About this shelter

Save Our Setters, Inc. (Illinois Branch Office) in Galesburg, IL

Save Our Setters, Inc. (Illinois Branch Office) operates as an animal shelter in Galesburg, Illinois, located in Knox County, about 40 miles north of Davenport, Iowa, and works alongside three other animal shelters or rescues in the county. The organization specializes in rescuing Irish, Gordon, and Irish Red & White Setters, helping place displaced dogs into foster and adoptive homes through a network of volunteers and transporters. It relies entirely on donations and fundraising to support its programs, receiving no state or federal funding and no support from the Irish Setter Club of America Rescue Fund or other breed club funding. Adopters and fosters must complete an application, and owners surrendering a Setter are asked to provide photos, pedigree, vet records, and registration papers when available.
