A Good Samaritan in the neighborhood took care of Nelson for several months, but was moving and was unable to take Nelson with him. ortunately, he contacted SWESR, who were able to place Nelson in a loving foster home, where he is now.

Zeus – Courtesy Post

Zeus is a 6 year young English Setter/Tree Walker Coonhound blend that finds himself in urgent need of a foster hero; ideally not too far from the Southern California area if possible. He was rescued from a high kill shelter in Texas with his sister at 11 weeks old. The shelter did not share the potential issues with litter-mate syndrome with the adopters and it is applicable to this duo to the extent that Zeus will be better in a different home than his sister.
