There are few things this writer enjoys more than a really good mystery: a whodunnit, a whydunnit, and a howdunnit. But I’ve come across a mystery I can’t solve, and I, on behalf of SWESR, need your help to get it resolved.
Why hasn’t Sampson found his forever home yet?
SWESR Tammy spent the first 9 months of her life living in a setting created by one of the worst sorts of human anyone involved in dog rescue can imagine. Her owner was a puppy miller who sold dogs to wholesalers. When the wholesaler stopped buying his puppies, the owner simply hoarded them. Nine of his dogs were rescued in 2019 and became known as the Junction 9. Horrifically, this reprehensible man continued to hoard dogs, and in 2020 seventeen more Setters were rescued from him (the Junction Jazz), then six more in 2021. Tammy was a part of the Junction 9.
Gus is approximately 10 years young and he was a stray in a Utah shelter in a very neglected state. A good Sam got him groomed and all the mats removed. SWESR pulled him and he had an extensive dental with 9 extractions. This sweet, lovable, good with other dogs, senior boy is being adopted by his foster mom in Henderson, NV.

Barbara Woof-Woof Interviews SWESR Luna, Field Setter, who is looking for her forever home.
BWW: Luna, thanks for sitting down with us today so your public can get to know you better. You sit so beautifully!
Luna: Thank you, Barbara, yes, I do very well with Sit and Stay commands. I’m also house-trained and am not a picky eater.
BWW: You do look slightly … Rubenesque.
Luna: I am a full-figured, 6-year-old female. I celebrate my curves, but if my veterinarian really thinks I should become more svelte, I’m happy to go on long walks or run around a backyard to get my exercise. I also adore my plush toys, and it’s such fun when I discover one of them has a squeaker!
Bizzie is 8 years young and 42 lbs. She was rescued from a hunting ranch in TX. She didn’t acknowledge her name and she is one of the most active middle-aged ES girls her foster Mom has fostered, thus the name Bizzie. She’s pretty good with other dogs, but on her terms and space. She likes to sniff one cat and gives the other cat that is dominant with dogs the respect she demands. She’s affectionate with people and melts into you for hugs. She’ll need very secure fencing (4 foot probably ok) and a Setter interesting medium or large yard.
Taco Dogler is one lucky ES youngster! A Good Sam in Idaho found him with a crushed crate on the roadside. An ES rescuer coordinated him going to a foster home in MT. He is good with people and other dogs.
