Incomplete applications are filed until a volunteer has time to contact the applicant to obtain the missing information. Unfortunately, in an all volunteer organization, this could take quite a while, delaying the approval process.

Restrictions on Adoptions (and Reasons):
Westie Rescue does not place dogs in homes with children younger than 7 years old.
Rescue does not place Westies in homes with resident cats unless the dog is proven to be cat friendly. (Westies were developed to hunt predators the size of cats. Typically, o this day, most Westies have retained the instinct to hunt and kill such animals. For the safety of people's cats, we do not place in homes where one resides.)
