CURRENT FOSTER DOGS

Our current foster dogs are shown below. See their stories at http://westierescue-mi.com/dogs-in-care/

We seldom place outside of the state. Occasionally a harder to place dog may find a home in a neighboring state but due to the difficulties in enforcing contracts, doing home visits, getting the dog transported back to us if the adoption doesn’t work out, etc., it is rare that a dog would go to a distant state.

FOSTER HOMES DESPERATELY NEEDED!!
If you have it in your heart to foster a Westie, please go to the link above called “Volunteering”. We hate to have to say “no” to any Westie in need but we don’t have the foster space to continue taking them in at this rate. While we may not seem to have a lot of dogs when you look above, at times we have had as many as ten. They tend to come in groups and it puts a real strain on our resources. If you can foster even once or twice a year, it would be a huge help and may even save lives. Please give it serious consideration! A Westie NEEDS YOU!

WESTIE RESCUE MICHIGAN INC. MISSION STATEMENT

Westie Rescue Michigan is a State of Michigan non-profit organization.   We are currently applying for 501c3 Federal Tax Status .   Our primary goal is to be the safety net for all homeless Michigan Westies who do not have a responsible breeder who will stand behind them in their time of need.  We continue to function as the Rescue arm of the West Highland White Terrier Club of Southeastern Michigan.

We accomplish this goal by caring for those in need through our foster-care system, supplying medical, emotional and behavioral care for these animals and eventually finding permanent homes for those who are safely adoptable and euthanizing those determined to be unsafe or too sick to have a good quality of life. We spay/neuter all animals who come through our program, prior to adoption unless medically counter indicated.

We advocate abolishing pound seizure and are against animal cruelty. Westie Rescue Michigan supports humane education programs for the public and encourages respect and compassion for all animals. We raise funds to support our efforts and, on occasion, to support similar efforts of other groups. We may also use these funds to support medical research meant to benefit the breed.
