Oklahoma Westie Rescue (OWR) is a

(click

a copy of our IRS 501(c)(3) approval letter) dedicated to the protection of all
West Highland White Terriers. We are staffed with
volunteers and all expenses are paid by OWR or through
donations. We network with other rescue organizations in
order to facilitate any services provided by OWR or any
other rescue groups.
Where do our dogs come from? They are
sometimes released by their owners, who can no longer take
care of them. Some are found in city animal shelters, lost or
abandoned in the streets or rescued from puppy mills. We
transport them and place them in foster homes. They are taken
to the veterinarian for a physical examination, neutering,
vaccinations and treatment of any injuries or, illnesses. After medical evaluation and assessment of temperament, the
dog becomes available for adoption and is listed on our
website. The search for a forever home begins!
There is too much cruelty in
this world. If we can alleviate but a little of it through
our efforts, then all our time and money is well spent.
