English Setter Association Welfare Claimed

In 1987 when English Setters were extremely popular the English Setter Association founded a RESCUE that dealt with those unfortunate dogs that needed help. The ESA no longer is associated with that rescue and the committee felt that it is important for the benefit of our breed to have available experts to guide new owners and to advise those who feel out of their depth.

ESAW is will be overseen by up to 7 trustees three of which will always be the Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer of the English Setter Association. We can offer advice and help with welfare issues and essentially the ‘RESCUE’ of English Setters and their owners.

It will primarily facilitate the safe rehoming of English Setters under the guidance of Fran Grimsdell who is the Co-ordinator of ESAW. Fran has many years of experience in this field and has a team of Area Reps who are all members of the ESA. Everyone associated with ESAW will have many years’ experience of owning English Setters.
