I am a petite, female, spay, Westie that my foster
Mom thinks is 5+ years old. I was found wandering
the streets in San Diego, so guess who picked me up......you
got it.....the Dog Catcher. Ya, gotta love my 'mug
shot' from the shelter. I waited for my owner to show
up and bail me out, but no one came for me. I was
getting anxious and very nervous. I would shake in
my kennel run. Nobody looked familiar to me, even
though lots of people stopped to see me. I was scared
that I might have to stay at the shelter permanently.
There were lots of barking dogs, I really needed some
piece and quiet.
Since nobody came for me, I was adopted out by a nice
volunteer with WR of CA. She talked really nice to
me. I liked her immediately. Well maybe it was the
cookies she gave me before we went 'bye-bye' in her
big car. I like riding in cars. I will have to admit,
I was having a 'bad haircut' day or should I say,
month before I came into foster care! She gave me
a bath, cut my 'monster toenails' and groomed me so
I was a really pretty Westie. My food was changed
over to the Westie Diet, and um boy I sure like it.
There are other Westies here at my foster Mom's and
they're okay, but I prefer to have her attention all
to myself.
I am crate trained, walk on a leash very well (actually
I put it in 'high gear'), can use a doggie door, and
am housetrained. Only have had a couple of 'accidents'
which my foster mom says weren't my fault entirely.
I had a major ear infection which didn't feel so good.
But my foster Mom, flushed it out and put some medication
in it which made it a whole lot better. Now I don't
have to shake my head so much. I like to lay right
by you and have my tummy scratched. I don't like it
when you stop.......I could just lay there forever!
You and me......
My foster Mom says I need a home with NO small kids,
no cats, other animals and someone home during the
day to keep me company. I am up to date with all my
shots (Rabies, Bordetella, DHLPP). I should stay on
the Westie Diet because it is very good for my skin
and will help my coat grow. I also need year around
flea medication (Frontline-Plus) because I came from
the shelter with some nasty fleas....they didn't last
too long here at my foster Moms! She doesn't let those
little boogers stay!
Can I come home to live with you? I promise I will
be on my best behavior......Love SARI
