We love to see our 'Retirees' go to good and loving furr-ever homes. Our dogs are beautiful, sweet, and affectionate individuals, and they deserve to have a home where they are the one and only love of someone's heart. They've shared enough, long enough. It pleases us greatly to offer them, as well-loved and spoiled rotten pets to those who will appreciate such lovely belles and handsome beaus.
The retirees will be up to date on all shots and wormer, and are microchipped. They are in good health, have been spayed or neutered, and are good natured, loving pets. They are NOT house broken, though most are very well crate trained. When they are in the house, they are kept in a training crate (English Mastiff size 3 ft wide x 4 1/2 ft deep x 4 ft tall). They come out of their crate and straight out the doggie door to go potty and play in the fenced exercise yard. They have never been given the opportunity to get in the trash, chew up my shoes, dig a hole in the couch, etc. They have rarely been on a leash because they have been allowed to run free in a fenced area their whole life. We live on a dead-end dirt road, so they have seen very little traffic, and they don't see a lot of strangers ... so you will have to teach them those lessons. Since they have always been here, with me, they will be slow to warm up to their new home, and I'm sure, will be quite confused for a while. The previous Westies that we have sent to new homes seem to take at least 2 months to really acclimate to their new environments. I think they think they have been kidnapped! You will have to be patient with them, and understand that these are drastic changes for doggies that have spent their entire lives in one place with the folks on the farm.
We ask a $200 re-homing fee for our retirees. I want a vet reference, so be prepared to send me your vet's phone number and address. Tell your vet to expect my call and give the vet permission to speak candidly to me about you and the care you give your animals. We also ask that you tell us about yourself, your home, and the future you can offer. If you live far away and want the lady or gent delivered to you, you should expect to pay for the transportation expense (varies by location). I will gladly make those arrangements with A-Plus Pet Delivery. Otherwise, you are welcome to pick them up from the farm!
