Your search for an English Setter has just ended!!! I am a English Setter/Brittanny cross. The great thing about me is that I have the best qualities of both breeds, at least that is what my foster poppa says. I was an owner surrender because they could no longer care for me but I did get to spend 6 years with them. I sit, lay, know what no means :). I love any and everything I see and meet.

I love my foster brothers and sister and they love me and play with me all the time. They are a crazy bunch and I fit right in with them. I don't bark unless someone comes to the door, which is more than I can say for the other three here. I am now the "official" watch dog and my foster pop says so. I have not had one accident here and I learned the doggie doors as soon as I got here. My foster pop says I should be named "CANDY" cause he keeps saying I am sweeter than candy (but I already knew that). I hate to leave and my foster pop has had a hard time letting me go but he needs to foster another fur baby and so I am now ready to enhance someone else's life as I have done here. I am also UTD on all shots, love to share my food, like cats and little children too. Dad says that is a big "PLUS" (?) for me, what ever that means.

One thing that is so cool here up in the mountains is the fact that I have a three legged friend and since I only have three legs, we really are best friends. He is a little faster than me but that is only because he is bigger and has longer legs. I am faster than one of the other dogs so I can hold my own in the daily races here. Mikey, the big black dog is the "boss" and I respect him and so we get a long super. I know my place in any pack and adjust immediately and all are happy. I will even give them my food if they want it and walk away, cause I know my foster pop will give me more.

I love to be scratched, petted and love to sleep on my own bed. I do pull some on my leash but pops is working on that. I do do very well with a prong collar though. I have to leave like I said earlier but Dad needs to help and foster more fur babies.

Since you have read this far about me I am sure you will agree I am the baby for you. I don't lick but I do get close. Anyway, thanks for stopping by my page and visiting me, Freckles, Daddy's favorite foster baby.

PS. I am the three legged one missing the front leg and my boyfriend Ryan is missing his back leg. What a pair we make.

About Our Rescue Group...

Mission Statement

Above and Beyond English Setter Rescue's goal is rescuing English Setters in need of new homes. While in our care the dogs will be vetted, spayed or neutered, and evaluated in foster homes, where they can learn love and
stability and we can determine which type of home would work best for each dog. Once adopted Above and Beyond volunteers will be available for the dogs and adopters for each dogs life, with advice and support. Our mission is
to put English Setters welfare first and foremost. We are a non-profit, charitable 501(c)(3) organization. 100% of your donation goes to help English Setters in need and is tax deductible.

Each home will be carefully screened to determine whether an English Setter is the correct choice. Home visits will be done as well as reference checks, no dog will be placed before it's time. Every dog rescued by Above and Beyond English Setter rescue will remain in our care until the correct match is found for that dog. English Setters in Above and Beyond's care will never be warehoused. Each dog will live in a home situation (no kennels or living outdoors) as either the ONLY foster dog or one of 2 foster dogs, so a true evaluation of each dog can occur before adoption.

We also will assist shelters housing English Setters by courtesy posting the dogs they have available and if the shelter agrees we will speak to potential adopters about the breed and help with screening.

For more information on our mission, or for assistance, please contact Michael Myers or anyone listed on our Contacts page.

Our Adoption Process...

When an application is submitted, you will receive a phone call and an initial review. The next step is to check your references and then a home visit will be scheduled, if you are approved through each of the prior steps. Every dog in A and B's program is available until an approved adopter speaks for that dog. No one can speak for any dog until they are approved and we do NOT hold dogs for anyone. We have had people who were disappointed that they did not get the dog they initially applied for, but the ones who hung in there with us would not change a thing now that they have their A & B Dog.

Please Note: You must be at least 21 years old to apply to adopt an A&B Setter. Incomplete applications will not be accepted. Signature is implied and assumed on e-mail & online Adoption Applications.

Above & Beyond English Setter Rescue will be raising its adoption fee to $245.00 on all applications received as of April 1st, 2007. We have made every attempt at keeping our adoption fee the lowest we could despite the rising costs associated with spaying and neutering, immunizations and other related routine care. In some instances our adoption fee’s never comes close to the care associated before an adoption of one of our dogs takes place. We do feel however that our adoption fee is still less then if the adopter had to pay these expenses out of their pocket. Also remember we include the first year of complete pet recovery protection for your dog with your adoption fee through Pet Shepherd.

Above and Beyond does have dogs in various areas of the country. Do not be discouraged if you are not in our core areas of PA, NJ, MD, DE, NY.See the link below for more information. Seniors and Special Needs dogs are usually less.
