Beasley is a lovable 2 year-old Irish Setter mix who is ready to find his forever home. He’s a
friendly and affectionate boy who absolutely adores people and gets along wonderfully with
other dogs. Beasley is housebroken and crate trained.

It appears that Beasley did not have the advantage of early training to discourage some
behaviors which are normal for young puppies. He has been receiving that training in his foster
home, and has made major strides in not stealing food and not jumping up to greet people. He
is finding it harder to give up grabbing clothing, but that also is showing continuing
improvement.

Beasley never learned proper leash walking. He is much easier to control on leash using an Easy
Walk harness. He is highly food motivated, which will make continued training for leash walking
(and for anything else you might want) much easier.

Beasley does have a high prey drive, which means he has a strong instinct for chasing small
animals, particularly squirrels, chipmunks and similar animals. Therefore he should not live with
small animals such as hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits or cats. He’s also shown mild resource
guarding over very high-value toys, but doesn’t actually fight over them.

If you’re looking for a sweet, energetic, and eager-to-learn companion, Beasley might be the
perfect fit for your family!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION - 

Paws New England is a foster-based rescue - our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south and New England.  

Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England if necessary.

Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher. We appreciate your understanding that your newly adopted dog will help others in need.
