    My English Setter Sonny

    This is Sonny, and English Setter that ended up in rescue. He is not socialized and has lived his whole life outdoors. We have only had him for a week, but he is making some slow progress and get better each day with his timidness and leash walking

    Welcome to the forum Debbie. Sonny is a very handsome young man and I'm sure it won't be long before he learns the delights of the great indoors!

    He is so beautiful I now want an English setter! He certainly seems to have made himself at home, and I am sure he'll soon grow in confidence.

    Yes, seems a lot of my friends now want one after seeing Sonny, they are a beautiful breed. Sonny is a "Project" getting an 8 yr old dog adjusted to indoor life is not an easy task. He requires a lot of understanding and patience, but he is a real sweet heart

    I am sure many people would hesitate to take on an eight year old unsocialized dog - I am so glad you have given him a chance. All the ones I have met have had lovely natures, and I'm sure he'll respond well to your understanding and patience.

    and Tweed too.
    Welcome Debbie. Gundogs were bred to be adaptable - it may take a little time, but I'm sure he will bond, and reward you with love. Best wishes to you and your special boy.[/w]

    I hope so Janet, I just love him to pieces timidness and all. It would be great if I could bring him out of his shell, but I will take whatever he wants to give. He is special and deserves to be loved for who he is

    Thank you, I have never adopted an older dog (age 8) before, I hope he is still able to come out of his shell at this later stage in his life.
