Westie Rescue of North Texas exist solely to rescue and rehabilitate abused, abandoned, neglected, homeless and surrendered West Highland White Terriers. Our Westies are provided with the attention, care and medical treatment necessary, including spaying/neutering until a permanent home can be found. Through the commitment of our volunteers, WRNT also focuses on education of the public regarding puppy mills and responsible dog ownership, including spaying/neutering, training and humane care of Westies and other pets.
WRNT maintains a file of information on prospective adopters within the Dallas Fort Worth area of Texas and on what Westies they may be willing to consider. The first step of the process is to complete the adoption application form. The application must be completed by the person whom will be adopting the dog and legally responsible for it. Your application will be reviewed once you complete and submit it, if this is tentatively accepted by the Board of Directors the next step is initiated. A WRNT Director conducts a vet check (if you have a vet reference listed on application). A WRNT Director will conduct a home visit, this allows us to get to know you and the other members of your household so we can assess which personality dog will be a good match for you. It also allows us to decide if we feel you are a good candidate for adoption and that your home is safe environment for one of our dogs. If all of the above pass, a meet-n-greet is scheduled for the rescue and the family to ensure it is a perfect match. If we all feel it is a successful match then the adoption can be scheduled. If it is not a successful match then your application will be kept on file for up to 6 months and reviewed as further new dogs come into the program.
