About Solo

Meet Solo, a delightful field English Setter puppy born on September 1, 2026. Solo's name reflects his unique start, as he was the only puppy in his litter. Raised indoors by a caring breeder, he received the love and socialization that every puppy deserves. Unfortunately, Solo was born deaf, making traditional training for field trials impractical. His breeder's goal changed to finding him a nurturing family through SWESR, where his special needs will be met. Despite his hearing challenges, Solo embodies the spirited personality typical of his breed. He’s playful, energetic, and eager to explore, ready to bring joy to your home. His forever family should be prepared for standard puppy antics and a love for chewing, as he's in a prime phase for discovery. Solo currently resides in Frisco, Texas, and to adopt him, you’ll need to travel to Texas. He can fly with you in the cabin, given his small size, but this option is time-sensitive as he is growing quickly. An ideal home for Solo will have experience with active breeds and a securely fenced yard for him to investigate and play. He’s eager to learn hand signals and form a close bond with his new family. He is up to date on vaccinations and will be placed with a neutering contract to be fulfilled as he matures. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
