Millicent

March 2008: 

Millie is a precious little 5 year-old former breeding female who came to WRT as part of a commercial breeder surrender transport.  Even with all of the afflictions she came to us with (i.e., a severe ear infection, paw infection, skin infection, hook and whip worms, dental disease and severe yeast in her ears and paws), she still managed to wag her little tail and seemed instantly so grateful for being out of the hell she’d been subjected to for the first five years of her life.  Of the four who came us to on this transport, she has socialized at her foster home the quickest and easiest.

She, along with the others, spent many days at the vets office, just getting enough daily meds into her system so she would be healthy enough to move on to a foster home.

Her foster mom reports she is doing so very well, and they are happy to keep her as long as it take for us to match her up with the best possible furever home.  She interacts very well with the family’s other Westie (one of our adoptees) and the other Spaniel mix.  She also gets along with the family cat, which is a plus!  She loves to play in the yard with the other dogs and kids, but is just as content to be held in one’s lap for hours on-end.

The bottom line is that Westie Rescue of Tennessee, with the generous help of WestieMed, gave this precious little girl a second chance.  We are so very grateful for WestieMed’s generosity.
