Urgent ***home needed for setter in Ireland

[Caroline Black]

Hi all,

My friends mother in law has had a setter in less than ideal conditions.....on a chain outside, few walks, left outside. She is not a cruel person but we all know how much setters need their exercise and time with family. Well now she has decided to give him to the pound in a few days. I have been going over and over it in my head, i would love to be able to take him, but we have already have a setter, who because we only have a small garden need to give him loadsa exercise every day to keep him happy. Plus we just don't have the money to take on another one. I am heartbroken. Can anybody help? The dog is based in Co. Armagh....PLEASE PLEASE if anyone is interested in taking him on please let me know asap.

You must contact Dorothy Park she looks after Setter rescue in Ireland and you should also try to find out who bred the dogafter

I should have said Dorothy has a web page Lestannons and Ladysdale Setters. If you google you will get contact details

Hi Caroline, Is it a dog or bitch? How old?
Don't let her give the dog to the Pound. This week we have a full week of Shows and I know that Dorothy is attending them.
I will be coming home after the Show tomorrow and could collect the dog on Monday.
My phone number is 003531 8341537 or 0035386 8322577. I will be here all evening.

Thank goodness this post was breaking my heart and I am so pleased that this setter will be not going to the pound! Hope all gets sorted

Please keep us all posted on this dogs outcome.......I do hope you get him Trudy! x

[Trudy Walsh]

I have arranged to collect the dog on Monday. Hopefully all will go well.

Thank you, Trudy and Caroline. I know it is not easy taking in an extra dog to your own even if he is meant for re-homing. Neither is it easy for the dog concerned, but fortunately they tend to adapt well when re-homed with considerate new owners.
Wishing all a happy outcome!
