The Scottish Terrier Club of Greater Dayton

Rescue  Page

 Please contact Cheryl Bates if you would like to consider these wonderful dogs for your family! 

Gaby and Pepper were born 7/21/2011. They are "mostly" Scottie - Pepper's nose is a little short and Gaby's color is too white, but they have the Scottie attitude with a capital A. They get along well with other dogs, are VERY interested in pursuing the cat, house trained - but need to be taught commands etc - and love to play. They are up-to-date on vaccines and have an appointment April 10 to be spayed. Pepper is more shy than Gaby and looks to her to lead the way. They have never been apart so they would like to find a home where they can stay

 

The Scottish Terrier Club of Greater Dayton will provide a placement service for the Scottish Terriers in need of a permanent home referred from owners, animal shelters, or animal groups/services.

Persons or animal rescue groups needing assistance with placement of a Scottish Terrier can contact the Rescue Coordinator Cheryl Bates

If you are interested in providing a permanent home for a Scottish Terrier, please go to:  http://www.stca.biz/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=58&Itemid=142    and complete an on-line application. Answer all of the questions even if some may seem redundant. Receipt of your on-line application will be acknowledged via email. A home visit will be made before placement of a rescue to verify the information on the application.

If you have never owned a Scottish Terrier, please go to: http://www.stca.biz/rescform-new.asp  and read the Message from the National Coordinators.

Every rescue Scottie will be examined by a veterinarian if there is not current (within twelve months) medical record available. All rescues are neutered or spayed before placement unless there are circumstances that prohibit this. The adoptive applicant and the Rescue Coordinator will set a date on or before the date of placement for this to be done.

Most of the Scottish Terriers referred for placement are males between the ages of four and eight years of age. Some rescues may need socialization and beginner obedience training.  Any behavior noted of the rescue needing attention will be indicated on the Adoption Agreement.

The adoptive applicant agrees to:

bulletMake a donation of $50 to the Scottish Terrier Club of Greater Dayton, plus the cost of any medical fees paid by the Club for the rescue.
bulletProperly house, feed, water, and care for this animal, to include provision of routine inoculations and a worm prevention program as established by a veterinarian.
bulletObtain veterinary examination, diagnosis, and treatment when the rescue becomes ill, injured, or when the rescue shows symptoms of becoming ill.
bulletExercise proper control and restraint over the rescue at all times and not permit the rescue to run at large.
bulletPurchase a license for the rescue as required by law and see that the rescue wears the license at all time.
bulletAssume responsibility for training, specifically basic housebreaking and training against chewing and digging.
bulletNot to use the rescue for any type of experimental breeding purposes.

The adoptive applicant further agrees to notify Rescue Coordinator if the rescue is subsequently lost or missing. The rescue will not be sold, traded, or given away to another person or agency. The adoptive applicant further agrees to notify the Rescue Coordinator of the death of the rescue.

The adoptive applicant accepts possession and ownership of the rescue at his/her own risk and releases the Scottish Terrier Club of Greater Dayton of any liability or damages cause by the rescue to any person or property.
