Story:

We were contacted by a volunteer from the Fayetteville Animal Shelter requesting help in finding this dog a permanent home.

Mario is a wonderful young English Setter approx. 8 months old. He is happy, playful and energetic, he loves to play with other dogs. A wonderful couple has sponsored his adoption fee, so now all he needs is a loving family to give him a good forever home. Mario is being housed in a kill shelter and his time is limited.  Please don't wait if you want to help save this beautiful boy!

For more info on Mario, please call 479-444-3456.

 

Owners Comments:

Before adoption, Mario will be neutered, have Heartworm Testing done, Rabies and Annual Vaccinations as well as microchipped. He will also have a bag of dog food sent home with him.  

 

Personality:

Playful and Energetic like a young Setter should be, all he needs is a wonderful home to teach him about all the good things in life and show him that there is more to life than the inside of a kennel.

 

Training:

He is at the perfect age for obedience and field training.

These are stories of Setters that have come through our Setter Rescue Network
and they are currently living in the homes of Setter Lovers!

Chief_3.jpg

April 2011:

Chief was adopted by an airline pilot / flight instructor and his family near Atlanta GA so he was relocated from Smithsburg MD.  The two families met half way near the NC border to make the transfer. The latest reports are that Chief's original family was thrilled to find such a wonderful new home for him and they've heard he is doing well and being introduced to everyone in his new family.  Another Llew Rescue Success Story!

February 2011:

Frankie was adopted by a family that only lived hours away from where he was after finding him featured on our website. It's amazing how things work out. He is now living happily with with his new family and has another setter for a playmate.

February 2011:

Colby was adopted by a wonderful man that has always had white/black Llewellin Setters. He fell in love with Colby at first sight and had to have him.  Colby was relocated from southern to northern California, so he was lucky he only had to travel within his state.  He now lives on a vast acreage with lots of room to run and goes for daily rides in a ATV around his huge yard.

James

November 2010:

James is an awfully LUCKY dog.  He hit the jackpot in finding his final and "furever" home.  He now lives with a retired couple near the Kansas City, KS area and he plays ball, goes on daily walks, and for truck rides frequently.  He is a wonderful companion and a complete blessing to these folks and since he's an only dog in their household he can steal all their attention. They fell in love with him even before they came to pick him up. It is truly a match made in heaven!!

September 2010:

Rugby successfully made the journey from Fayetteville Arkansas to Juda Wisconsin where he is now part of a Tri-Llew family! His new Llew sister is Hayden from our "H" litter and he will have a big brother Llew too named Spirit. So far the reports are good. He's been introduced to his new siblings and is getting along great.  His new family thinks he is a really good fit and they look forward to having Rugby as part of their active family.

July 2010:

Pepper is now in a new furever home. Her owner placed her locally with a wonderful family where she will now get the exercise, love and attention she so rightly deserves!

July 2010:

Lucy Lou Birddog also had no trouble in finding a wonderful new forever home rather quickly. She has been relocated from Oshkosh Wisconsin to Marble Rock Iowa. Her new owner called us the day they got her home to say how thrilled they are with her and that our description of her on this web page was very accurate. They also thanked us for creating the Setter Rescue Network, for all we do and for bringing such a magnificent dog into their lives.

Hobbs

June 2010:

Not long after we posted Hobbs' story on our website, his owner found him a wonderful new home locally in Wisconsin. Hobbs, a 1/2 Llewellin Setter and 1/2 Large Munsterlander dog, now lives with a young man who likes to hunt and owns lots of land for him to run.

Buck

May 2010:

Buck was spoken for in less than 24 hours after his story was posted on this web page. He was placed in a "furever" home, relocating to Muscatine Iowa from Atlanta Georgia. His new family, which includes two young boys, states that in only a few short weeks he has become their "dream dog" and they can't imagine life without him. They now call him Jake.

Kachina

March 2008:

Kachina was originally purchased as a puppy by a family that does not hunt, but wanted an active dog for outdoor activities. Kachina (our dog Bristol's full blooded sister) proved to be more than the family could handle so she was rehomed from Illinois into a furever setter loving family living in Kentucky. Katie, as she is now called, will have the opportunity to hunt and have another Llewellin family companion to play with.
