Hey ya’ll my name is Nelson and I’m currently hanging out with my foster buddy, Willie. I’m only three years old but life hasn’t been kind to me. Can’t really say how I spent my early years, but the kind person who contacted rescue took me in when my previous owner moved and left me. The Good Sam said I was a good dog but he was also moving and needed to find me a forever home.

I do require a 6′ fence because I cleared his 4.5′ fence easily when I saw something I felt needed to be investigated. I am a typical field English Setter so I will bolt if doors or gates are left open.

I am neutered and fully vaccinated. I am mostly house trained and crate trained too. I like to run around in the yard, but prefer my person stay outside with me. I would really like a home with another friendly dog or a person who is retired or works from home. I am looking for someone who will love me forever and give me the time I need to settle in and feel secure in my home. All this insecurity in my first three years has given me some anxiety which is typical and manageable for an ES in the right home. I do love snuggles, so furniture privileges are a must.

Do you need a friend for life like I do? If so please contact SWESR.
