Founded in 1995 and incorporated in 2001, Irish Setter Rescue of North Texas, Inc. was organized specifically to rescue, shelter, provide medical care, train, and find permanent and loving homes for abandoned, abused or unwanted dogs of the Irish Setter breed in the North Texas area. In addition ISRNTX seeks to educate the public in responsible pet ownership in order to reduce the abuse and neglect of the Irish Setter breed.

     Relying on volunteers dedicated to rescuing Irish Setters in need, ISRNTX assists setters that come from animal shelters, are released by owners who can no longer care for them, or are found lost or abandoned. All dogs that come through the program are spay/neutered, microchipped, receive appropriate vet care, and go into a foster and adoption program where they begin in a loving home and await their forever families. Rescue dogs can make wonderful lifelong companions. If you are thinking about getting an Irish Setter, please consider saving a life by making a rescue dog part of yours.
