In Loving Memory-
Annabella- June 9th -2ooo-May 10th-2008.
We miss you pretty girl..... Wait for us at the bridge. |
We are pleased to announce
our affiliation with Scottie Kingdom Rescue, Inc
* We're Changing The Way You Think of Rescue *
|
Our goal at North Florida Scottish Terrier
Rescue is to rescue Scottish Terriers from
local humane societies and abusive homes.we also to give peace of mind to owners who may
have to surrender their Scottie, due to changes
in the home.
|
| We are the Scottish Terrier Rescue Organization
for the North Florida Region. We are a non-profit
group that is independently funded. |
| NFSTR maintains a list of candidates who are
investigated by ourselves prior to approval. Our
approval process includes a home visit by us (where
all members of the adoptive family must be present)
plus a veterinarians referral if possible. |
| Generally, our list is comprised of persons
who have previously owned a Scottie and understand
the terrier breed. Our rescue re-homing is
based on compatible circumstances, never on
a first come first served basis. We do not practice
euthanasia and we absorb the expense of housing
the pet until a suitable home is found. That
said, we always have a waiting list of approved homes
for Scotties. |
| Our spay/neuter policy, requires us to have
the surgery performed while the dog is in our care.
Only in cases where, for age or medical reasons,
it is prudent to delay surgery, will we alter
our policy. In such cases we will require that
our adoptive family agree a date with us by
when the surgery must be performed and we require
proof that the procedure was completed. In such
cases, we will not place the pet in a home with an
opposite sex pet that has not been altered. |
North Florida Scottish Terrier Rescue absorbs
all costs of medical and corrective treatments
required for our dogs before placement, however,
we do charge an adoption fee for the Scottie, as
this helps to offset our costs.
|
We prefer to adopt our Scotties locally, however, we realize that sometimes that is not possible. If you are approved for one of our Scotties you will need to travel to Jacksonville, Florida to pick up your new addition. We do not ship our Scotties.
|
| We are 100% committed to finding our Scotties
loving, caring homes, regardless of the amount
of time required to do so. |
| Currently, we serve Florida and Southern
Georgia and have over 10 years experience with
the breed. |
| If you are still interested in
adopting a Scottie, please contact us via email or telephone so we can forward you our application. |
| PLEASE CONTACT US IF YOU KNOW OF A SCOTTIE
THAT IS IN NEED OF RESCUE, WE WILL HELP ANYWAY
WE CAN... We are also willing to work with other
rescue organizations. |
