Chip's Story

Breed: English setter<br/>Sex: Male, neutered<br/>Age: ~5 years<br/>Weight: 48lbs- needs more groceries!<br/>Location: FL<br/>Good with Dogs: yes<br/>Good with Cats: no<br/>Good with Kids- yes (but probably best with older kids!)<br/>Crate trained- yes<br/>Housebroken- yes<br/>Health- Great, just a picky eater<br/><br/>Meet the sweetest setter you will ever come across, Chip! Chip found himself lost at animal control, and despite his owners promising to come, they never returned for him. However, that irresistible half mask and those loving eyes don’t lie- he has taken everything in stride and doesn’t seem to let anything impact his love for humans and for other dogs. Baths, blow dries, nail trims, car rides, vet appointments- if there’s a person involved, he loves it! He has never met a human he hasn’t wanted to immediately hug, and his tail never stops wagging! Chip does great with kids, but does get very excited and occasionally jumps for his “hugs”, so may do better with older children until he has more time to work on his introduction manners. Luckily, this people pleasing pup learns quick as can be, house trained, crate trained, knowing sit, wait, “okay”, shake, walking well on a leash, and having his daily routine down to a tee. <br/><br/>Chip has thrived in his foster home with 5 other dogs ranging from 18-45lbs, with his favorite being playtime and chasing birds with the other setter at home! Unfortunately, Chip does get a little too excited about cats, and would do best in a cat-free home. He is crate trained and does well in his crate, although he has never appeared to show interest in even dog toys, so he would likely be a good candidate to graduate from this in his forever home! This boy definitely needs to put on a few more pounds, and is a little bit of a picky eater- but vet visits have shown no abnormalities and this has been improving in his foster home!<br/><br/>Chip would thrive in an active home that would take him on plenty of walks and outings- he’s always the first one waiting to jump into the car! But he also loves a good snuggle on the couch! It would definitely be important to continue working on manners, since he is such an excited boy, but as long as his family is involved, he is happy to learn! Do you think Chip could be the one for you?

A Better English Setter Rescue's Adoption Policy
We are a national breed rescue group and our process is designed to make sure we are very careful in the placement of all of our rescue dogs. Here's the link to our online adoption application in case you haven't already started. https://www.abetteresetter.org/adopt There is no cost or obligation for completing the application. Within a few days you'll receive a phone call from one of our volunteers to discuss your application. We do check vet references and conduct home visits. If you haven't been through a breed rescue adoption process, it may seem lengthy at first but it is just intended to make sure each individual/family adopts the right dog for your family and home. In our rescue they are fostered in a home and our intention is that they are never abandoned or let down again.
