Gulliver became an ACES dog this past March. It was obvious at first glance that this sweet boy was lame and seemed to be in pain. We acted quickly to get him vetted and we discovered that he needed a total hip replacement. The costs to help this loving boy have exceeded $5,000; continued therapy and ongoing care will bring the costs even higher.

Please join us in welcoming Patty Thompson to the ACES Board of Directors! Patty will continue to lead ACES fundraising efforts, including the ACES annual reunion, the ACES calendar, the holiday gift campaign, and local fundraising events.
Thanks to you, this holiday season was a special one for ACES foster setters. Many of you participated in our "Give a Setter a Lift" holiday gift campaign and bought a "gift" for a homeless English Setter.
With the fall and winter holidays just around the corner, we thought it might be fun to see how our pups enjoy the holidays.
Please share photos of your setters dressed up for Halloween, stuffing themselves with turkey or enjoying the fall weather.
This holiday season, please consider putting a gift under the tree for a dog you may never meet. If you are looking to give a gift that will count, think of ACES and our foster setters. Each and every dollar makes a difference for English Setters in need.
Volunteers and ACES four-legged ambassadors attended a pet rescue fundraising event at Braxton's Pet Supply in Wayne, PA this past September. Two raffle items and the sales of donated items (many handmade) brought in $150. What a great way to meet people interested in helping and learning about English Setters.
The day couldn't have been better, the people couldn't have been nicer, and the setters couldn't have been happier! On August 9, ACES adopters, foster parents and their setters came together from as far as 17 hours away to join in the fun at the E.P. "Tom" Sawyer State Park in Louisville, KY.
? - June 30, 2008Kerby became a part of the ACES family on June 10, 2005, when he was nine years old. We don't know how he spent most of his life, but we do know that during his last three years, Kerby was surrounded by people who loved him, near and far.
Our dear Jackson needs your help. Jack, as he is fondly known, is a senior ACES foster dog. As an older setter, Jack has seen his fair share of the vet's office, but he has not had any major problems...until now. Jack has developed a large fatty cyst around his front leg, where his elbow meets his chest.
ACES has a new look! We're very excited about the ACES website and would like to share some of the new features with you.
