Max
Max is 3 years young and ready for his furever home. He came to SWESR because of his love of escaping so he’ll need a home with a secure yard and 6 foot + no climb fencing. Like a typical field ES, we suspect he gets bored outside and mostly wants to be with his people. He loves people, other dogs and has lived with young children. He’s in a foster home in OKC, OK.
Kris
Kris is a 7 1/2 year young handsome boy that was left at a shelter in Oklahoma by his previous owner. He is in a foster home in Edmond, OK.
Storytellers
Kai
In May 2017, SWESR was notified about a 7-year old blind English Setter in an Oklahoma shelter. Kai was rescued quickly and went to a foster home. His foster mother took him to a canine ophthalmology specialist, who diagnosed Kai with a degenerative eye condition called progressive retinal atrophy (PRA). It is not painful, but there is no cure.
Patch
Patch came into our lives at over fourteen years old, a senior dog with a lifetime of hard work behind him. Surrendered to SWESR from a hunting ranch, he had lived in a pen with other dogs without toys or a family to call his own. His health was poor, and his spirit was worn, but Patch yearned for love like no dog we’d ever seen before. His desire for human companionship and love was insatiable.
