Just a quick note to let all of those nice folks that were thinking about how great it would
be to have such a cute little guy to love, that I have been adopted and am now living in Arizona
with my new Forever Parents Katie and Frank.
I know that you probably had your heart set on me (who wouldn't), but take a look at my brothers and
sisters that are still waiting for their chance at a Forever home.
If you have the love to
give, you'll get it returned 100 times over. Take care and thanks again for your happy thoughts..
Wags and kisses.......Winston
Original Story Below
Hi Westie Lovers.....MY NAME IS "MURPHY".....
I am a male puppy, who's birthday
is 09-17-05, AKC Registered and come with my very own 3-generation pedigree certificate, been
altered and up to date with all my shots.
I just have not found my 'forever
family'....sigh! I was the definitely the wrong breed for my original owners. Even though
they loved me lots, they were not prepared or experienced in "Terr-ior" ownership. Guess
they did not think something so little and cute could demand so much attention. They already
had three young 'two legged' kids that needed obedience training (in my opinion), then they
added a small demanding puppy to the mix. Alas, it just did not work. Consistency and training
just ran a muck, so I just got way too big for my little britches (my foster Mom says that anyway).
Also, I didn't like the kids taking my toys or treats. I figured what is mine is mine and I wanted
to keep it that way. I am so am very loving to my owner and will try to protect them when
strangers come into the yard (I will bite, if not properly introduced).
I am crate trained,
sleep through the night, use a doggy door, love my many walks on a leash and like to explore outside.
My foster Mum says "too much exploring in the flower bed"...however. My foster mom says I am a
really good Boy, very loving, give kisses, turn over for tummy scratches. I am full of boundless
energy, am curious about everything and anything and have a demanding attitude, so... well... I AM
a Westie! Oh yeah, I am supposed to add...I sleep upside down, which always gets a chuckle
from my foster Dad.
I would like my forever home to be experienced Terrier owner(s),
with NO CHILDREN. I love to be busy, playing fetch, pulling out all my toys from from
the huge basket here at my foster mom's and sunning myself on the big deck. I will need to take
my adoptive family to obedience training, see I know my commands; set, stay, heel, lay down and
am learning paw shake. My foster Mom says I should have an enclosed safe back yard that I can
call mine. Will need lots of daily exercise, walks and play time. But my owner should be loving,
stable, and again with no 'two legged' kids....and I can not have a cat of my own. I enjoy
seeing them climb trees, figure I have done my good deed for the day! I promise I will try to
be a very good doggy, but remember I am a just a big puppy.....so give me a little 'wiggle' room.
Are you my forever home? Well then, get in that application. Where is the
application...you ask...download it from our website.
I am waiting by the front door for ya...can I just move in with all my chew toys and
balls?

As our rescue stories are available, we
place them on PetFinder and www.WestieRescueCA.com, when photos are available
they are also posted. We have a wonderful network of foster volunteers in California
and affiliate volunteers working hard in other states for our organization. So, often
times the stories and photos will follow after the initial post of a dog being available.
