Taco is a sweet, young Setter estimated to be less than 2 years old. Taco was abandoned from a hunting ranch in Idaho. He is affectionate with people and would be good in a family with children older than 5 years old. Taco loves to play and would be best in a home with another younger dog who shares the same joy of shared tug toys and active play. Since Taco shows some separation anxiety, having another dog(s) or human available for much of the day would be ideal. Taco gets along well with other dogs. Cats are unknown. Taco would enjoy a medium-to-large yard to burn off his energy with a 4–5-foot fence to ensure his safety. Typical of most setters, Taco is quiet in the house and active outside of the house. He is now house trained and has learned some house manners and basic commands. He is still working on his commands as he came into rescue with no training of any kind. As Taco was placed in a crate and dumped in one, we have not worked on crate training with him. He does roam the house and yard unattended with two other male dogs without issues of damage to any type of property. Currently Taco is fed several feet away from the other dogs in the house as he was resource guarding upon entry into a home. This behavior has improved vastly with consistent feeding times and food amounts. Taco rides perfectly in a car and will need additional leash training as he tends to pull a bit with a simple harness. Burning off energy in the yard and hunting rodents is his favorite activity of all. Taco came to rescue with what was assumed to be an injured left foot. Upon further investigation, Taco was found to have Valley Fever with bone infection only. He is on an antifungal treatment and is much improved after a short time on the therapy. To date Taco is up to date on vaccines and tests. He will need to continue antifungal treatment for several months and be retested. If he is adopted before he tests negative, SWESR will cover medications and tests. Taco’s neuter will be done (and paid for by SWESR) when a DVM is comfortable proceeding knowing he’s being treated for Valley Fever, he’s not in a state where there is experience treating VF and it’s impressive the DVM recommended testing for VF. Taco takes his medication twice a day without hesitation like a true champ. Taco Dogler is waiting for his forever home where he can shower his human pack with love and companionship. Are you ready for a sweet boy with nothing but love in his heart?
