Waiting Patiently

The following Border Terrier is anxiously waiting for her "forever" home

Canadian Border Terrier Welfare

Dee Dee

Dee Dee is an eight and a half year-old, petite, spayed female Border Terrier who has known some rough times.

She originally came from a puppy mill in Texas where, after losing a litter of puppies, she was supposed to be destroyed but fortunately North American Border Terrier Welfare were alerted by a kind-hearted individual.

She was in bad shape with severe allergies and badly infected ears - none the less, shortly after being rescued in 2007, she was adopted by a loving family in Canada - they worked really hard with her and with the help of a naturopath and a raw food diet (grain free) she blossomed into a healthy, happy little girl.

Unfortunately, the family's circumstances have changed and they have made the very hard decision that a new forever home will be in her best interests.

She needs a loving home that will continue with an appropriate diet to keep her allergy free. She is great with children but is a bit of an escape artist so must have a securely fenced yard.

Dee Dee is sweet and affectionate with people but does not get along with other female dogs and would do best as an only dog. While she does know how to play by herself, she appreciates having someone around to interact with.

If you think that you can offer the right "forever" home for Dee Dee, please contact:

North American Border Terrier Welfare

Contact: NABTW to enquire about any rescues they may have available.

If you feel you may have a home for a rescue Border, do not let distance dissuade you from making contact. If it is determined through communication and referrals that the right home is not a local home, NABTW, CBTW and Border Terrier rescue volunteers Nationwide will work together to help transport the lucky little dog to his/her forever home.

Others in need of a Home......

If you are ready to make the commitment to adopt a needy pup, adult or senior "NOW" and are willing to forego the possibility of a Border Terrier in favour of a purebred of another breed, a terrier mix or a simple mutt who desperately needs a "forever home", we urge you to visit www.petfinder.com
They list thousands of deserving dogs on their site and we are confident you will find just the companion you are searching for.

Although it is not the mandate of Canadian Border Terrier Welfare to foster and place Border Terrier mixes, we will use this section of our site to provide links to such dogs as appropriate.
It must be noted that CBTW makes no claim as to the temperament or health of such dogs nor the practices of the rescue Organization or Shelter where the dog is housed.
Should you see just the dog you are looking for in a distant shelter or rescue organization and if you are willing to work out the adoption details then it MAY be possible for us to play a role in arranging transport of the lucky little dog to his/her new forever home.
Ready Missy's story to see how this can work under the right circumstances.
