My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Nice to meet you! I am a 7-10 year old West Highland Terrier named Drew. I am currently searching for my forever family with the help of Westie Rescue of North Texas. WRNT took me in when I was homeless. They even took me to the dentist, the vet, and to the groomer. I am feeling like a new Westie! I am opening up a lot more with my foster parents. At first I was very shy and skittish and did not like to be touched, but now I like to interact with the humans and watch my foster brothers play.

I am hard of hearing and have the beginning stages of cataracts but that doesn’t slow me down. When I went to the vet they told me I have “cardiomyopathy” which is a fancy word for taking it easy and starting some new medicine for about a month. I shake a little from time to time but it usually only lasts from 3-5 seconds and then I’m good to go. I just had my teeth fixed, I had something called an “abscessed” tooth and had four teeth pulled. I really learned my lesson about brushing my teeth!

I may be a little older than some of these young pups, but I am house trained and know how to use the doggie door. I get along well with other dogs. I am not destructive and I’m very laid back. I know a lot of basic commands like “come”, “sit”, “stay”, “beg” and my foster parents can show you the hand signs for them. All I need is a little patience and a lot of love. Interested? Please fill out an application at www.wrnt.org. I’ll be waiting!

XOXO Drew
