When Terry first saw 8-year-old Kolby's picture on the Westie Rescue website, it was love at first sight for her. Beautiful little Kolby had been relinquished to Westie Rescue because his owner no longer wanted him. Kolby had lost his sight due to cataracts he developed as a result of being diabetic.
You might remember 9 year old Petey from a past newsletter. In his previous home a botched surgery left him with an eye that didn't close properly, a condition that caused dryness, made him uncomfortable and would only have worsened. After corrective surgery, Petey was adopted and into a home with Daisy another WRN alumni. Here is the latest from his forever home.
Four-year-old Bravo was relinquished by his family to a Denver shelter because he was blinded by congenital cataracts and they found him to be too much of a burden. Although the shelter tried to find him a forever home, the behaviors he had developed to manage his blindness, proved to be an obstacle.
Ned and Catherine contacted us shortly after they lost their 13-year- old Westie, Jake. They,and their 4-year-old Westie, Fenway, were really missing Jake and needed a buddy.
Not long afterward, a floppy-eared Westie named Buddy joined our program. Buddy had been raised with another dog and was looking for a family with a dog playmate. We introduced the boys and it was a perfect match. They recently moved to the Northwest and we received this email update.
