Story
We have never wavered from our original Mission Statement (Dated 2004) of helping Scotties no matter their age or health concerns. Skyler is proof of our continued commitment to the dogs that are many times left behind. This handsome wheaten boy came to us through absolutely no fault of his own. He has been loved by the same family since he was a pup. Skyler is 14+ yo and has had lifelong medical care. In addition, we have just had a full senior exam performed, including x-rays and ultra-sound, blood tests, urinalysis and fecal. The blood tests revealed some abnormal liver values, which led us to an ultra-sound of his liver. A biopsy revealed possible cancer, but only major surgery would reveal the true problem. In collaboration with our vets, we have declined surgery for Skyler, due to his age, a heart murmur and the possibility of spreading cancer cells to other organs. Even if we proceeded with surgery, there is only a very small chance surgery would remove the mass, hence our collective decision. Skyler's favorite pass-time is being near someone. He will follow you around the house, help you cook meals (hoping you will drop a tidbit) and lay at your feet when you are at a desk or computer. Such a love bug! Our commitment to dogs like Skyler cannot be fulfilled without your help. If you care to donate to Skyler's medical and fostering care, it would be appreciated. Donations may be made via www.paypal.com to email address: Donate@scottiekingdom.com or via USPS, to PO Box 551265 ~ Dallas, TX 75355 - - - - - - - All dogs adopted by Scottie Kingdom Rescue, Inc. have had a full medical exam by one of our licensed Veterinarians, which includes testing (and treatment, if necessary) for Heartworm disease, Lyme disease, Ehrlichia and Anaplasmosis, all necessary vaccinations, spay/neuter surgery, dental cleaning as necessary, microchipping, registration of the microchip, and any other medical needs each particular dog may need. Copies of all available medical records are transferred to you when the adoption is finalized. We prefer to adopt to families with past Scottie, Westie, Terrier experience, but realize this isn’t always possible. We do NOT ship our pets. If you have that special place in your heart, and in your home, for a Scottie (or any of our other available rescue dogs), please visit us in Dallas for an in person meet & greet session with our available dogs. If you have existing dogs, they should travel to Dallas with you, so we can be assured that they will be compatible with the new addition to your family. Please contact us at Rescue@scottiekingdom.com to receive an Adoption Application or for more information on our Adoption process. Also, please take the time to visit our website www.scottiekingdom.com for additional information. We sometimes receive several applications on the same dog. Our goal is to place the dog in the best home possible, based on his/her needs, personality and past history. Please note: Adoptions are not done on a first come, first served basis. Submitting an application does not guarantee the adoption of any dog. We are looking for the best available home for each of our rescue dogs. Thank you for your understanding, and for considering adoption! We are not supported by your tax dollars or public grants, rather, we rely on donations to help us continue our rescue work for animals that are in need. Donations may be made via PayPal to email address: Donate@scottiekingdom.com or via USPS, to PO Box 551265 ~ Dallas, TX 75355 Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.
