Augustus (Augie)

Meet Handsome Augustus (Augie) – A playful, sweet and affectionate boy looking for His Forever Home! <br/><br/>This stunning 6-year-old Orange Belton English Setter is ready to find a family that will love and appreciate him. He’s a big boy at about 70 lbs that walks well on a leash, which is quite an accomplishment for an ES. While we know he is an English Setter, we can only speculate about his bloodlines because of his larger size, possibly Ryman? Augie is a smart, independent, treat-motivated boy who picks up on training quickly. <br/><br/>Augie is ok with the company of female dogs his size but honestly people are his favorite, and he doesn’t need another dog in his forever home. No cats please. A medium sized fenced yard that is interesting to patrol for bugs, butterflies, squirrels, birds, etc would suit Augie just fine.<br/><br/>Angie’s favorite toy is a nyalabone. He didn’t know what to do with toys when he first arrived in his SWESR foster home and it’s been a joy to watch him learn to have fun playing with toys. He’ll play tug with his person or toss and play with a toy by himself.<br/><br/>Augie came from an environment where he was living outside and was pretty much neglected. He’s come so far in rescue and now he’s a family dog. His foster Mom has professional grooming skills and he’s such a good boy on the grooming table; the only thing is the electric clippers are still somewhat scary so she is going slow. He’s come so far and the sky is the limit for this dear boy.<br/><br/>In foster care Augie has blossomed into a devoted companion. He loves cuddling, hugging and tummy rubs. Like a true ES, counter surfing is a favorite pastime, but he’s trying very hard to learn his manners and boundaries. <br/><br/>Augie is searching for a kind person who will guide him with love, consistency, and patience. Because of his size and enthusiasm for his people, he’s looking for a home without children (12 and under) or older folks who might be accidentally knocked about by his affectionate nature. Could that be you?<br/><br/>Augie is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines and tests.
