Twinkie's Story

Twinkie is a 3 year old Westie who came into rescue after his owner died suddenly. He’s a sweet boy who just needs another home where he can be loved and cared for properly. His ear tips are floppy so can be standing up or take turns flopping over but it’s very cute and he’s still got the westie look.<br/>Twinkie is healthy, neutered, vaccinated, with no medical issues according to our vet. He’s a higher energy dog, he could easily be a good walking, hiking or jogging companion. <br/>He lived with another dog and cat in his original home, although he could be happy as an only dog too.<br/>We’re looking for someone who owns a home in the northeast, fence or leash walk ok, although he’s used to a fenced backyard. Terrier experience is akways a plus! No young children. He’s accustomed to having someone home with him, so a young retiree or someone working from home would be ideal. <br/>If you are interested in learning more about Twinkie, please contact Erica Cerny at ecerny@optonline.net or 973-361-6790. Foster location is NY

Scottish Terrier Club of Greater New York Rescue's Adoption Policy
The Scottish Terrier Club of Greater New York Rescue adopts to applicants in the northeast US. Our adoption process consists of completing our preliminary application online at https://stcgny.com/rescue/how2adopt/ for a review. If our club's adoption requirements are met, you would complete a longer application, and we will check the references you provide on that form. Finally, a home visit is scheduled to see where the dog would be living. Please feel free to contact us by email to ask any questions, or for more information to help you make your adoption decision. Our club has set the adoption fee at $350, but for older dogs or those needing continuing medical care, we use a sliding scale for fees, as we understand the adopter will have additional expenses. We prefer to complete the screening process prior to meeting the dog you are interested in, but you can meet them first if that is more convenient for you. But, please understand that you cannot take the dog home with you until the screening process has been completed and your application has been approved by the rescue committee. Your cooperation will speed up the process! Our rescues are spayed or neutered before adoption, unless there is an age or medical reason prohibiting this. They are examined by our vet, vaccinated, checked for intestinal parasites, tested for heartworm and 3 types of local tick borne illnesses. Many are microchipped. They are professionally groomed if that's possible. Older dogs or anyone undergoing surgery will have full bloodwork done to verify their general health status. Other procedures may also be done as indicated before they are available for adoption. Copies of all these medical records, as well as any we are able to get from their past history, are provided at adoption time. You will be asked to sign a meet and greet form before meeting them, and an adoption contract if you adopt them. Please ask if you have any questions, we're happy to share any information about ourselves and our rescues!
