If you are considering adopting an English Setter rescue dog, click here to see all dogs currently available and consider submitting an application.
Here are some of our most recent rescues:
Forrest
This stunning 6 year old boy was surrendered to SWESR because his family wasn’t able to give him what an active field ES needs daily, lots of exercise. He is in a foster home in San Antonio, TX.
Libby
Libby is almost 3 years young and a beautiful girl. She would do best as an only dog. She needs a secure 6′ fenced yard. She has a high prey drive so no cats. Libby is very affectionate and adores her people. She is in a home near Denver, CO.
Eddie and Samson – Courtesy Post
This is a courtesy post. SWESR is helping this family gather information and look for a new home for their bonded pair of dogs. You’ll submit a SWESR application that we will pass on to the owner. The adoption fee will be up to the current owners. Eddie and Samson are a nearly 5 year old pair of boy/girl littermates who are located in Utah.
