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.

Misty
Misty’s story is one of love, resilience, and the unbreakable bond between a family and their dog. It all began when Misty, a sweet little English Setter puppy who happened to be born deaf, was surrendered by her original owners when she was 3 1/2 months old. They didn’t want her because they felt that she would be unable to hunt due to her inability to hear.
Fate had better plans for Misty. She found her way into the loving care of her Southwest English Setter Rescue (SWESR) foster mom, Sherry. Sherry is a kind and caring woman with a heart of gold who would train and care for Misty until she could find her forever family.
Kris
In late November 2023 Kris came into rescue as one of three English Setters owner surrendered to an Oklahoma municipal shelter. This particular shelter works with SWESR volunteers, and they called an experienced SWESR foster, Deb, to pick up the dogs.
All three dogs were in rough shape. They were underweight. Their skin was terrible, and Deb knew they would never be adopted looking as bad as they did. The plan was for the dogs to be boarded, as there were no available foster homes with immediate openings for three pups.
