small side even for a field setter and currently weighs 42 pounds.  He has a very sweet and gentle nature and is loved by anyone that meets him. He is up to date on all vaccinations and is microchipped. Max is in a foster home in OKC, Ok.     November 2, 2024, 12:58 pm

Story
Hey ya’ll my name is Nelson and I’m currently hanging out with my foster buddy, Willie. I’m only three years old but life hasn’t been kind to me. Can’t really say how I spent my early years, but the kind person who contacted rescue took me in when my previous owner moved and left me. The Good Sam said I was a good dog but he was also moving and needed to find me a forever home. I do require a 6′ fence because I cleared his 4.5′ fence easily when I saw something I felt needed to be investigated. I am a typical field English Setter so I will bolt if doors or gates are left open.  I am neutered and fully vaccinated. I am mostly house trained and crate trained too. I like to run around in the yard, but prefer my person stay outside with me. I would really like a home with another friendly dog or a person who is retired or works from home. I am looking for someone who will love me forever and give me the time I need to settle in and feel secure in my home. All this insecurity in my first three years has given me some anxiety which is typical and manageable for an ES in the right home. I do love snuggles, so furniture privileges are a must. Do you need a friend for life like I do? If so please contact SWESR.  April 4, 2025, 7:03 am

Story
This stunning 5-year-old Orange Belton English Setter is ready to find a family that understands him. He’s a big boy at about 70 lbs and while we know he is an English Setter, we can only speculate about his bloodlines because of his larger size. Augie is a smart, independent, treat-motivated boy who picks up on training quickly. But he’ll need an adopter with expertise and patience to help him build confidence, especially in new situations. Here’s what makes Augie special:  Low prey drive – no lizard or squirrel-chasing chaos here!  Companions  – he is ok with the company of female dogs his size but honestly people are his favorite, and he doesn’t need another dog in his forever home.  Yard enthusiast – a good-sized, securely fenced yard (6’ fencing) is important for his playtime.  Timid but willing – he may start off a little nervous, but with time, he’ll blossom into a devoted companion. Augie is searching for a kind and experienced adopter who will guide him with love, consistency, and patience. Because of his size and enthusiasm for his people, he’s looking for a home without children or older folks who might be accidentally knocked about by his affectionate nature. Could that be you? Apply today and give this sweet boy the home he’s been waiting for!  April 13, 2025, 7:35 pm
