In 2017, a dog owner did a very responsible thing: she acknowledged she was unable to provide the specific health care her English Setter needed, and she reached out to a friend of hers who was a long time SWESR volunteer for help. This call wasn’t as obvious as it sounds. You see, her dog came from a breeder of bench (show) Setters. Most responsible breeders, this one included, have buyers sign a contract ensuring a dog will be returned to the breeder if the owner is unable to keep them. This dog owner was honest with the breeder that she had contacted SWESR for help with her dog. Several other English Setter owners also contacted the breeder to vouch for SWESR as a reputable and responsible rescue organization that would absolutely ensure the best outcome for this dog. The breeder was persuaded, allowing almost two-year old Riley to come into rescue.
Gary is a very sweet big boy, likely a bench Setter with low prey drive that loves to be with his people, although he gets along fine with other dogs. He was rescued along with many other dogs from a hoarding situation where he lived outside. Gary has learned house manners quickly with guidance and patience from his foster and fur siblings. He enjoys exploring in the yard and has shown no escape tendencies. This big boy is 8-10 years young and is being adopted by his foster family near Denver, CO.
